Q: Hi Peter. Hope you are having a good day. I like Horizon North Logistics (HNL.TO) for the cash flow growth and dividend. Are there any negatives that I should be aware of because it has pulled back 20% in price recently? I thought the recent results were fine but what do you think? I really value your opinion.

Thanks,
Anthony

Q: The decision to buy a stock is made easier with your simple A,B,C,D scoring system and I really appreciate that. My questions is: Will 5i report, or make note of, when a good time to sell comes up for a previously high-scored company? If so what would be your indication - a downgrade to the previous score or should I be looking for something else?

thanks!

Q: What is your opinion of the current market situation. Are companies like Silver Wheaten and Barrick bargains at this point or do you think that they will continue to drop?

Q: Golden Minerals (AUM) dropped 18% today with no apparent news. The commodity markets are passing through a tough period but don't you think a drop of 18% is too much. Do these kind of drops have some big insiders unloading before the news becomes public? Is there something inherently wrong with the company as I do not see a catalyst except weak earnings which were already discounted into the price?

Q: Any Thoughts on Sandstorm Metals and Energy (SND)? i believe they should do well long term due to the management's past experiences. the company has had one or two hicups with regard to Royal Coal's bankruptcy, however, they are debt free and sitting on close to 40Million in cash and also they are currently trading below guaranteed cash flow, however, their is the risk of their other companies not meeting their targets. overall, i see more upside at current prices especially if ones time horizon is 5 years or more. how would you grade SND, and if you could kill two birds with one stone, then take a look at SSL also, the big sister.
