Q: This is further to your response to Alan about the ALA receipts (ALA.R). You indicated that you expect the deal to close by Q4 2018. It was my understanding that if the deal did not close by the end of June, the receipts would be bought out at about $31. While I have no problem holding ALA, I bought the receipts at a much lower price kind of hoping for the deal to fail. Am I wrong about the June date, or was there some company announcement I missed? Can they actually change the June date if the deal is not off, just delayed?

Thank-you

Q: You last reviewed these two uranium companies in 2017. MGA owns a reasonable portion of NXE. Both currently ticking upwards a little Can you please update and suggest where these may be going in next year or even several years? I have made some money on these as small investments, so I am OK to continue holding and can live with volatility. Thank you.

Q: I hold MAXR and show somewhat large losses on the holding. I bought before it changed its name from McDonald D.W. I now do not recall why I even bought it. Was it on one of the model portfolios in 2017? Until 2016-17 I had only US stocks. A US premium letter I subscribe to (New Constructs, who often use robo analytics) just listed MAXR as a stock that one may short--I don't short stocks. New Constructs put MAXR in their “Dangerous Model portfolio” in which they name stocks worth shorting. What do you advise? MAXR is however finally beginning to show some positive movement. Is that slow price climb up sustainable ? What are MAXR’s prospects and is it worth keeping? If you advise sell, what would you replace it with?

Q: Having sold both of these in the past couple of weeks, I was going to repurchase them in 30 days, but don't think I will. They both seem to be income type of stocks and I would prefer some growth. Can you recommend any stocks with better growth in these sectors or perhaps I just keep away from certain sectors as your balanced portfolio does.
