Q: I thank Peter and all the folks at 5i for your insight and advice on investing matters. I'm coming up to my renewal date and will definitely be renewing!
I have a position (approx 10% / $10k) in Automodular (AM), on the basis (among other things) of their diversification plans into non-automotive i.e. wind energy.
On May 13 you mentioned in response to another member's question the end of AM's wind contract.
What would be the source of that information? Where, other than chance hearing it from you, would an investor learn of such developments?
If AM are planning on or in danger of "getting out of" the non-automotive business, it would be time for me to rethink my investment in AM.

Q: CAD (Colonial Coal) Last summer Desjardins suggested this met coal company with interests in northeast BC was a possible takeover candidate with a price target of $1.35 (since reduced to .95). Price then was .75 but has since dropped to the .35 range, which is just above tangible book. What is your view? Just another best-avoided penny stock, one to keep an eye on or worth a small position at this price?

Q: Hi Peter and 5i: What is your assessment of Acadian's (ADN) quarter (the business, not the stock, to start with)? Then, while the stock may be up nicely on 52 weeks, it has spent most of the last 3 months below its 50-day moving average and for anyone who bought near the January peak it must feel somewhat painful. Would you be patient with the stock at this point or look for a vehicle with a better participation record? The ETF WOOD is up over the same three month period. ADN has the yield and dividend tax credit advantage but WOOD has been better on total return. Thoughts? Thanks!

Q: Peter,

EKD is trading at 9 cents but based on the acquisition by SYZ for $5M it should be valued at around 16 cents. Am I missing something here.

Thanks and keep up the great work!

Q: Hi 5i
Are you still comfortable with WEQ?
Would a 5 % position be too big for a company of this size?
Would you recommend buying before the upcoming quarterly report or waiting until afterward?
Thanks!
