Q: Peter,
What happened to the Sherritt bonds due November 15,2021? Did they get paid out, refinanced or was there a haircut ?
Thank you,
Paul
Q: Thanks 5I team for all the insights. It is very helpful. I am planning to sell Sherritt and American Hotels with a big loss in my RESP portfolio rather than wait for any potential recovery, if any. Is that a good plan? Looking to replace it with a good growth stock. The time horizon is 5 to 6 years. I am fine with taking the risk and being aggressive. It will be about 3.5% of the RESP portfolio. Can you please suggest such a good growth stock with that time Horizon? I have no sector or country preference for this.

Q: I don't own Sherritt thankfully. You note today (July 31) in your response to a question on CNC that nickel prices may strengthen due to electric battery demand. Do you think this will help S or are is the company too far gone? S used to own a nickel mine or smelter to Cuba. Does S still have nickel resources in Cuba and if so do you think a Democratic victory this November will ease restrictions on the import of Cuban nickel into the United States? Any comments on S's cobalt warrants? Are the holders in the money?
Thanks,
Jim
Q: S has issued a press release today on restructuring their debt. I have some bonds from them due in 2021 that I understand will now be due in 2027. There are some other related clauses in there that are difficult to figure out. Any way that can read the press release and figure out what the deal is? Thanking you in advance, Martin
Read AnswerQ: I bought a bond from S in 2015 that originally was to mature in 2018, but unfortunately was extended to 2021. In the meantime I have a 56% paper loss. I saw today that S stock price is at $0.18(!). Is there a more than likely chance that Sherritt will go under and if so, is there a way to estimate how much of my principal I can get back? Should I just sell this bond even if it’s in my RRSP? Thanks, Martin

Q: My self-service broker has in its inventory Sherritt bonds, having 7-1/2 years to maturity on 11 Oct 2025. The (annualized) yield to maturity is 9.8% .
To redeem the bonds at full value on the maturity date, Sherritt does not have to do well : it just needs to survive without defaulting on its debt.
I am fully aware that these bonds are not suitable for the safe fixed-income part of my portfolio, but rather would be lumped in with my equity investments in terms of risk.
What is your opinion as to the probability that Sherritt will, at a minimum, "at least barely survive" so that they would be able to redeem the face value of the bonds in 2025?
Thanks!
Q: Hello 5i team! Can I please have your opinion on S. Would you buy it at this price? What are your thoughts on the outlook for nickle in general? Base metals?
Thanks!
