Q: Hi 5i,

Wondering what your thoughts are on the ALX/RPL merger? Suspect Peter knows RPL from his Sprott days?

Your view on the merger would be greatly appreciated. Do you think it's a buying opportunity?

Q: Just a comment, but whenever a company announces bad news like mccoy did yesterday and horizon north logistics did 3 weeks ago, for me this is a huge warning sign, i immediately sell and never return, your first loss is your best loss. There are so many great opportunities , why wait months until maybe these companies recover and that is a big maybe. I owned both mccoy and horizon and i am now long gone. I am averaging 16 per cent annual average return forthe last 10.5 years so i feel i know what i am talking about.have to disagree with you to hold mccoy, that was one awful announcement. Dave

Q: I just joined as a member today and like what I see so far.I'm considering buying BTE or WCP to round out my holdings of resource stocks.

Q: Hi.
I am very glad I subscribed to your newsletter and read the questions and your comprehensive responses faithfully on a pretty much daily basis.
My question is on silver. I would like to purchase a silver stock or etf that features a heavy silver presence. I only know of silver wheaton, but don't understand the concept involved with this stock. I understand it is not a mine, nor does it own bullion (at least I don't think it does). Many thanks for any recommendations.

Q: Hello 5i,
I am a holder of Augusta AZC and am almost back to my purchase price of $3.54 with the help of the offer by HudBay Minerals. Some of the larger shareholders are coming out to say they will not vote in favour of the offer. An article on the Globe this morning with regard to the offers made by HudBay for Augusta and Goldcorp for Osisko indicate that although the offers made are below fair value, (AZC estimated at $1 low per share) there are likely no other bidders that will come out of the woodwork to move the price higher. Do you see any more upside or would it be best to sell now. Thanks for the great work.
