Q: I’d like to know what you think of small cap CDB.V (Cordoba Minerals). Their main project (Alacran) is in Columbia. Recently they partnered up with Chinese mine construction co. JCHX, who purchased 50% of the Alacran project for $US100,000,000. This certainly makes the current market cap of CAD$45M look cheap. Years ago this was a favoured stock of Brent Cook and Joe Mazumdar, but they lost interest when Robert Friedland took control of the company (via IE), citing that further development had lost its urgency and near term returns unlikely. They were quite correct, as it’s 5 years later and little has happened except share price collapse helped by RF diluting retail shareholders to oblivion. Things do finally seem to be looking positive with the JCHX involvement, so I’d like your opinion, how the future might play out for this stock considering IE’s significant control position and the small retail float, – e.g. Given RF’s prior behaviour in similar circumstances do you think he’s likely to either promote this and liquidate part of his investment in future, or continue to grind the retail float to dust? (PS, they have another greenfield asset in Nevada with Bell Copper (BCU), but it’s not clear if this option has any value)

Q: Hope everyone had a great long weekend!
I've a question well outside of your regular commentary on Canadian and US markets. Fevertree Drinks PLC had a great run from listing until 2018, and then again after sinking when Covid hit until January 2022. The stock has since hit what appears to be another floor and has bounced along it since.
I am curious what your thoughts are, if any, on their performance, what management issues has led to their share price challenge and what they are doing about it, and lastly the stocks potential for value appreciation over the next 3-5 years.
Thanks very much

Q: Sorry about this tax loss question but I find it a little confusing regarding the minimum 30 day waiting period.
If I sold all my BCE shares on April 16 for a loss.
What is the "earliest" exact date I can start buying BCE back and still claim
the loss in my taxable account?

Q: Given the current direction of the Canadian economy, my goal is to focus the majority of my investments in the US. According to Portfolio Analytics, currently 53% of my portfolio is US, 46% Canadian (the remainder being international). I believe my US holdings are significantly under-rated given the Canadian stocks I hold. I would appreciate ballpark figures regarding the US/international component of the following TSX listed stocks: WSP, TFII, BIPC, BEPC, BAM, BN, and HPS.A. This will enable me to get a better handle on what my actual US/international holdings are. Thank you.
