| DON'T BUY | 1.800 | Jeff Parent | Had a big drop last August followed by a nice rally in an attempt to recover from the highs. Market gave up on any positive news late last fall and now the stock is making new lows. Long-term prospects do not look good. | 2008-07-30 | |
| SELL | 2.050 | Peter Hodson | (Market call minute.)Small cap manager and this market is not good for small caps. | 2008-07-08 | |
| DON'T BUY | 4.640 | Colin Stewart | A merchant bank that owns a significant portfolio of resource stocks including mining, uranium and precious metals. Although the valuation and price to NAV has declined his concern would be the liquidity of the underlying stocks. | 2008-02-27 | |
| Comment | 3.710 | Jeff Parent | Finance company involved in the materials/energy sectors. Chart shows a drop in August that was in line with a market drop. Followed by a huge amount of volume. Some potential recoveries but there was another drop in January. A sign of a reversal. Now in a consolidation phase and we are at the apex point. Will break out at this time if it is going to go higher and could possibly go to $4.80. You have to exit if it drops below $2.90. | 2008-02-20 | |
| Comment | 3.510 | Robert Lauzon | This would be considered a merchant Bank of junior mining companies. You are essentially buying micro and small cap mining companies, many of which are uranium. Haven't been doing well recently. | 2008-01-28 | |
| WAIT | 3.750 | Brendan Kyne | A play on the mining sector. Probably feeling the reverberations from the subprime issues in the US. Believes this is only a short-term issue. This one could trade sideways for 6 months. | 2007-12-17 | |
| BUY | 5.030 | Derek Webb, CFA | This company has a lot of interests in different mining companies, one of them being uranium. It should do well if uranium does well. He is very bullish on uranium. | 2007-11-28 | |
| Comment | 4.580 | Michael Smedley | He is bullish on resources, which could mean a bit of an uplift. It did go through a precarious situation with margin calls coming close. They readjusted themselves to the realities about margins and are taking more emphasis on a cash position. | 2007-11-27 | |
| SELL | 4.710 | Paul Thornton | (Market Call Minute) Will be very volatile. | 2007-11-21 | |
| BUY | 4.550 | Michael Smedley | Merchant bank into very small mines and oil/gas companies and often participates in the financing and raising money. PE ratio of 3, reflecting the PE ratio of the mining sector. You have to accept the risk that there is no further downsizing in the minin | 2007-09-10 | |
| Comment | 12.780 | Dennis Dasilva | An incubator of junior companies and plays. Almost like a mutual fund. In the process of raising capital. Has had some questionable issues. | 2007-04-05 | |
| BUY | 11.950 | John Embry | Good, solid, closed end fund. Just had a 2 for 1 split. | 2007-04-03 | |
| BUY | 20.900 | Neil Wickham | This is a pool of small-cap venture companies. Most of them are focused on uranium and mining plays. Has done spectacularly well recently. Expects this will continue. | 2007-03-20 | |
| Comment | 11.800 | Michael Smedley | An interesting manager of equities. Very good interesting investments by this company. Very astute management. | 2006-10-19 | |
