Investment Q&A

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

Q: What are your thoughts of this closed-end fund? It has public and private investments, trades at a discount of course and with leverage to financials. I also wonder whether there would be a potential tax hit as I see they have gold acreage in Quebec carried at $0 ACB. I wonder what your opinion of management is - something here? Thanks! as a follow up to my question just asked, if you were to buy, would you look at the voting or NV shares? Thanks

Q: Peter, in the past you've indicated that you want to like this stock more. It's finally moved over this past half year, or so, as it's finally getting noticed again.

Can you get past the fees, etc., which you've objected to previously? To me, the fees are relatively modest, considering the discount to NAV, private holdings, astute management, overall long term decisions made by the company, etc.

They have a good sized stake in Real Matters, which will have its IPO in early May.

And, would you consider it ever for a spot in one of your coveted portfolios?

Thanks,
David

Q: Could you pls. recommend which of the above has the better near term stock price potential, in your view? SCB recently received their banking licence which had been a significant overhang on the stock. Urbana has finally experienced a breakout, and hold a huge position in Real Matters, which is supposed to IPO this spring.

Thanks, I joined the newsletter 10 minutes ago, after having watched and appreciated you, Peter, for about 10 years (via BNN).

Sincerely,
David
