Q: What are your thoughts on the recent financing? I have heard it stated that it is an unwelcome development because the 20% Chinese ownership and 2 Board seats will give them an effective veto over a possible buyout and limit the upside. On the other hand, they will have enough money for several years of drilling, and possibly minimized dilution as much as possible, given the state of the uranium market. Would you buy at this price? Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter,
Is writing puts a good strategy to acquire stocks as you not only earn premium from day one which can be invested immediately and if you get called you will be buying the stock at a discount. I have adopted this strategy and I got called only once i.e potash which is offering me 8%dividend enough to cover my borrowing at 3% and don't forget the interest is deductible.
Thanks

Q: I am wondering if I can learn anything about retail investor psychology, the mind set of many and their "investing" approach so as to permit me to better understand and possibly forecast movements and/or trends, and timing, for example.
Specifically, having been a member here now for over a year I constantly see, but have not done a exact study, many, many members posting questions about the same handful of stocks over and over and over... Often only a day is all that exists between the last same/similar stock question in some shape or form with basically the same answer as the only answer available.
What might a lowly investor always striving to improve learn from this?
- Is it that some never read earlier posts?
- Is it that some only look here, say, once a week and do not have the time to do a search or read the heading for the day's posts?
- Is it because some think, "I paid so I can ask whatever, whenever I want"?
- Is it because they are nervous and not really as risk tolerant with stocks as they could be?
- Do they not simply go to Google Finance or some similar site and click on the NEWS once they entered a stock symbol? As this would answer many questions.
Am I missing something?
Inquiring mind(s) wonder!
Thanx for all you produce, provide, as well as, your tolerance and patience.
I can say I learn a lot about other, new to me, investing possibilities from fellow posters also.

Q: Would you or any of your members know how the distributions of XHY are taxed? I haven't been able to find any specific breakdown for income tax reporting purposes. Thank you!
Q: Which one would you pick?
Q: Am I correct in interpreting Mr Entwhistle's purchase of $10m of Telus shares as a large expression of confidence in the Company and as good news for Telus shareholders?
Can you speculate as to where the funds to make this purchase might have come from -- cash holdings (re)deployed, or would he have likely sold other holdings? It would really be interesting to know what, if anything, was sold to finance this purchase.
Thanks.
And may all of you at 5i, and all your members out there, enjoy all the blessings and peace of this holiday season.

Q: Hi,
What are the forecasted forward earnings for Uniselect? Qtrade shows Q4 2015 earnings declining over Q4 2014 earnings and 2016 earnings being less than 2015 earnings. Are you comfortable with purchasing this stock at today's levels and are there any significant risks to be aware of? Thanks.

Q: My question pertains to the loan Gud made to Extenway in June 2015. After looking at the Extenway financials I am perplexed to find a reason why GUD management would have entered into such an agreement in the first place. If their loan portfolio is anywhere close to this transaction I think there is a serious problem. Could I get your thoughts on this one.

Q: what would generally be your top 5 mutual fund families and why?
Q: Hi Peter, Ryan and Team;
My attention was brought to PTM by a video on BNN. Production is anticipated to commence in Q1 2016. I am thinking it might be an opportunity to buy now. I note there are 768.9M shares outstanding. It would be great to hear the current opinion of this company.

Q: With all the "green" power talk, I am considering an investment in nuclear power. Would you opt for a uranium miner or a nuclear power producer? What are your top dividend-paying Canadian picks in each category? Is it still a little too early for this? Do you see a better future in other sources like wind or solar v nuclear? I already hold some NG producers, which I intend to keep.
Thank-you
Thank-you
Q: What is your opinion of this fund. It has been declining sharply of late. Would you consider this to be a sell or a hold? In the past it has been a steady 5% income.
Thank you for your insight.

Q: Hi, can you please comment on which debt ratios are best to look at for survivability?
For example, debt/cashflow vs. debt/equity vs. debt/marketcap
Even if debt to cash flow is not too high, is there a point where the debt to marketcap is so high that everyone will shy away from it? For example TBE earlier in the year?
