Q: CFN: The recent share offering (I believe) was at $9.75. With the price now at $9.12 or so, would this be a buying opportunity or is this looking more like "time to leave the party" in view of the decline in share value. I am under water and ignored my bias to sell when I was only down 10%. Now I am down 15% and trying to see into the crystal ball. But it is not giving me any guidance. Hopefully you can. Thank you.

DC.A announced a corporate restructuring trough an Arrangement Agreement with DREAM Limited and others which is very hard to follow. Should this be good or bad for the DC.A share price?

Q: I am hearing that gold bullion dealers in Vancouver are "out of stock on bullion" and only taking orders if you pay 3 weeks in advance! Buying of physical has evidently been VERY strong during this pullback in gold prices and as Sprott recently suggested, goes contrary to previous Tops in the gold market. What is your take? Thanks.

Q: I'm looking at a company that does make large acquisitions, with their last major purchase, they didn't increase their share count of the company it bought. However, this past quarter they have increased their share count of another company by 360%, I would see that as an indicator that they want to buy it, but since they haven't done that in the past, could it mean something else.

Q: I would like to add a pipe line (defensive stock with dividend) to my portfolio. I see that in your model portfolio you hold Inter Pipeline and Enbrdige. Should I run with these, or do you have any other opportunities I should consider? If I want to add a 5% position, should I split between the two or do you currently favour one postion over the other? Thanks.
