Q: Hi Peter and 5i: DualEx (DXE) is a micro cap oil and gas co that has been in process of drilling its first well on a Tunisian property that it has hoped would be a company-maker. My question is on its trading and upcoming release of drill results. It has been trading in a downtrend since before it commenced drilling, culminating in a plunge to a 52-week low at 7.5 cents contemporaneous with the announcement that the well drilling was complete and that the next step would be the wireline logging of the well-hole. There hasn't actually been any news about whether it's a dry hole or signs of any hydrocarbon production potential. The closer it gets to news, the less the market seems to want to be there. Is this more likely an indication of an insider information leak or is it just saying something about current market psychology and the appetite for this kind of high risk event? Does the company just disappear if it is a dry hole? They had made noises about plans for drilling 4 or 5 different targets on the property. Are those likely contingent on initial drilling success? Thanks, as always!

Q: FTS.PR.G I have a question about this pref share which generally trades within a tight range. That hasn't been the case over the last three quarters in comparison to a range of similar investments. Is this an isolated case or has this pref being down graded over the last six months?

Q: Peter, I think for most SC shares at this price offer a safe 3-4% return in about 6 months

The deal Drug Mart shareholders will have the ability to choose whether to receive $61.54 in cash or 1.29417 Loblaw common
so
So worse case today buy at 59.69 sell in 6 months at 61.54.Profit of 1.85
Or 1.85/59.69x100= 3.09 % over 6 months
Add a total of a possible 2 dividends (xdiv in sept and dec) that is an additional 57 cents
Total then 1.85 + .57 = 2.42 guaranteed. A return of 4% over 6/12 or 8% annualized

Better case L is higher, eg 52.00 its 52 week high then 1.29x52= 67.00 a return of 13% or 26 annualized

In fact today L is 48.71 (48.71x1.29417=63.00)

Q: To all those who complain to 5i with regards to stock ratings and safety of stock dividends and such, Peter and his group, have the search symbol link on the right. As an investor/trader, do your own due diligence on researching the stocks you acquire by searching the symbol of interest first - recent comments with regards to WIN and how could 5i have an A rating are a good example - If you read previous responses on WIN you would see it had potential, but also Peter emphasized investor frustration with the stock in the past and highlighted risks too. For the record I invested in WIN, and still hold it understanding the risks for my situation. - Cheers, and keep up the great research & related advice service you provide.
