Q: Ernie's May 22 question on TDB621 Mortgage Fund had me investigate the numbers: 12 month return with risk 1.36/current yield 2.1/MER 1.82. A well kept secret at TD is their ISA-Investment Savings Account- TDB8150 currently paying 1.25% with no risk. There is no info online about it, you have to call and ask, but you can buy and sell it online min $1000, the only catch is it takes 1 to 2 days notice to buy and sell but it is guaranteed. I use it in cash and registered accounts. The US$ TDB 8152 pays 0.2%.

Q: Hi Peter
Argonaut Gold (AR) has had a recent move. Would you sell into the strength or wait for further recovery. I'm underwater somewhat but could wait if the longer term prospects look compelling.
Thanks

Q: Peter,
ANV was a gold stock you liked in the past. When compared to DGC they have lower costs per ounce of gold. They also issued shares at 10.75 which is much higher than what DGC is getting for their shares. Which would you prefer from both and why? Thanks

Q: Hi 5i
Would like your opinion of platinum and palladium, seems to be a supply shortage coming with problems in South Africa and the growing demand for catalytic converters and jewelry demand. How would you play this (miners or ETF's) the ETF's seem to be responding but the miners are doing nothing, which miners do you like and does Prophecy (NKL) going to be able to continue through to production or run out of cash? Thanks

Q: Hi Peter, I want to let you know how much I enjoy your service and website.
First, you gave me great advice on how to get out of my mutuals (which were steadily losing in spite of being an income fund), and your site has lots of info on building a portfolio.
I have had my portfolio for about 8 months and it is fluctuating between 9-13% increase, in spite of my Wi-lan and gold stocks - so I am very pleased.
