Q: In answering Maida's question "was short selling putting downward pressure on JE?" you noted that there were only 7.8 million shares sold short. On BNN yesterday when interviewing Andrew McCreath, Andrew made the point that when you include the US exchange that 30% of the float (issued shares less insider owned shares)had been shorted.

Given the current dividend, isin't this an expense stock to short? Might the shorts get squeezed, especially if JE ramps up its share buy-back?

Q: Hi,
I have held the major canadian banks over the past 20 years and as a result pleased to do so. I have always wanted to diversify into U.S. banks but just never invested my time to do the proper due diligence. Would the U.S. regional banks be a good area to begin my search? Or would you recommend staying out of U.S. financials totally?
Thank you,
Mike G.

Q: Hi Peter - I'm interested in hearing your comments on Serengeti Resources (SIR) on the Vancouver Exchange trading now at about 0.08 Like many of the junior mining companies it has done poorly over the past year but I'm wondering if there might be other reasons for its declining stock price. Also on March 20 it announced an issue of about 2.6 million stock options which can be exercised for shares at 0.12 with a five year time horizon. First of all is this kind of announcement generally negative for the company and specifically should I be concerned that the price of 0.12 is only 4 cents above the current price. Thanks.
