Q: Hello Peter:

Several, perhaps many, months ago I believe I saw an article in the Globe ROB in which you spoke (positively) about Primary Corp (PYC) issuing it's first ever dividend. What are your thoughts about this company today?

Thanks,

Don

Q: Peter,

MT is going to make a decision within the next 30 days or so about any future steps. Do you think they would have any concrete offers to work with? Just that the companies that have decided not to pursue strategic alternatives have recently been punished badly? I hope that is not the case with MT. Also if there is an offer what would be a reasonable range as analysts have recently downgraded the stock to just 12 dollars.

Q: In the beginning of January, 2010, on the advice of my broker I bought CJT @ $10 a share.....I have held it through thick and thin (mostly thin) ever since.....the stock does pay a good dividend and has raised it recently but still not enough to regain original investment....my question is: at a share price of aroung $6.60, should I double up on it and hope for an $8 price when the economy picks up, or just hold what I have until same? Thanks Peter.

Q: David Burroughs often talks about using point and figure charts to set his stop loss points. For those not so technically savvy, do you have any opinion of sites such as Smart Stops, or the use of stops at all for that matter. Thanks Jeff

Q: Hi Peter, Quetzal Energy I've had since .10 cents last year can it get back there so I can sell it and get back my investment, would you average down to get the average cost lower to sell or would you sell and move on. By any great miracle is there any hope?

Is this your problem or mine?

Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter. Hope you are having a good day. I like Horizon North Logistics (HNL.TO) for the cash flow growth and dividend. Are there any negatives that I should be aware of because it has pulled back 20% in price recently? I thought the recent results were fine but what do you think? I really value your opinion.

Thanks,
Anthony

Q: The decision to buy a stock is made easier with your simple A,B,C,D scoring system and I really appreciate that. My questions is: Will 5i report, or make note of, when a good time to sell comes up for a previously high-scored company? If so what would be your indication - a downgrade to the previous score or should I be looking for something else?

thanks!

Q: What is your opinion of the current market situation. Are companies like Silver Wheaten and Barrick bargains at this point or do you think that they will continue to drop?

Q: Golden Minerals (AUM) dropped 18% today with no apparent news. The commodity markets are passing through a tough period but don't you think a drop of 18% is too much. Do these kind of drops have some big insiders unloading before the news becomes public? Is there something inherently wrong with the company as I do not see a catalyst except weak earnings which were already discounted into the price?

Q: Any Thoughts on Sandstorm Metals and Energy (SND)? i believe they should do well long term due to the management's past experiences. the company has had one or two hicups with regard to Royal Coal's bankruptcy, however, they are debt free and sitting on close to 40Million in cash and also they are currently trading below guaranteed cash flow, however, their is the risk of their other companies not meeting their targets. overall, i see more upside at current prices especially if ones time horizon is 5 years or more. how would you grade SND, and if you could kill two birds with one stone, then take a look at SSL also, the big sister.
