Q: Hi Peter.
I, ve purchased Canacol energy( CNE ) sixteen months ago and am under water on it. Lately some analysts and fund mangers were more upbeat on the prospects for this company and Columbia altogether. I believe T.D. has a 8.00$ price target on the stock ,a year from now, and insiders have been buying the stock, lately. What is your outlook on Canacol, and should I average down on it? Thank you and have a good day.

Q: Hi Peter and crew: I am curious about (PXL) Palliser oil and gas. It hasn't been doing much for some time but I am wondering if this is a buying opportunity as so much of the oil patch has been doing the same.

Q: Hi, Peter et al: Re: Freehold Royalties Ltd. [FRU], where does one find out if there's been a downgrade? I checked the FRU 'news' at TMX, my own discount broker, Yahoo finance Canada, and Freehold's Web site and no such information appears. How does a person find out if there's been either an upgrade or a downgrade? Thank god I check your 'member questions' daily or I'd be lost. Also, when CIBC (or any other analyst up- or downgrades anybody, do they have to give a reason?
Thanks, Dale

Q: HEE - Horizon's Enhanced Income Fund.
. The stock is close to its 52 week low.
. But the monthly dividend has dropped from a high of 8 cents to a recent 3 cents per share.
. Questions: 1. Would this likely be a good time to buy? And, 2. Would it be realistic to expect the monthly dividend to increase if the underlying stocks increase in price?

Thanks again!
