Investment Q&A

Q: About PAA
is it time to buy here.Is the balance sheet still looking good as the cost of producing silver has risen?
Is the dividend sustainable?
Are there any other stocks that are ripe for "the picking" besides the portfolio

Q: I would like to know if you have an opinion on PAA Pan American Silver. Thank you.

Q: Hi Peter, I tried the best I could with the TD stock screener to follow the "Franklin" approach talked about in the Canadian Money Trader a few months ago. The two Canadian stocks that met the screening criteria were Iamgold (IMG) and PanAmerican Silver (PAA). PAA also has strong insider buying. Any comments on these?

Q: Hi 5i. Your thoughts on Pan American Silver. How would they do in the short term?

Thanks

Q: Peter, just a short note to say thank you, for your July 24, 2012, response on silver stocks. I got lucky and bought shares of PAA same day at $13.89. Price is what you pay. Value is what you get.WB
Best regards Larry
