Q: Hi:
In my RRSP, I have some bonds, XTR and Mawer Balanced fund
I still have some cash in my RRSP
I am thinking of adding some Sun Life and MFC because if the interest rate continues to edge up, the bonds will decline but the insurance company could do well, it is logical ?
thanks!
I continue to find your service very useful and keep recommending it to others !! If you had to buy 2 stocks of those you cover (or others you like) with the greatest upside potential, what would they be ?
Q: Hi Peter & 5i: I’m confused by Dualex (DXE) and Africa Hydrocarbons (NFK), probably within a few weeks of test results from their Tunisian oil well joint venture. It seems all the preliminary log results look promising and “hydrocarbon shows” have been noted but you don’t know if you have a commercially viable well until you flow test it and they are still just about to do that. Meanwhile some of the numbers are not adding up for me. I think NFK has a slightly smaller interest in the project (47.5% for NFK: 52.5% for DXE). NFK had 5% more shares outstanding and just today announced a private placement with Canaccord that could float another 18% more shares potentially, at 18 cents a unit (with each unit including one share and one half warrant good at 30 cents). On the same day the NFK share price catches up to DXE’s and both close with a bid/ask spread of 0.245/0.25. As I understand it NFK doesn’t really have any other assets aside from this JV. DXE on the other hand has a Hungarian nat gas property that has cash-flowed a couple of million $ annually, which while not overwhelming is at least more than nothing. So how does more dilution, less of an interest, and less other assets add up to an equivalent share price? What is NFK’s rationale for doing this financing on the eve of testing the well? Were they completely out of money and caught in a bind? Or is this a signal that they are not so confident in the well test after all. If they aren’t confident, what is Canaccord doing? A dry well means the $0.30 warrants probably never get exercised. Are they going to immediately flip all of the private placement shares for a couple of pennies profit? Or is this NFK maybe giving Canaccord a sweet deal now to lock up a more favorable financing deal that would follow on positive well test results? Can you make this story coherent?
