Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Sandstorm Gold just listed on the NYSE this week and announced a $75 million bought deal today. ($75 + 15% overallotment) on top of this a $50M LOC and ~$40M cash on hand. Provides a kitty of ~$175M.I have a larger position in this company and would really like to know if this changes your perspective on the company.I know you were concerned in the past that they were not cashed up to capitalize on the current opportunities.
Your thoughts once again, appreciated.
Cheers
S.

Q: Over the past few years, I have on several occasions taken advantage when our loonie was solidly above parity with the US$ to purchase US$ (cash) with an eye towards getting some diversification outside of Canada. The trouble is I have yet to make any foreign purchases and US$ cash now represents about 15% of my holdings. I have been patiently waiting for a meaningful pullback in the US markets which hasn't arrived. I realize that 5i's focus is primarily Canadian, but could you provide any general recommendations (either individual names or ETFs) that you feel would be suitable for new buying at present to provide some broad diversification in the US or abroad (priced in US$). Thanks.

Q: Hey guys. I've held kmp for a few years. Was thinking of possibly selling a portion or all my killam and replacing that dividend stream with morguard north american reit and building my cash position with whatever money is left over.

Option number 2 would be to keep all my killam and buy mrg.un with some of my existing cash position.

Any thoughts? Thanks.

Q: ZED, Zedi Solutions, is a small, unnoticed company that seems to execute well quarter after quarter yet goes nowhere. I suspect that a lot of the stock is owned by insiders especially after the CEO stated that they are 'rewarding shareholders'. He must mean the 0.20 something rise since the Dec lows. I would appreciate your opinion on this company and if you think $0.75 would be an entry point. Thank you.

Q: Hi Peter,
I was fortunate enough earlier this year to buy Africa Oil (AOI)for $1.50/share. It currently sits at $9 as a result of hitting oil in their first well drilled in Kenya. They have a massive land position in East Africa and looks like they may have several billion barrels of oil. Very strong management team and a Lundin Group of Companies. We are awaiting a third party reserve evaluation any day now and they will also be spudding well # 2 soon in Kenya. Any thoughts/opinions would be greatly apprecaited.
Thanks.
