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

Q: Could you remind me why you decided to add Trevali to your growth portfolio? Is your thesis still intact? The stock is close to the same level that it was in early 2017, but global inventories are lower and the price of zinc is still higher than it was in early 2017. This makes me think that Trevali's stock price has more chance of going up (a lot) than to keep declining. Comments? Thanks.

Q: The share price on this company is on a tear since the 1/4ly report.
Do you think this because it was a good report and people are buying back in, looking back to where the share price was 3 years ago with the hope of a good capitol gain, or is this a typical case of piling on to get the special dividend, only to sell, sell, sell, once it goes ex-dividend next Friday.
Thanks again for all your wonderful insights.

Q: I have owned and traded this stock for some time.Being a small cap,liquidity is low.After the recent news it was up on higher volume.
It is now down the last two days on light volume which tells me traders are taking a quick profit.Is it possible manipulation is occurring?The long term prospects of this company look good,so it is possible for a manipulator to depress the price(on light volume)and pick up more shares when all the weak hands have abandoned the stock?

Q: PHO announced that they are looking to get approval to list on the TSX "very soon". Once listed on the TSX will the share rise because all of the ETF will have to buy into the stock or will that be accounted for in the listing and will not impact the share price? Also with $3M buyback this should indicate that management thinks the share is currently undervalued.

thanks
Sal

Q: I have a question regarding SIS's dividend. Maybe I am mistaken, but most ''growth by acquisitions'' type of companies usually either pay a small dividend or no dividend at all. CSU, ATD or GUD/Paladin come to mind. The logic being that more value is created by investing the money than giving back directly to shareholders. SIS, on the other hand, pays an high dividend that has been growing quite rapidly in the last year. What is your opinion on this? Have you ever asked them why they pay this amount of dividend or have they ever explained it? I understand they usually sound quite confident in the future but still, I am curious.

Thank you!
