Investment Q&A

Q: Have you ever looked at Canadian Lithium CLQ-T. Commissioning of plant expected before year end with Lithium production expected first quarter 2013 and a very strong lithium market.
Your thoughts on this Canadian play. Luv your site.

Q: Hi Peter and team, I would like your opinion on EXC, exelon corp on the NYSE. I see it is down a lot in the last year, would it be a buy at this level ? And would the dividend be sustainable in a scenario of low electricity prices during 2 or 3 more years ? Thank you !!

Q: Hi Peter, Can you re-visit Labrador Iron Mines please (LIM)?
I see you made a comment on May 25. It looks interesting here at $1.20, they are a producer, don't seem to have any debt although hit hard from a rapid decline in iron ore prices. Cash balances are getting low around $10 mill ( I have been told although most recent financials show $22 mill although that was end of June). They have postponed planned capex and have recently scaled back planned production for the balance of 2012 to conserve cash. I guess this is a play on iron ore prices?? If iron ore recovers over the next few months this would have proved a great entry point, if iron ore prices remain soft for a few quarters this company may be in trouble. Any thoughts/opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter
Was wondering if your thoughts on ARE have changed since May? Keep up the good work.

Q: Hi Peter,
I just became a member of 5i today. Earlier this morning I found a chart of many companies that contained "current" and suggested "buy" prices. I can't seem to find it again. How do I find the information on your site?

Q: hi, new member, great site, great info. What are your views on Pollard Banknote (PBL). They seem to be on a roll contract wise. Good dividend. Tightly held by founding family. Thx for your thoughts

Q: Hi Peter, I've had 500 shares of Gran Tierra "GTE" since 2009 and my break even is about $5.00 it's gone as high as 6.50 in the past year and seems to be falling back down I was thinking of selling and buying some "CPG" with the same cash it would mean less shares, what's your view on that? Thanks, Nick

Q: Peter,

I recently bought GQC but today it has been hammered pretty bad. Do you think I should add more, sell and take a loss or do nothing. Thanks

Q: Would appreciate comments on the new acquisition by Amaya announced this morning. Many thanks.

Q: Hi,
New member and look forward to working with you. What are your thoughts on DNI-X. I see they are issuing lots of shares lately. Is this not diluting the shares. Thx

Q: ECI is looking cheaper lately. What are your latest thoughts? Buy or hold?

Q: Hi Peter, what is your view on Lorex Technology (Lox.v)? Emerging growth story. 15 consecutive quarters of profitability and recent product launches and geographic expansion that would indicate growth is going to continue at a high rate. Mgmt has consistently outdone their guidance and owns over 20% of shares. Funded growth through internally generated cash and eliminated debt and now has net cash position. Seems dirt cheap relative to Avigilon. thanks.

Q: Relatively new to investing and using direct investing account so asking you: if a US company is a subsidiary of a Canadian company that is a potential take over target, am I to assume that the US stock price will benefit relative to the Canadian company’s stock price? Or should I stick to purchase of the Canadian company?

Q: Hey Peter. Nice job on BNN today.

I'm thinking about taking a position in WEQ.UN. Is there anything I should be concerned about, like debt levels, or specifically look out for in the coming quarterly reports. Thanks again.

Q: loy on the venture exchange buy sell hold

Q: Do you have a view on Com Dev CDV T ovr the next year ?

Q: CFX: Canfor Pulp Products. Even with a dividend cut recently would this company still be a good growth , share price, opportunity. Its PE 8.3X is way less than average of 23X EPS $1.03 is 2.5X better than Industry.PB is only 1.5X, Debt to capital is only 21% & ROE is double industry norm. I don't understand why this stock shouldn't be double or more ??
Thanks Ed G

Q: I have been watching DOLLARAMA (DOL.TO)closely over the last few months and would appreciate your thoughts on this company.
Thanking you in advance

Q: I have a question about Brookfield Renewable
I use the TMXMoney site to check fundamentals of companies. This site shows that the EPS of BEP.UN is -1.83 yet it pays out a dividend of 1.38. I like the yield that BEP.UN offers but am concerned that it can't possibly be sustainable if the company is actually losing money. Am I missing something here? I am looking to invest in companies with decent yield. I don't need any capital appreciation but I don't wish to incur big capital losses either.

Q: How do you rate Badger daylight?
