Q: Hi Peter,
I know we have discussed this company before (NML), it looks like a great long term story and I realize it's more of a macro story(we require China picking up etc...). Any thoughts today as the shares have closed below $1? Thanks.

Q: Hey guys. I am not familiar at all with Jovian Capital and probably wont buy it but the curiosity is killing me. They recently announced a special $3 a share dividend but the shareprice has only jumped 70 cents. Is there something I am missing? I noticed in May they also paid a special $4 dividend that didn't really move the stock either. Your insights are appreciated.

Q: Cliffs Natural Resources (CLF)trades in New York. Dividend yield is over 7%. This stock is down over 4$ today at close to $30. This is North Americas largest producer of iron ore pellets and I know there is some problem with iron ore prices declining. This was an $80 stock a year or so ago. Ian

Q: Peter,
I'd like your opinion on this "new generation" of dividend paying oil juniors. Speciifically, I am interested in hearing your thoughts on Twin Butte Energy at the current levels and how it compares with Renegade Petroleum (looks like Renegade is setting themselves up to be quite similar to Twin Butte).

Q: You mention that you favour other ETF's over EIT.UN. Which did you have in mind? I note that EIT.UN trails TSX and CDZ over all periods from recent months to YTD to 10 years, except 4 year.

Q: In reference to your answer to Mary Jean, Nov. 18, I always thought the div. was paid to holders of record at the close of business on the record date, not the ex dividend date. Thank you

Q: GCL (Collabor) Is this a good candidate and a good time to buy this stock for a yield oriented portfolio?
It is low beta, pays a healthy 8.79% dividend and is trading near the bottom of its 5 year range.

Thanks for your help with this decision.

Q: Good afternoon,
Some very astute investors (eg. Rick Rule) seem to like Altius (ALS) a great deal. However the stock has not performed for a very considerable period. Would you retain a position in this company?
Thank you.
