Investment Q&A

Q: I would be considered a novice greenhorn investor. I did completet the CSC a number of years ago but have performed very little investing in the stock market. Being self employed for most of my life any available capital was invested in the business. I am preparing for when I will have available capital to invest and would like to know any books or web locations you might suggest that impressed you.

I thank you for your research and reports that are supplied with no conflict of interest, it is a clean reputable way of doing business. Some other former stock brokers etc. are supplying advice for a fee that appears to be clean of kick backs, trailer fees etc. would you comment on this new area of consulting advice for a fee.

Q: Hi Peter. I was wondering what you think of Legacy Oil & Gas (LEG.TO). Lots of short sellers in this one. I know you used to run funds with the ability to go long and short. Putting on your "short seller's cap", what would be the argument for someone to short this stock because from my perspective it looks cheap with good growth and a CEO with past success in making investors money.

Thanks,
Anthony

Q: Hi Peter,

Q: I have a question about phx energy services(PHX).I would like to know why it trades at such a low price ,the foward pe is 8.61 and the yield 7.5 percent, when it had a record fourth quarter raising the dividend 50 percent ,the first quarter was also very good.

Q: Good Day:

Interested in your view of Crescent Point Energy. Overall flat for a couple years, but with a decent yield. They seem to be relatively conservative (for oil and gas) ....with a decent balance sheet. Thoughts?

Q: Is Uranium One [UUU]the best way to play uranium or is Cameco [CCO]better?

Q: Hi Peter,

Consulting firm I-Runway did a report on Smartphone patent wars analysis on "4G-LTE technology", but they did not have Wi-Lan on their report or did not make the list. However, Wi-Lan claimed that they have over 500 patents on 4G/LTE. Can you please provide your comments. Report is on i-Runway website.
Regards,
Mohammed.

Q: Hi Peter,
I have been purchasing share of Wi-Lan for the last 10 years and I have alaways hoping for a take over offer. Do you think it's time for such a take over offer now? Since, the share price is below $5.

Q: Perhaps this co. is too junior to comment on, but fwiw, any thoughts on Platinum Group Metals, PTM? They've started building a mine, 250 million financing has apparently gone to the banking syndicate committee.

Q: I am interested in building a position in uranium with a 4 - 5+ year outlook. With a medium risk tolerance, would you recommend a large cap stock such as Cameco or is there a smaller cap stock with a better balance sheet I should consider?
