Q: Hi Peter and Team, regarding Novus, NVS, is it normal for the stock to be halted this long? Based on your experience, your thoughts on why they don't let the stock trade would be interesting. Clearly they must be in negotiations but why not clarify with any material information and let the stock trade again? Also, for those members interested in NVS there was an interesting blurb yesterday on BNN, The Close, by Andrew McCreath with Michael Hainsworth. Thanks!

Q: Hi Peter and Team, regarding Novus, NVS, I just read that Hong Kong Economics Times has a blurb about Yanchang Petrolium International Ltd wanting to fully acquire NVS for 500 million Cdn 'according to market sources'! Have you heard this through your sources by any chance? If possibly true, then would this value NVS shares at about 2.20 cdn per share (after debt repayment) or have I miss calculated? Is it just another rumour or will NVS be required to halt the stock and report on this if there's some truth to it? Your thoughts on this before markets open would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Q: Hi Peter and team I have a comment and question re: Zargon. I last asked about this in May. Over the year I have been accumulating shares and I am now in a profit position up 5 % in one a account and over 12% in another. This was quite painful for a while as the shares kept going down. Recently the shares have been in pronounced upturn - almost exponential. My thesis was for once and at least temporarily proven correct: that the shares would rebound once we approached the start up of their new Enhanced Oil Recovery Project (EOR) in 2014 which is a company maker(breaker) . However since I have quite a bit of money here do you think it is time to cash in some or all of these holdings? Also would the expenditures on their EOR project have led to your statement that the all-in payout ratio was 150 % in your August 13 comment? Thanks

Q: Hi Peter and Team, if Lightstream, LTS, formerly Petrobakken, PBN, was to cut its dividend payout by 50% or more and/or if the DRIP was cancelled then would that materially affect the current stock price to move in a positive direction? Wouldn't this be in the best interest of all shareholders? Why not cut the dividend substantially for now, while oil prices are high, take a hit, which they already are in terms of share price anyway, and start paying down debt much faster while oil prices are co-operating? Seems as though this would only help the share price for the long term! Thanks!
