Q: Hi Peter and Team
Thanks for the great Website and Question Forum!!
Can you comment on AvenEx (AVF)? Its most recent quarter seems to indicate that they are in big trouble with current commodity prices and are almost certainly going to cut the dividend.
Can they survive this?
Thanks!

Q: re: cus

given the weak quarter that was just reported, should one wait for the next quarterly results to confirm managements positive guidance for the remainder of the year - before considering adding to one's position?

or is this a stock that one can comfortable add to on current share price weakeness?

thanks...

Q: Hey, guys. Any thoughts about aet.un? Are their prospects any better than plt.un which have been not good, to put it kindly, and egl.un, which I guess is still a wait and see story?

Q: Hi Peter and team, have you ever come across TVI Pacific, TVI? Head office is in Calgary and had a couple interesting board members in the past. Something strange about this company! Just wondering if you had any input on this one.
Also, what are your thoughts on BTB.UN? Especially if interest rates remain low for a while still, 8+% yield.
Thanks, Hussein

Q: Hello Peter,

I own canadian helicopter. I just looked at the stock price in Globe and Mail. There are two canadian helicopter stocks (chl.a and chl.b). 'a' went down 66 cents and 'b' went up 2.49. How come one went up and the other went down? 'b' is classed as a variable voting share on the canadian helicopter website. What does this mean, and is it better to own type 'a' or 'b' stock? susanna

Q: I would be very interested if you could shed light on the process of equity raises in Canada. Specifically the potential conflict between a good investment banking client and a less than stellar company. Also, if you could shed light on financing cycles and how to know if "too much paper" is in a sector or space (or not enough). Much appreciated, Thanks.

Q: Hi, I'm wondering about Currie Rose - it was talked about alot before the recession on BNN but like all juniors it pretty much crashed. Illiquid, small, needing continuous finance like all juniors, but do you have any viewpoints on it? Could it one day become like a Goldquest? Thx.

Q: Hi Peter,

Can you give me your opinion on MND and GG. Both are resource companies and have been recommended in the past by Sprott. MND had some pretty decent results in the last quarter. Do you think a position can be taken in both or any of these? Thanks

Q: Hi Peter and team, STO and NML just released their operating and financial results for second quarter and first six months of 2012. Any further thoughts or insight on these companies since your last comments on them?
It would be great to read your comments on NVS and PRY after they release their second quarter results some time this month as well.
Thanks, Hussein

Q: Hi Peter

I have asked about PHX before as have others. But what do you make of the stock performance? In February they had a big increase in the dividend. The stock spiked up and then went into a continuous decline and has now declined to well below the price before the dividend. I looked at the RBC research report and the metrics look pretty decent compared with other drillers. Even so the have a "sector perform" on it. So is This a value trap or a bargain. If it is sound, it must be tempting as a takeover target. It has certainly declined more 20% which is your threshold to be concerned in your recent article.
