Q: Hi Peter and Team, is there any possibility of getting your help on Royal Nickel Corp, RNX? Any thoughts and insight on this one would be greatly appreciated. I bought this one a while back due to management teams background, for a long term hold at 1.20. Thanks!

Q: Bear raids, market manipulation, IROC, And the like....

Peter i own some T.ORT (comment if you think it a good or bad investment) last week it had an interesting "flash crash" markets opened and within a few minutes (i am sure you can get the records) ORT crashed to $1.33 from about $2.50. The volume taking it down was supposedly only about 250K shares (not enough to do this damage). 4M shares ended trading that day, IROC (whose side are they on) cancelled or repriced orders to $1.90 and claimed it was a CIBC "fat finger" trade. i believe it was criminal trading using CIBC likely out of country beyond IROC control and related to naked shorting, etc. I've seen this happen before (DNDN was the most famous example just before approval news), from your experience what is typically behind "flash crash" and should i be worried.

Q: Hi Peter and 5i: Can you please update your comments from last May on Absolute Software (ABT) and maybe expand on the suggestion that their "space" may not be as attractive as they think it is? You indicated that they have a long term view and a definite niche but I'm wondering about whether their stock makes sense as a long term hold. Thanks.

Q: On July 28, 2012, you were kind enough to comment on Hardwoods Distribution (HWD). The earnings continue to surprise, and the stock has risen to new highs today. Q4 earnings are scheduled to be released in mid-March. HWD has fantastic leverage to the US housing market.Coremark initiated coverage this week, the first to do so since 2009. I anticipate even higher earnings and perhaps an increase in dividends. Would you speculate on HWD at these levels?

Thank you.

Q: Hi Peter and 5i: I'm wondering if a buying opportunity is materialising on Acadian Timber (ADN). After an unprecedented spike upward from its rising slope it has fallen back through its 50 day moving average. Meanwhile WFT and IFP.A have held in much more closely to their 52 wk highs and presumably the US housing recovery macro story behind it all is still intact. Is there an important piece of the picture that I am missing that would differentiate ADN from the others? Would you still see ADN as a reasonable buy at this point? Thanks!
