Q: I am not sure if you are following the NKL proxy fight with Pelham but both sides seem to have some valid points. However, I find it hard to believe that the Board was going to give themselves 5% of the company in stock based compensation this year for what appears to be a holding company with little need for strategic planning. When Pelham pointed this out the Board removed the stock based compensation for this year. I'm inclined to vote for Pelham's directors. Do you have any comments or insight for me and others?

Q: Any idea what caused the 12% pop in NKL today? There hasn't been any news for a month from what I see although that news was basically good. Thanks.
Q: I’m looking for Canadian exposure to cobalt.
Can you please recommend me two or three options.
Medium risk is ok and I expect to hold for at least 10 years.

Q: Esteemed team, Nickel 28 took a 10%+ hit today but I can find no news that would trigger the selloff. Cobalt and nickel appear to remain in high demand.
Any info or opinions would be appreciated.

Q: I have relatively small speculative positions in these three companies and I am considering adding to them to reach the 1% level each. They have appreciated in price nicely. May I have your opinion on these three stocks?

Q: Peter & Co,
Nickel 28's Stock price (C$0.89) certainly does not appear to reflect the production, production growth, earnings or earnings growth of this nickel/cobalt miner.
EPS – Q3 US$0.07/share, Q1-3 US$0.19/share
P/E – 2.74x (assuming Q4 similar to Q3 and converting US$ to C$)
Debt - $79 million, down from 107.1 in Q3 2020
Cash – US$3.84 million
Product Pricing – Nickel and cobalt pricing is very strong and is projected to remain so.
I find this stock price to be very frustrating. What problem am I missing? Chinese partner? Venture Exchange? Microcap? Illiquid? Geography?

Q: Peter and Co,
What am I missing with Nickel 28? Please correct an inaccuracy or misunderstanding in my comments below.
Nickle 28 appears to be on a solid positive trajectory as a nickel-cobalt mining business yet the stock appears irrationally cheap. Net and diluted income has turned positive in recent quarters with Q1'21 registering $3.96 million, $0.05/share. If annualized, this provides a PE of 5. Debt during the period from Q! ’20 to Q1’21 dropped from $108 million to 92.8 million and a payment of $10.1 million is imminent. When this debt is retired Nickel 28’s interest in Ramu, the producing mine, will increase from 8.56% to 11.3% , a 31% increase in equity, at no further cost to NKL. With the current nickel and cobalt demand, I, a shareholder, am considering adding to my position but I have begun to wonder about management, the operating partner,...

Q: Not sure how I ended up with his company in my portfolio....obviously I'm not paying attention. Who are they? Are they worth holding? I prefer dividend paying stocks but if theres a bright future I'd hold onto them. I bought QST at 42 cents way back when and have done well with that non dividend paying stock.
