Q: You seem to like BTO as a gold pick, yet I notice that as of the end of April, BTO has one of the largest short positions on the TSX. Why do you think this is the case?

Q: Currently I have invested in the 3 model portfolios of yours & the Money Saver model Portfolio. Thanks, they are doing well from a risk reward view point. I would like to have exposure to a Large Cap international resource stock. Would this be an opportune time in the cycle to get into the sector? If so, would you prefer Rio Tinto over BHP?

Q: Precious metals represents 3.5% of my portfolio, and looking to take this to 4.5-5% in anticipation of eventual inflation. I currently have G, AEM and SLW at 1, 1.5 and 1% respectively. After the last quarter, my preference would be to add to AEM as the best performer, but I already hold more of it. Should I increase AEM anyway, or bump up G to keep levels even?

Related, should I increase my SLW, open a position in SSO, or switch SLW to SSO? This is a favorite of Jamie Carrasco on BNN. Which gives better leverage to the price of silver without risking fallout from interest rates due to debt?

Your thoughts are much appreciated.

Q: I have held LIF for a while, and with yesterday's jump, am back to about even on it. Do you have any idea why the stock price increase? This was bought for income and was a move to diversify from some of my financials/pipes. Would you continue to hold, or take advantage of the current price and move on?

Thank you

Q: Hello 5iresearch,

Wondering if you could comment on the recent events unfolding at Rubicon. It has received 50 million from the CPPIB, and has posted its advancements on Vimeo and its website. Do you think it is fairly valued here? Will it get a different type of evaluation when it actually starts production in Q2 2015 if it goes as per plan? Also, what companies would you compare RMX to once in production? Possible take out candidate? Lots of questions. Thanks for taking the time to investigate the potential or lack of potential of this company.

It is much appreciated.

Arturo

Q: Sherrit has been on a good tear the last few days, without significant new information (far as I can tell) since their quarterly update.

Is this recent uptick due to production results at Ambatovy? Do you think funds are buying in?

More importantly, where do you think this stock will be in 6-12 months?

Thx,

Cam.
