Q: I have roughly equal positions in the above and am thinking of selling GSG, which is doing ok but no dividend, and increasing my positions in NTR and LUN. Your thoughts, please? Any downside to this? Is the upside of the dividend worth it? Thanks

Q: Your opinion on using FSB ETF to park cash. Looks to have better returns than any high interest savings or GIC with minimal risk.

Any better ideas for returns from cash are appreciated.

Q: In the last few months, gold has not been doing poorly, falling back from its recent highs. I would appreciate your thoughts as to why it is not doing well, and whether you think this is just a period of consolidation, before a large upturn. I would have thought that in today's market (with forecast inflation, market and political turbulence, large government deficits) it would have supported a large increase in gold price. However, this is clearly not happening at the current time.

Your thoughts on this market dynamic would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks again for this wonderful service, and your valued advice.

Q: Hi 5i.
Coal Island Ltd., a (former)shareholder in Hudson Resources Ltd. recently disclosed pursuant to the requirement for an "Early Warning Report" that it has 'disposed' of 18,466,827 common shares in HUD for 'gross aggregate proceeds of $2,874,526.00' through the facilities of the TSX Venture Exchange.
Does this mean that HUD bought back these shares, thus having the same effect as any normal share buy back, resulting in there being less money in the company but fewer shares outstanding and thus more value for each issued share, and would that be where the money for the transaction came from? Or would there be third party hidden in here somewhere?
Coal Island says it paid $0.15562 per share, and although the market price of this volatile stock has decreased some since the Coal Island disposition, the share price is still over .20 per share.
Thanks for helping me understand what went on here.

Q: The markets have been very nasty to some favorites in the past week or so. Can you recommend one or two companies or funds that you think have really been hit unrealistically hard? Your opinion would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Q: I see ABCL is taking it on the chin today down 12% as I type this question. Since about January 1, 2021 I have been considering selling my NVTA and putting the money in ABCL but have done nothing to date. (Procrastination is sometimes the key to success)! NVTA weighting is 1.5%. 2 Questions...
Do you think ABCL has better long term prospects than NVTA and would you be interested in ABCL at +/- $31.50 USD? Or do you think I should use the basket approach and hold both?
Thanks,
Jim

Q: What's the reason behind the current slip of BEP.UN/BEPC and BIP.UN/BIPC? These two combos should be steady industrial stocks and not subject to the stumble currently affecting the tech stocks? I know both had been up nicely over the past year but that's no reason to reverse so sharply of late. Any insight you can share? Thanks.
