Investment Q&A

Q: Hi , Ceres Global AG corp will have their Northgate Hub operational this summer does it change your previous views on them?

Q: Hearing a lot of talk lately about Prairie Sky royalty. Would you have any idea when this IPO is going to be issued? Many thanks, Helen

Q: Natural Gas producers like Peyto and Painted Pony have had a really good run of late. Do you feel there is still a fair bit of upside?

What are the leading factors that drive natural gas exploration and producing stocks? Is it more than just the unit price of the product? Do you feel location of the primary production plays a part? i.e. Sask. vs. NW BC etc.

Thanks for such a great service!

Q: Hello Team,

Domestic O & G is doing very well right now. In my research and DD I came across Raise Production Inc (RPC.V). They claim to have a proprietary method that increases the flow rate of horizontal wells. Their recent experimental well would say they are onto something - resulting in a spike in share price. What do you think?

Q: Morguard Corp (MRC) - has been on a tear this last week but the only news I can find is the luxury rental in TO. I have held this for a long time and have done well but wanted your insight as to what may be happening with this stock.

Thanks as always for your insights.

Cheers

Q: You stated in an earlier post that very rarely does a stock that dips under .10c ever make a comeback. I would like your opinion of CEZ -- Calmena ( which apparently was started by some heavyweights from PD and has been in the tank almost since the ipo) and TME-- Temex ( which is supposedly well situated in the Quebec mining camp) Thanx Robbie

Q: Hi Team : have you any insight on MR.un. They are quite small and have just announced a financing . thanks

Q: Any furth comments on Lucara Diamond LUC. Las comment was in February. Is it still a buy at 1.90?

Q: I have been looking at consumer staple stocks that trade in the US. Could you give me any opinion on Energizer Holdings?

Q: Peter VALE SA on New York. Thoughts on the miner - is trading below 200 day and near 52 week low. Pays a nice dividend and I am a patient value investor - with fewer names to choose from these days.

Q: I bought some Glentel at 12.80 and have watched it slowly go down these last few weeks. Would you continue to hold this? I am considering selling and buying some K-Bro. Should I at least wait for a bounce with Glentel?

Q: I have purchased a decent position in Tricon (TCN) at around $7.70. I like the long term prospect for this company but it has trended lower lately although it's rise from $4 has been significant. You mentioned updating the report on this company in the future. What do you see in a three year time horizon?
Thank you.
Steven

Q: I am unable in finding a website that provides earnings calendar for TSE stocks, can you help? Thank you for your response.

Q: Symbol: FLY (venture)

Hi,

Ignoring the notion that one-year is not long term for you guys, do you think exactly one year from now, FLY, currently at 0.48$ can return to it's just one-month ago price of around 0.75$ (down almost 40% in three weeks)?

Thanks,

Q: Hi Peter and Staff. I visit your site daily and ask questions rarely because so much is covered in other members questions and in your answers and reports. This is a general question re cash flow. How is it calculated? For example if a small oil company in Alberta was doing 20 000 BOE daily and oil was priced at $90 and they had a net back of $40 with 200 million shares out, how would their cashflow be calculated. (I assume netback means what they clear after costs). Thank you for your valuable service. Joe

Q: 3D Systems DDD

In doing some research I have come to realize 3D Systems has real products they are selling to real customers. And they have just announced acquiring Robtec, the "largest additive manufacturing service bureau and 3D/Printer Scanner distributor in Latin America."

I am sure we all agree 3D printing will one day be a reality for everyone as the cost comes down while sales go up - i.e. PC's, VCR/PVR's, Cell Ph's etc...

The argument has been no one is certain who will surface in the end as a real player in the sector and who will fall by the wayside and become a no body.

As of today, DDD is down 49% on the year but over the past 2 days has seen a 4% rebound. Do you think DDD is at the bottom? Would you suggest a buy or not quite yet?

Thanks for all the help

Q: I need some advice. I maximize a company managed RRSP program because the co matches my contributions however the manager (Mutual Life in this case) only offers expensive mutual funds. I also invest in RESP's however I've been told the RESP won't allow equities, ETF, etc so I am stuck with expensive mutual funds again. Do I just leave the company plan and take my cash tot he open market? Do I quit the RESP think and do the same? What advice do you have??

Q: do you have preference for AFN-vs-CVL for income/growth and why? thanks

Q: I bought 10,000 shares on Interpipeline (IPL) at $8.40 in 2009 and now have almost 14,000 shares from their DRIP. My initial investment is now getting over 15% return due to distribution increases but I am paying a high price for DRIP purchases lately. My original plan was to hold this for another five years. However, the price has appreciated lately. Time to move on?
Thank you.
Steven

Q: I realize you do not cover US stocks, but just wanted your opinion on whether it might be a good time to buy GM, now that they have been beaten down? Or should I wait a little longer?
