Q: Do you expect Katanga's shares to fall much further based on recent news? Would you sell it and take a profit if you owned it? There's talk of a class action suit. How serious a development is this? Could it be a buying opportunity, assuming cobalt has a bright future? Thanks.

Q: I have a question about VET stock price and OIL price correlation:
Jan 01/17 VET: 57.14 OIL WTI: 56.85
Today: VET: 44.79 OIL: 57.73
Why the disconnect? Does this mean oil price is heading south or VET prospects are worst then at the start of the year? Is it future oil price reflected in the stock price?
If you had to make an educated guess where do you think the oil price is heading? I know it is not a realistic question but just for fun, what is your current thinking?

Q: Sgy stock price seems to trade at or near $2.00. A 20yr chart reveals this to be very close to the bottom, plus it seems Sgy could maintain this range over a longer period of time as their chart would suggest. Would this be a good name to buy and hold for the dividend income for a long period, say up to 10 yrs?
