Q: Hi Guys,
Coeur mining and Teck Resources are both under performer's who's share took quite a bit this week on bad news. Do you consider these companies fatally flawed, would you hold if already in a portfolio, or would you cut and run to more promising resource plays? On that note do you have any suggestions on miners / resource companies?

Q: Good day and thanks for the great service. My question is mfc4644 has outperformed vti since inception and i believe that is due to its higher tech weighting. Going forward do you believe it would be better to hold mfc4644 or vti - or - mfc4644 and usmv in equal weighting which i believe would outperform vti. Looking for your sage advise...Thank you..Gene

Q: Vermillion (VET) is getting hammered this week and again today after an analyst said they will have to cut their dividend by 50%. The company says no way. I am wondering if this is so terrible for the company. They would still be paying over 8% and have more money to repay debt. The price seems too low and I think it will rebound strongly when the panic passes. What do you think?
Thanks.

Q: I am thinking to take a position in natural gas producers. The past 5 years have been poor and this may be a good entry point. I feel that a long term hold may be worthwhile especially because of the future potential of LNG.
What do you think of the sector and do you have any recommendations.
What do you think of AR and UNG. Thank you

Q: I have $4,200 "invested" in WILD , in my TFSA account. Currently I am down $3,600 with only $600 residual value. Thinking of accepting the full loss, selling and putting the $600 to some other use but wonder if I'm better off just holding on at this point. With no tax loss benefit, which way would you go here?
Thanks for your thoughts,
Mark

Q: Thanks for your answer on the above but while it identifies the companies involved it does not address the reasons for the parabolic nature of this months rise, other than those companies prices also rose. But why?? It looks as though somebody/something goosed the sector as the gain is abnormal. A change in (US) policy? A virus issue impairing China's competitive ability? A technical development? Can you contribute to this analysis. Industry progress prior to February was consistent with prior periods; February was not. Thank you.
