Q: Hi,
Thanks for the tip of TMXMONEY to identify the sectors. It turns out I had miss-classified 3 of my stocks (SJ, IPL and ECI). I'm now questioning my weightings. I currently have the following:

Cons. Cyclical 11.9%
Cons. Defensive 0.0%
Financials 17.1%
Healthcare 3.6%
Energy 14.7%
Precious Metals 13.9%
Real Estate 0.0%
Industrials 9.2%
Utilities 0.0%
Technology 24.5%
Materials 4.6%
Communication 0.0%

I'm ok with some risk, which is probably evident from above. My precious metals may be a little high due to the recent bounce in this sector.

Based on the current market environment, do you see these weighting as appropriate? Are there any particular red flags that you see?

Thanks, Ian

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
I realize that a Penny Stock is highly speculative. I am just curious how they progress to become a viable investment. Please give me your assessment of KG. Do they have a good asset? Do they have the funding? How would you rate there management team? Will they ever get a shovel in the ground or will they just fade into the wind like so many other Penny Stocks? Ha!Ha!
