Q: I have been watching Bevo for quite a while now. My wife took a very tiny position in it at 200 shares at 0.44 Now it is trading at $1.13 It is a very small company but to my wife and I it looks very interesting for a 7-10 year hold. Their financials look ok to me but what do you think? How big of a position would you start at in this company?

Q: Follow up question re graphene if I may. I'm wondering if a better strategy would be to invest in the technology developers and patent holders rather than the raw material miners. If I understand correctly, the technology requires miniscule amounts of material so I'm not sure if the miners are the real play here. Thoughts?

Q: Pivot announced has conditional approval to list on the TSX as of Dec. 19. With a share price of only 41 cents, would this be permitted or do you expect a share consolidation to occur? Also, with a market cap of only $70MM, does this really qualify for TSX listing? Dividend at 1 cent quarterly is 9.6%, which is certainly attractive. Do you have any further thoughts since the last couple of questions on this stock?

Q: Growth stocks
I am retired and using the investment income from my high-dividend stocks. I have a few clunkers which are going nowhere fast. I am thinking of substituting these (a modest amount) in Canadian growth stock, which I interpret as small/mid cap. Not wanting to make a choice myself or, or that matter, betting on one horse, I am thinking of the Pender Value Fund or a growth ETF. Comments on above?

Also, as I would buy this through my full-service broker (with whom I have a flexible arrangement), is there a transparent information source for the sales and management fees applicable to the various classes of mutual fund products - class A, class F etc?
