Investment Q&A

Q: Greetings All:
I bought 3K shares of U back when it was $8.00, and before the Big Meltdown. With the current popularity of SMR'S and green energy do you think that it is still too early for the Big U to make a comeback. Cigar Lake is shut down again. Your opinion. Would I be adding to a dead horse?
Thanks,
Ben.

Q: Do you have an opinion on this company?

Q: While my question involves SBB, it is really more of a general interest question. On Friday Dec. 18, SBB traded over 22 million shares and 20 million of those shares were traded in the last 15 minutes of trading. The 50-day average volume is 764K.

So I went looking for an answer to this anomalous trading and found the following on Sabina's website:

"Sabina is pleased to announce that effective at market close on December 18, 2020, the Company will be added to the GDXJ.

Qualifying for addition to the GDXJ is another benchmark of how Sabina’s successes have translated into share performance and liquidity. Inclusion on this index provides an increased level of validation of the Company to a broader base of institutional investors, bringing additional trading flexibility and value to our Company.

The index initial position in Sabina is estimated at approximately 17M shares."

Clearly, Friday's sky-high volume and SBB's inclusion in GDXJ are related. However, SBB's announcement states it only becomes part of GDXJ AFTER the market closed on Friday. Can you help me to understand how so much trading occurred BEFORE market closing on Friday? Who is coughing up 20 million shares in the last 15 minutes of trading when the entire float is only 326 million shares? Does Van Eck purchase the shares outright or is a middleman involved?

Thank you.

Q: If I purchased any of these, are they subject to capital gains tax? If I wanted to redeem the physical silver in exchange for the shares, what would the charges be over the spot price? Does the share price follow the spot price dollar for dollar? Wouldn't mind having answers for any questions I haven't thought of.

Q: I know you don't like target prices but I would still like to ask for a rough shot at one for KRR please. Thanks as always for this great service,

Q: Are there any metals/minerals stocks that you like which have some growth and a dividend?. I have no positions in this area and would like to diversify a bit, without sacrificing safety. And I think this area should benefit from the recovery after covid - do you agree? Can you give me 2 or 3?

Q: Equinox Gold announced it is purchasing Premier Gold. From Equinox's perspective do you view this deal in a positive light and why? In general, how do you view Equinox moving forward? Ross Beaty has proved serially successful in the past.

Q: What are your thoughts on FCC with the $10M investment from the government and the recent run up in stock price?
