Q: Hi 5i,
HBM like so many other stocks has had a correction to the downside. it appears overdone. can you look at HBM again as they have had an on site visit this past Sept 08 th.it seems like their expansion is happening right at a perfect time, especially with the Zinc.do you think management is competent enough to see these projects to the end, on time , on budget etc. etc. what don't you like about HBM.
with regards to the markets in general do you think we are still going through a normal business cycle ?
if yes then base metals have yet to have their day ? ? thanx Norm

Q: Peter,I bought some at $13,then more at $19 as many analysts were predicting $22......Is there any worry on this stock in particular over next 3 years and how would you rank it versus Calfrac,PXH and Savannah in the energy service groupings
I have energy positions in SGY, DEE, RE and TNP all of which have suffered a lot in the recent correction. Do you see a higher risk in holding any of these. Also, DEE is in natural gas why is not holding up with gas prices not dropping compared to oil prices?
Q: Peter: I have noticed HNZ.A has dropped quite a bit over the past few months, It is now down to about a dollar more than I paid for it. Do you see a bright future for this firm over the next year or two or would you sell
Thanks
Ken
Q: I hold approximately 900 shares of both CNQ and Suncor and have a profit on both. As you know both have been dropping significantly in the last several weeks. Given the low global oil prices would you recommend that I sell my positions or add on this weakness.
Q: Best Wishes to all. Indigo seems to be showing strength in a weak market. Would this be a good time to consider purchasing as we approach the holiday season?
Thank you
Q: What is your take on Aet.un since they announced they are looking at ways to increase shareholder value,including the possible sale of entire company.
Q: Hello
I recently read the following,
Warren Buffet flatly endorsed a simple portfolio of inexpensive index funds for his own survivors. My advice to the trustee couldn't be more simple: Put 10% of the cash in short-term government bonds and 90% in a very low-cost S&P 500 index fund. (I suggest Vanguard's.) I believe the trust's long-term results from this policy will be superior to those attained by most investors — whether pension funds, institutions or individuals — who employ high-fee managers.
If a Canadian was to follow this advice, and allocate some to a Canadian index fund, a U.S index fund and short term government bonds. What would your allocations be and what Canadian Index fund would you recommend? If you where to periodically rebalance the portfolio how often would you do that. Would you use this strategy in RRSPs, TFSAs and RESPs?
Also should the investor protect him/herself from U.S dollar currency risk?
Use the assumption that this is for long term investing.
Q: I am down 34% with AVO, but I still like the growth story. I would like to buy more to bring the holding back to a full position now that the price is under $18. Would you add to my holding at this point or would you wait until after tax loss selling?
Q: Since you have downgraded this stock by 2 notches would you now say that it is a sell rating? I currently owned this stock in my RRSP and wonder if I should sell and replace with another stock?
Thanks

i am looking for your views on unilever versus Bristol-meyers. both of these have corrected significantly and am looking to add to my US holdings. I need a steady stream of US income in the future so trying to build a nice, steady group of dividend payers that i can hold for a long period of time.
