Q: Peter, would you please give me your updated thoughts on Parrallel. The price of 4.12 is rediculous for the yield it is paying. Is the payout ratio really out of line? Looks to me like if they cut the div. by 25% it is still a great buy.Where would the .08 cent div. have to go to to be sustainable? Thanks Ken

Q: I am invested heavily in CNQ and COS, and might do some diversification progressively. As COS is a one-poney company and CNQ is about 70% in oil and 30% in gas. Would it make sense to sell COS first (notwithstanding its more substantial dividend and its just published rather decent quarterly report), as gas seems on the verge of making a come-back and CNQ has a pretty good track record for the past 20 years ?

Q: Hi, Peter.
I am amazed at the great service you provide to investors for such a low subscription fee. Much appreciated!!
I have owned, sold and repurchased Athabaska Minerals (ABM) several times. I currently have a substantial position and the stock is going parabolic. Is it time to hit the sell button and run?
Thanks.

Q: I was skimming through the news on GDI (General Donlee) on Stockwatch and noted a big sale by their head guy, via another company he controls. How much notice do you take of this kind of insider trade? By the way, could you recommend one or two sites for keeping an eye on daily company news. Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter
Just read your blog on etf's. Tried to "post a comment" to the article but the site wouldn't let me, so, sorry, thought I would post my comment here. While I agree with much of what you say, I was a bit suprised by your negative inclusion of HAC as being an example of etfs having gone too far. This is an etf which has consistently beat the tsx over its three year history (it is up 20-25% over that time). Though not being one, I was also somewhat taken aback by your apparent slur on farmers. While it may be that the theory of seasonal investing is not in keeping with your beliefs, I would respectfully suggest that you consider the returns of the etf, the reputation of technical analysts such as Don Vialoux and Brooke Thackery and the distasteful suggestion that only a "farmer" would invest in such a fund.
I'm very sorry Peter to be posting such a negative comment, I have enjoyed your analysis and commentary for years and I continue to do so.

Q: Re: LOY. In follow-up to Bruce's question from Oct.25, I noticed that today over 7 million shares were traded (average around 150K)- though it closed even for the day. You indicated you have been watching the stock. It would appear someone made a large commitment. Any thoughts on todays activity and what it may mean for the future of the stock? Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter & Co...I have been holding Aurizon Mines (AUZ)for a couple of years and am down 40%. If you are expecting the gold sector to be strong going forward is this stock worth holding for a recovery or should I look for another stock in the gold space. Also, I want to say thank you very much for your excellent advice. My stock portfolio, with 5i, that I started 9 months ago is up 16%, not including dividends...stellar!!

Q: Hi Peter and team,

My question is about warrants. If you buy warrants they are definitely more risky than the underlying stock. Is there a possibility that management can call these before expiry date? In such cases if the market price is say 50 cents, can they call it at a lower price? In particular if you buy warrants on a commodity company, what should you be careful about. I recently bought some warrants for EDV and I am thinking is it a safe bet. Thanks

Q: Hi Peter,

Any thoughts on Conifex Timber (CFF.VN)on the Venture Exchange? I like the board, management experience and the timing in a cyclical industry.

Thanks,

Q: Hi Peter and team. I would like you your take on ZAR. I was quite impressed with their presentation at the Sept 12 Peters event. They seem to have some good capability in enhanced oil recovery.
