Investment Q&A

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

Q: I am wondering if staff/exec have vested options, that are currently being sold, and that is accelerating the stock weakness over the past month (roughly from $40 down to $30).
Looking at the INK Insider report for last year, the graph shows substantial insider sales in May 2024, when the price went from $29 down to $19 (and then rebounded). Feb 2025 is exactly 3Q from May 2024, so this could match such a cycle (hypothetically).
I'm unsure how long insiders have, to file their sales, for February.
Any thoughts, or is this pure grasping-at-straws?

Q: Hello, I have long been a fan of Peter Hodson's team. Introduced thru Ellen Roseman's investment club.

I own JRVMF in my TFSA. Originally bought about $2,000 CDN worth of shares several years ago. I listened to my geologist neighbour.

Just received a package on the company's U.S. Chapter 11 proceedings (received by regular mail February 21, 2025, must respond by 5 p.m. CT February 25, 2025).

Package includes 1) notice of "Joint Prepackaged Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization" 2) "Notice of Non-Voting Status" and 3) a form for those who "elect to opt out of the third-party release" which must be returned tomorrow, Feb 25, 2025.

I gather I am not entitled to vote on the Prepackaged Plan. I assume this is a standard thing. Any advice on how to respond would be appreciated.

Never listen to your geologist neighbour. Thanks!

Q: Hello 5i!

I know this company has some significant geo-political challenges but are the fundamentals still attractive despite these risks?
Respecting you don’t have a crystal ball do you see the geo-political risks as too great to be a buyer or would you be buyers now that the stock has dropped 40% in a short period?
I am a growth oriented investor with higher tolerance for risk within reason.

As always thanks for your sage advice in these volatile times - your team continues to steer us with wisdom and reasonability and this is appreciated!

Q: I would appreciate your insights on these 2 early stage mining companies; primarily as a patient medium term copper play. I would not be surprised if they were purchased by a large player at some point, but understand one should not "hang their hat" on that end game.

Which would be your preferred and why? They would sit in a 25-30 y. olds TFSA account which, while it would not capture any capital loss would shelter gains.

Q: Hammond Power stock seems to have breached the $89 support level Today.

You don't like negative momentum.

Should we sell before losing more money as it looks like that tariff jitters are not going away for a while and next we could see a drop in the backlog, taking the stock a further leg down.

Thank You
