Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I have purchased cum before on your recommendation but sold all my shares at higher prices. Is it time to buy some shares for growth for 2-3 yr. period. Also, who are the sellers in SGY and WCP to drive the price down? My idea of SGY with all this hedging is that it was a good price at $8, so it must be a bargain at $6.60?

Q: Today I checked out INK insider selling/buying reports on all 40 or so stocks I hold, a very conservative diversified across all sectors mix of mostly dividend growing and paying US and canadian stocks. INK indicates almost all of my positions have net insider selling except TCK.B. which has small net insider buying. I have never done this exercise before. How useful do you find insider buying/ selling info. Is this perhaps an indication the market is frothy and perhaps we should be selling some portion of our positions and not buying? Teck as a long term hold does look pretty good right now, would you buy?
Thanks Manfred

Q: Hi Peter and team, Banro Corp down nearly 72% YTD. Will this stock eventually be worthless? I hold a smaller position and down about 45% on it. P/B ratio is only 0.01. Is this a cheap stock with a chance of revival or a bad investment that an investor should run away from?

Q: Hi Peter and team, leading gold mining companies like G, ABX, YRI, K are all trading at multi year low levels. P/B ratios for YRI and K are well below 1. Aren't these companies are deeply undervalued? If so is it ok to have a slight bias towards gold mining sector to seize an opportunity for the next 6 - 12 months.

Q: My mining sector holdings including Yamana and Teck are down but still make up 6% of my portfolio. I'm fairly diversified but very light on Healthcare. I like dividends with some growth but am not risk averse. I have about a half position of cash to invest. Should I top up the mining sector or should I spread out to healthcare? If healthcare, any suggestions would be appreciated.

Q: Hi Peter, Do you know what percentage of revenues come from K's mine in Russia? Given that the situation with Russia is getting worse and worse, I'm worried the company could very well be a candidate for expropriation. What are your thoughts on that and how much more downturn can the stock have if that were to occur?

Thanks a lot!
