Q: Good morning, 5i. I was about to buy some Whitecap Resources when it was announced they are one of three players (CNQ and Venturion Oil being the other two) purchasing Barrick Gold's energy assets. Does this look like a good move for Whitecap (and the other two as well), or should I hold off and wait for the dust to settle? Many thanks for your valuable service. John.

Q: WJX seems to be down over $1.00. Any reason that you know of? I thought it was benefiting from the flood situation in Calgary and have held for a long time now. Perhaps this the end of the rise in price?
This information is invaluable Thank you

Q: Hi 5i,

Your thoughts on FRC-TSX (Canyon Services)? Looks like a good yield play (5%), but i hear it's also got capital appreciation potential.

Q: I'm frustrated with my holdings in emerging markets (XCH and XID). They aren't big positions for me,but is there upside potential from here given the risk/reward. Why invest in emerging markets in the first place? Am I not getting indirect emerging market exposure by investing in the US and Canadian market? Why take the additional risk with what I see as terrible returns?

Q: Hi 5i,

On July 22 you mentioned the following about gold:

"Gold is a tough call. We think gold equities may be weak for a bit longer, but the commodity is starting to attract physical buying. Watch $1338, it is a key moving average price. Above that, gold may break out. The equities are cheap, and have staged a very good July recovery. Bottoms are tough to call, but we are likely close to a longer recovery."

What are your thoughts about the price of silver and silver plays like Silver Wheaton (SLW)?

Thanks for the great service!
