Q: Hi Peter
I have held STB since 2009. I reduced my position last summer as a result of a sudden sell-off in which my gains appeared to be rapidly disappearing. But I still hold a substantial amount. Now apparently there have been negative reports put out by short sellers leading to a rapid sell-off. Do you have any insight into the current situation? The company claims they are in a blackout period prior to release of year-end results so they can't make a detailed rebuttal.
Thanks
Ross

Q: What are your thoughts on why there are so many "board lot" trades taking place. It just doesn't seem to make sense trading 100 shares of a penny stock. Could this be some kind of an attempt to manipulate the market? This seems to be most prevalent in the junior gold stocks. Thanks

How would you allocate funds, by percentage, between Canada, US, Europe/Asia, Emerging. "Average" return,less small management fees,over time,looks good enough for me. Past experience picking stocks, either with or without paid advice, has so far yielded well below "average" returns.

Q: Hi Peter,
Recently heard in the news that PDN is a possible takeover target. What is your opinion on the company? Considering it is already a 1 billion market cap, do you think someone will come and buy at significant premium.

Q: Peter, your thoughts please on Precious Metals and Mining Trust MMP.UN, a portfolio managed by Sentry Select and consisting primarily of junior and intermediate gold, silver, metals and mineral companies. I have held this position in an RRSP for several years and have drawn a good income stream from it, but the stock price has been pounded for the past several months. I cannot find any analyst recommendation on it. Yield is now over 18% and pays monthly. Is the dividend safe? Should I continue to hold it or bite the bullet and move on? Thanks.
