Q: Hi Peter and Team, apologies in advance to all but I need ask the following question; watched a fellow on BNN, Charles Nenner, a professor who has a mathematical system which has apparently been correct so far, so he says, that calculates the DJIA to fall to 5000...absolutely crazy, isn't it?? Have you heard of this fellow? He states that those who bought in 2009 are the ones selling into this ralley and going cash! He is all cash currently, so he says. Please see him on BNN today, and your thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated. I am currently fully invested with minimal cash on sideline. Thanks as usual!

Q: ESL just reported first quarter results. This line was included:
Operating expenses increased to $23.0 from $14.9 million in the prior year's first quarter and include incremental operating costs related to acquisitions as well as special charges related to restructuring of acquired operations. Non-cash amortization charges in the quarter were $3.6 million and include amortization charges for acquired software and customer relationships from acquired operations.
Buffett refers to these in his recent letter saying some are not real and it makes sense for the investor to adjust for them. Do you agree? Is this what the company is doing when they show adjusted EBITDA?

Q: Not a question but a comment. As a new/beginning investor (meaning new to investing myself because I got disappointed, far too late, with mutual funds & ETFs my "advisor" was putting me into), I'm paying attention to the message I'm hearing from 5i -- don't invest in "the stock market", invest in well-managed companies.
In the past few days, three of my new investments have reported results, not great but not really bad either. All three had immediate substantial drops in share prices, certainly much greater than what I would have expected given the results.
Which leads me to conclude that there are still too many people out their investing in "the stock market" and not in good companies! And skewing the market for "real" investors in the process.
The shares of all three (Capital Power, Parkland Fuel, Wajax) are, after the initial drop, slowly (sometimes very slowly <g>) coming back up . . . and in the meantime, are still paying the dividends that were a large part of my investing in them in the first place.

Q: I'm interested in Newmont (NEM) mining. Management has promised that their dividend is linked to the gold price. That sounds attrative if the biase is positive over the medium term. I feel like this is a good stock to have exposure to the gold sector, while be given a dividend to wait until the next upleg on the gold price. How does Newmont stack up with the other gold companies in your opinion?
