Q: Hi, I have held ESN for a couple of years. Decent dividend but it doesn't stray too far above/below $2.15. I would like to continue to hold it and wonder what you think about it on a 1 to 2 year time frame. Thanks.

Q: Hi team; An advisor (before I knew about 5I) called very enthusiastically telling me about the IPO
for Eagle Energy Trust. Naively, I believed him and he even agreed to my suggestion of putting it into the TSFA. I paid $11. It now ranges between $6.30 and $7.00. It is paying the very high dividend. Recently I found Peter's article about IPO's. I will never buy another IPO. Do these advisors know what they are selling, or are they assessing the investor's lack of understanding just to make money for themselves or to sell what their company (Scotia McLeod in this case) is promoting?
Thanks so much for all the answers you provide.

Q: Peter,

I bought ANV recently at a price of 11.6. In the collapsing gold sector, is it too much risk considering management came out with the production numbers and they are reporting on May 6.

Q: Hi 5i: I'm retired and a buy and hold investor. Most of my portfolio is fine with the exception of Baytex. I bought 540 shares of BTE two years ago and since then it has declined 25%. The options I'm considering are:
1. Continue to hold BTE.
2. Sell BTE and put half the proceeds into Keyera (although it has run up a lot recently) and half into a non-energy, non-financial stock.
3. Sell BTE and put all the proceeds into non-energy, non-financial stocks.
(At present my energy stocks are PPL,IPL.UN,CPG,KEY,PKI and BTE. They make up 40% of my portfolio while financials make up 15%.
I'd appreciate your view on the above options and any suggestions re: non-energy, non-financial stocks.

Thanks for the service you provide to investors like me.

Q: TD Securites today issued a buy rating on Renegade (RPL) with a target price of $2.50. Insiders are not selling stock and INK Research show net buying of $169,250. I hold stock and think on a risk - reward basis the stock is worthwhile holding. Do you have an opinion? Thanks, Bill

Q: Hi Peter & 5i: Armtec (ARF) still seemed to have a long way to go through the woods when you were answering questions about it last July. Has it made any progress since then, including particularly with its debt? Has its risk of bankruptcy changed appreciably? Thanks.

Q: Hi,
Now that MBAC (MBC) has completed it's bought deal financing at $2.20, do you think this as a good time to buy more (I.e. average down)? Seasonally August is better for Ag stocks, but does the financing change the timing for MBC? Thanks

Q: Hi Team,
I currently own 26 stocks, including 5 golds. I'm ok with volatility. I'd like to consolidate the golds to 3. How would you rank Argonaut (AR), B2Gold (BTO), Detour DGC), Eldorado (ELD) and Sandstorm (SSL)? Of course all are down from where I bought them, and they are all in registered accounts so I can't claim any capital losses. Thanks a lot.

Q: RPL's announcement yesterday, which included a planned 'strategic review', was no doubt meant to alleviate investor concerns. But the stock has sunk further today. I'm down 32% since the news release 3 weeks ago started the rout. Would you advise holding on for now or selling?

Thanks
Tom
