Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Hi Peter…Today’s headline “Strategic Investors Exercise Warrants Early”. The stock is up slightly today in a down market likely due to encouraging drill results and today’s posting the news about the investors exercising the warrants. Do you know if Eric Sprott has been exercising his warrants (assuming he is a strategic investor and has warrants)! Do these warrants trade? A couple of days ago a press release stated that for one hole the visible gold in the core was becoming “coarser”, suggesting the hole is close to penetrating the centre of the ore body. I assume “coarser” means the gold crystals are becoming larger. Do you know if that is logical or just wishful thinking? I own slightly more than 2,000 shares and am thinking about buying some more. I generally don’t purchase warrants but might reconsider.
The news suggests veins at depth so production costs will be substantial - if it ever reaches that stage.

Q: Looking for tax-loss proxy ideas for CAN: DCBO and US: NXT, SMCI, and PLTR. If there are simply better names to consider as replacements, those would be appreciated as well. Thank you!

Q: I'm a bit overweight on Energy. I'm also wondering if energy macro is deteriorating. I was thinking can oilseeds would be positive with transcontinental opening. But now I hear China demand is low, and if usa is in recession also not good. I assume canada in recession too. Can you help sort the macro out? Do you see oil prices generally low and deteriorating on the next 1-2 years? Or will demand be there?

Q: Good Morning all.

I currently have a portfolio weighting of 18.1% financials versus the recommended 15%. Individual stocks at 1/2 to full positions include the 4 banks, SLF, ING, MA, TSU, ONEX, BN and BAM. (I do need to consolidate I think).

All have been doing more or less what I would expect; except ONEX. It has been a frustrating stock to own, with a downtrend for the years, in my view, a management enrichment program.

The question - would it make more sense to shed this stock and perhaps one of the banks, then roll the funds into a BN or BAM.

Thanks as always!

Dave

Q: I’m looking to diversify the fixed income portion of my portfolio. I don’t have any bonds/treasuries so was looking at TLT and XLB. Can I get your thoughts on these and others you could recommend?

Q: Hello Peter,
I have noticed today with some stocks trading on US exchanges showing gain of 3 or 4 percent, yet the same stock on canadian shows negative. For example, ENB traded 2 percent higher on US exchange but negative half percent on canadian .. the time stamps were the same.. I thought the stock price will reflect the exchange rate but the gain or loss should be the same.. are you able to assist? Thanks
