Q: Good morning from B.C.

I woke today to see that Richmont Mines announced a bought deal financing valued at 34 million (they are selling X# of shares at $4.00 a piece).

My take is that $4.00 is a great price for them to get (seems that financial institutions usually extract a price much lower than current market value when doing these), but am unsure what it means bigger picture. I think 5i generally doesn't like these sorts of events as it dilutes current shareholders, however I'd appreciate your thoughts on RIC specifically.

Is this a bullish event for RIC?

Thanks so much.

Q: Would you recommend two or three junior gold stocks with decent potential that already haven't caught "the oil shift wave" and risen dramatically recently? And, would you recommend Harmony Gold?
On another note, how do credits work if a member renews? My subscription expires in the fall - do I start fresh with a new term?
Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter and team - Argonaut Gold announced today a shareholders rights plan. Generally is this a positive or negative for the stock. Also is it possible that this indicates they are anticipating a hostile takeover bid sometime in the future. Thanks.

Q: Following your recent comments on Tck, can you please comment on their overall debt level. Specifically the Deferred income and resource taxt liabilties in the amount of approx. 6B$ on their balance sheet. Can you explain what it is and is it considered real debt that has (or will have) to be repaid ? I was holding Tck in 2008-09 when things got pretty bad and from what I remember, the balance sheet of the company is better now (2MB$ cash + revolving) at current commodity prices. I hope they learned from 08 as I believe it is the same CEO ?. I like the diversification, dividend and upside potential. Do you think the risk return scenario is appealing for 5 year +. Thank you.

Q: Good morning and thank you for the excellent service!

What are your thoughts on EDV's potential going forward in what seems to be a healthier gold price environment? How do they rank in terms of B/S strength, valuation, cost of production, growth potential versus peers? Are there other mid-cap names you would prefer?

Cheers

Q: I am embarrassed to say that I bought Teck a few years ago at $37 and have ridden it down to the current $14. I keep thinking it will recover, but it hasn't yet. I have a 4-6 year horizon and can be patient, and have a fairly balanced portfolio. Would you recommend further patience or should I just sell at a loss. Do you think the divident is safe?

thanks for your great work!

Bullion has been moving up and most golds are following...however today ASR lost 4.5%. Why are they not following the trend? Is there any negative news or problems in Turkey, the Swiss currency, profit taking or just a strange day? Please give me your thoughts...Thank you!

Q: Hi Peter & team, as of Friday's market close, G and K are up over 30% YTD. Apart from strength in gold price, are there any other reasons for this sudden upward move? Can we expect this trend to continue or will it reverse its course as it did in many occasions in the recent past. Thank you.

Q: Gold seems to be getting a bit of support even with the strong USD which is encouraging compared to other commodities. With a low CAD$ and cheaper oil CDN producers should have an advantage and be able to increase cashflow. I have G but am looking at other low cash cost producers with mines in Canada. What are your thoughts on Detour, Richmont, and New Gold? Any other suggestions?
