Q: On BNN you mentioned that we were probably in the sixth inning for auto related stocks. Are you making a correlation to baseball? Or does this refer to 6th inning out of 10 in business terms.

Q: With just a 1% weighing in crew and the apparent stock momentum on crew, would you buy more to average down the cost. I know you prefer stocks that are going up but it seems to have some momentum.

Q: What is happening to the price of silver?
Most if not all major silver producers have an all in costs that are higher than the $17 spot silver price.
Is this a buying oppotunity that comes once in a lifetime, or a slippery slope to the poor house? How long could this inverse last? Look at First Majestic's chart, it's getting very expensive to me..
Thanking you in advance..

Q: I am looking at purchasing 2000 shares of Surge Energy. This will be the one energy company in my portfolio. It will be 7% of the total investible assets. I am looking at holding for 2 years or longer. I like the dividend. I see the company released information about the low oil prices this evening, and their thoughts on this and how it will effect their investments in the future, and the safety of their dividend. What are your thoughts. New member yesterday and I am greatly impressed with your comments on Market Call yesterday. A great website.
Thank you

Q: hey peter,

can you give an update on FEYE. It seems to have found some footing over the past 6 months. Is it worth a look again?

Q: Sorry to bring this up again. I'm just unsure of what to do with this position. In your previous response for a longer term it seems like good value at the time. Since then the stock has just dropped like a stone. I should have stayed away since your "D" rating is pretty clear, but i didn't. What do you recommend to be done now? can this rebound or is this company set to disappear? it's a shame as it's a great technology that they have. Thanks for your great service. My return on DHX has been amazing and I would have never picked it up if it wasn't for you.

Q: Hello Peter and team,
I have a small holding in Contrans. I have not yet tendered to the offer but I want to get out in the near future, whether it is by tender on the 31st or into the market. Do you have any suggestions about whether to sell before the 31st, tender on the 31st (hoping they reach the 2/3 threshold) or sell next week?
This is my first experience with a takeover of a stock and a question has come up for future reference: if I tender does it become a binding agreement or can I subsequently sell my shares on the market if the offer is extended?
Thanks in advance, I love the service you provide.
Rory

Q: Hi 5i Team
I am sitting at 14% Energy with BDI, PEY,VET and QST and 13% Basic Materials with G, SJ,and RUS.. I have approx 5 to 10K to invest and would like your advice as to whether I should take advantage of lower energy and Materials stock prices i.e. Whitecap WCP and First Quantum FM or into recent top picks Trimac TMA and EXco XTC. I do not have any Transportation nor Auto related stocks currently.
Regards
Kathy

Q: Why is there such a negative 'pall' hanging over this company? The Bal. Sheet is good (re. $24M in cash), the co. is profitable and the 'story' about railroad technology is rather compelling from my perspective. Do you think this is the bottom for the price of the stock? What investment grade do you give this company?

Thanks, again, for your insight and analysis.
