Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: This is a follow-up to the question asked by Mike as to when to sell a stock.

How does paying attention to the five parameters mentioned apply to commodities? I am thinking specifically about oil, which is rising in price primarily (it seems) to unrest in Iraq. If, and when, that situation is resolved or at least quieted, should we expect the price of oil to decline? If so, does one look at trimming holdings in oil companies now as the price rises and portfolios unbalance or should we as investors wait and not adhere as strongly as we might normally do to portfolio weightings?

Thanks for the in-sight.

Q: Hello Peter & Co.
I'm thinking of adding some exposure to the energy field services sector. Hesitating between CEU and HWO. The latter seems to be at a good entry point after its recent drop.
Thanks

Q: great great stuff on Amaya, great article by ryan modesto. I had 15000 shares at 5.25 and rode it to 10. sold half when stocked dropped to 6.00, and bought it all back plus another 5000 at 9.00 when stock started moving quickly again, no complaints from me. last year paladin made my year and this year Amaya made my year all due to 5i research, unbelievable.only one caveat is for those of us who follow stocks hourly like me Amaya was a give away, news was leaked etc.etc., I wonder if the authorities will get on this one. dave

Q: The 5i team: First of all Peter many thanks for the AYA suggestion a long time ago. I would like to follow-up on your statement “We think the stock goes much higher from here”. Would you please elaborate on that. Thanks.

If a similar question is asked, please don't publish and clog up the Question and Answer section as it is a valuable investment tool.

As always, thanks to everyone at 5i for your valuable service.

Q: Thank you for the update on AYA. Very good news!
I went back to the charts for the last year and noticed that AYA was trading even below $7 for the month of April and even hit it's one year low. However, from then on it started to climb to it's incredible high right now. Can you comment on what may have contributed to this pattern? I'm thinking that people with insider knowledge (friends/family/etc) are passing on "tips".
Thanks for the wonderful service you provide!!!

Q: Dear Peter, First of all, thank you for your stock analysis on Amaya, and thank you also for your patience in answering my (our) questions. I am learning, but slowly, I know.
Question: you have said in a couple of places that Amaya is going much higher, but I can't tell if you said that after the roughly $14 closing price yesterday, or after the roughly $20 opening price this morning. (I now see--even more clearly--why you don't like price targets.) But i don't know what the shares in the bought deal being priced at $20 means, if anything, for the future. I have seen stock prices sink below the bought deal price with several companies. Thanks again, and cheers.
