Q: Hi,

It seems that many of your members have noticed the decline in TEVA and are optmistic for its recovery. This situtation reminds me a bit of TECK from 2015. I never purchased TECK back in 2015 when it was sub $5 because you cautioned about its debt level. TECK has since gained to $27. Do you have more concerns about TEVA now than you did about TECK two years ago? There is certainly upside to TEVA, but a cheap stock can always get cheaper.

Even now, the short interest (according to my RBC account is less than 7%). Have the short sellers moved on from this one?

What is the probability of bankruptcy? If this isn't likely, how much worse can it really get?

Q: Hi Peter, can I get your thoughts on Teck. Its seems to have trouble getting thru the $35.00 level, I've held since 2013 where I bought it at $24.00, saw it go to 3.80 and now its back up. Is there any particular reason for this resistance at the $35.00 level, what would it take to break thru this level and is that possible. Thanks, Nick

Q: I think I see an opportunity in material and mining stocks.
I own FM, HBM and TECK.B.
Could you provide three or four other names that appear have some tailwinds and any headline risk I should be aware of.
Thank you
Kyle

Q: Outside of Gold I only hold TV in the materials sector. Can you name a few equities that you would recommend that are not oil related? What weighting would you suggest for this sector overall? Thank-you as always.

Q: I currently have about 5%- 7% of my portfolio in materials - SJ and MX specifically. If you accept the thesis that worldwide economic growth is improving would it be wise to also have some metals representation in my holdings or would you expect all materials to grow at the same time - i.e. a rising tide lifts all ships. I was thinking of Teck.B for this purpose if you think it is warranted. I do realize that 3 stocks are usually better than two for diversification but I only want to add (or switch) if you think I would be missing out on an important sector.

Appreciate your insight.
