Q: Hi Guys,

This is a RANT! NLN is the last straw for me.

I believe the small investor has NO chance in the market.

I own approximately 40 stocks. I follow all of these stocks on a daily basis reviewing 3 different news feeds, I have alerts set up on all of them and I go to their web sites when something happens to the stock price.

NLN released quarterly results on Monday. They weren’t great but not terrible. When I looked at the stock price it was down 40%. I couldn’t believe this was due to the results. I checked all my news feeds, googled the company, went to the company web site, sent you a question ….. nothing, except the quarterly report. For the fun of it, I tried Stockhouse forums. Low and behold, the company is losing the NHL as a revenue source. How is it possible that there is no news item or a notice from the company on such an important issue? How did the forum people get this information? Why is it not released to everyone at the same time? The news flow is FIXED!

I have decided to sell all my small and mid-cap stocks and not invest in this area again. In addition, I will reduce the investment in each individual stock. ETF’s here I come!

The only good thing for me with NLN is that it was a "fun" stock and I did not lose much.

Regards
John

Q: What is your opinion on the latest QR? Is it expensive with the sell-off this morning? Is this a buying opportunity?

Q: I am wondering if you have an opinion on Hudson Resources? I have owned shares in the company for a few years, awaiting news which we saw today, that they signed a very large contract with Owens Corning for the sale of anorthosite to be used in the manufacturing of fiberglass. Supposedly this is the first of many supply agreements to be signed but the PR said that this agreement covers the major portion of the initial required volume. Supposedly this company will become a big cash cow, with very little capital required. The only problem is that it doesn't seem like any brokerage firms cover the company. After this PR only $80k has traded today. Just wondering if you have looked at this company in the past or if you have seen brokerage coverage on it?

Q: My question is regarding TSL (Tree Island Steel) who today released 2nd quarter results.Could you please comment on the latest numbers ? Please state pros and cons with regards to this company being the great entity it once was prior to the housing collapse of '08. Would you know what % of their sales is derived from residential, commercial , industrial & agricultural sectors ? are they as vulnerable to the Chinese dumping very cheap fasteners on the market today as they were in their heyday ? thanx Norm

Q: Can I have your comments on the recent decline. Is it an over-reaction to HCG? If HCG is dumping brokers, couldn't SCB be picking these brokers up? Overall thoughts on the company as well.

Thanks,

Q: Why the dramatic drop in share price? Thanks, Austin

Q: With the nice selloff in LND from 24c to 17c, would you consider the current price a reasonable entry point? One of my concerns are the warrants outstanding, which may put pressure on the shares. Your thoughts?

I have done some due diligence, and believe the business model to be quite attractive.

Q: Hi there,

I have read that Slyce may be a few quarters or a few big announcements away from doing anything positive but am still surprised at the huge drop today after holding on for a long time in the mid .40's. Any news here or do you think it was just someone deciding to exit a large position that drove it down?
