Q: Re: Passport Potash (PPI) and the holbrook basin.
I would appreciate your thoughts on what the Prospect Global and Sichuan $2 billion purchase and sale agreement might mean for PPI as they're 1) neighbors on the basin, 2) PPI appears to have land concessions within Prospect Global's concessions.

Q: What makes a stock have value?
I've only been investing for about 4 years.
Is a stock valuable because that's the price we believe someone would buy the entire company for? How does one get value unless they can sell to someone else, or receive a dividend?
If the ability to sell or purchase is blocked, is the company worth anything? (ie Petronas/Progress)
Does the blocking of Petronas/Progress put a positive pressure on dividend paying companies?

The refusal of Petronas/Progress seems huge to me.

Q: I'm interested in your opinion of this little company called Symbility Solutions (TSX Venture: SY). They seem to have a steady stream of business (from their recent press releases) and seem to suggest they have a good niche in providing Software-as-a-service (SAAS) solutions to the insurance marketplace. What do you think about it? How much of a moot do they have in warding off competition?
