Comparing the top four companies in the the waste disposal business.

Q: First question on this company (V.BABY). It's a food and nutrition company that focuses primarily on infants, toddlers and children. In the last 6 weeks, it has picked up serious momentum as it has obtained clean label certifications, USDA organic certifications and retail broker agreements in preparation for the initial launch of its products in the US.

Q: Hello Peter,
When a sector is up, and some stocks in that sector are down, is that a cause for concern or just a day to day event? I am looking at gold , and the sector is surging whereas Karora and Novo Resources are trending downward.. Is it still a good time to buy into those? Also, what do you think of alamos gold at this levels of $15 plus.. thanks very much.
