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?
With appreciation,
Ed

Q: Good day. In various news updates etc. on some of the stocks I own I see press releases from law firms reaching out to investors who have lost money investing in a certain company to contact them regarding potential class action. Are these notifications non-events with law firms fishing for business or is something else going on? Investors in Novavax with losses exceeding $100,00 is the most recent request I've seen. Thanks

Q: Earlier I asked whether it is allowed to transfer the "dividends" only of a stock that pays those dividends in $US - I have the stock in my Cdn RRSP and I would like to transfer the $US "dividends" to my $US RRSP in order to save fx fees. I beleive it is called "journalling". Your reply noted the word "stock" not dividends.

Q: Hi 5i Team - Once again thanks for your calm and to-the-point advice on guiding us through another volatile market situation. This is yet another question on Lightspeed. There are four parts: What is its cash position, does it have debt and if so is it manageable, what are the insider holdings/ has there been any recent buying or selling, does it have a solid management team that can guide it through this turmoil. Thanks.

Q: Everyone, at times when the market is in a short term downward trend I look at the companies 3 or 5 year share price and it always cheers me up. If the fundamentals have not changed then the long term trend will always continue UP :) Clayton

Q: Toi closed the end of oct at $138. To day it was as low as $98 before recovering slightly.
Do you think Csu and Toi insiders are selling Toi shares to provide funds to the new venture capital fund?
Does Toi have their own acquisition team or do they rely on Csu?
Is Toi restricted to only Europe ?
Would they have enough cash flow to finance an acquisition or will they have to borrow or issue shares?
Finally if one planned to invest $30,000. today in Csu and Toi for at least a a 5 year hold,how should one proportion it?

Q: Dear 5i,
I often see and hear the word "growth" describing a particular stock in the media. This term seems very nebulous to me. Does it refer to earnings growth, sales growth, revenue growth, operating cash flow growth, free cash flow growth, others??? Analysts often say a stock is expected to grow 10% but, what does that really mean? Hope you can clarify.

thanks
