Q: I have 5% of my portfolio in gold or precious metals stocks as follows: CGL, FNV, SLW and G. Do you believe this is a good method of getting exposure to gold? Do you think the 4 investments that I have purchased should be changed to get my 5% exposure?

Thank you. I will await your response.

Q: Just a comment, really. A very big thank you for the exceptionally lucid commentary on Constellation, Enghouse and Open Text. Your notes gave me much-needed information and I now feel confident of the stocks I am purchasing. I realize the limitations now, of being able to describe these companies, but also know the difference now, "between a hawk and a handsaw." Thanks very much also to Jerry for the link to the excellent article on Kinaxis!

Q: Just further to Eric's question, from the bought deal prospectus:
"At the option of holders and provided that payment of the final instalment has been made, each Debenture will be convertible into common shares of APUC ("Common Shares") at any time on or after the Final Instalment Date, but prior to the earlier of maturity or redemption by the Company, at a conversion price of C$10.60 per Common Share. " As the stock is currently trading below the conversion price, hopefully the "overhang" is mostly priced in already, as 5i suggested in its answer. Recall that the stock was trading at about $11.50 prior to the announcement of the deal.
