Q: Due to the global rubber shortage, I'm thinking it might be a decent time to enter this segment. I'd appreciate your opinion on this, and also your suggestion on which of these three companies you would suggest the most. Thanks.

Q: I find inside buying is potentially worthwhile evidence of future prospects of a company. Just a hunch, but I am not sure inside buying or selling can tell me much about gold companies, especially not with the more established companies. Gold does seem quite out of favour, and so I think it would be worthwhile to park some of my idle cash (I am 25% cash, because I just am not finding too many bargains) in one or two large cap and small cap companies: The chart and divy of Yamana looks intriguing. Can you suggest any up and coming junior miners?

Q: Long time watcher of PBL. It's pulled back a little from its high. Does it's current valuation make it a little more attractive in your opinion or is it still expensive compared to its own historical levels? Do you like it as part of a long-term hold in a growth portfolio?

Q: Could I have your opinion on the longevity pension fund. Is it safe? Would it be a good investment for a 65 year old person? Thank you.

Q: My question is in regards to your information about US$ Dividends. I contacted Questrade where I have an account and they were pretty clear that if I have these stocks with the TSX, then they get paid in CA$. Here is what they said:

"I will like to let you know that we are not exchanging your dividend. We are only depositing the currency we received into your account. And I have double checked with our team and they confirm we can't change the currency of the dividend or choose them.
I am sorry you will need to contact investor relation of the company to help you with this. Please note we only deposit as what we receive from the company."

This is quite different from what the article on your home page says. Am I misunderstanding? Could you please explain. Thanks so much!

secondary question: how do you view warrant investing as an alternative to options investing?
