Opinions from Hap (Robert) Sneddon FCSI

TOP PICKiShares MSCI Singapore E.T.F.EWS-N15.900Likes to have his money outside of Canada and he likes the Asian story. Wants investments that mitigates the Cdn$. Pretty volatile but a nice way to play China.2007-10-09
TOP PICKiUnits Materials E.T.F.XMA-T36.800Bullish on base metals. In spite of the 12% correction in Canada and 14% in the US, the story is still pretty good. Until he hears otherwise, they are going to continue holding up. Thanks pricing is still good on the fundamental sign for aluminum, nickel and copper.2007-10-09
TOP PICKFording Canadian Coal Trust (Inc Trust)FDG.UN-T40.060Has just broken out of a base. Metallurgical coal prices are going up. Pays an excellent return as a yield.2007-10-09
BUYEMC CorpEMC-N21.810The on-balance volume, relative strength and moving averages all paint a very positive picture. MACD has turned up recently. Relative strength is around 65 or 70, which says that it has not been too overbought.2007-10-09
CommentStarfield Resources Inc.SRU-T1.750Great pop in May and now seems to be stuck in a trading range. Moving average for the same time is trying to tell you that it is almost ready to give you a Sell signal, but hasn't done that yet. You can't lead a MACD indicator; you have to let it penetrate. A concern is the relative strength in May compared to the current weaker relative strength. Volume indicates people are buying.2007-10-09
HOLDBirchcliff Energy Ltd.BIR-T4.360The chart doesn't tell you very much. Seems to be in a band between $3.75 and $4.90. It is showing a potential of having a MACD crossover. The whole energy sector as a group has not really gone anywhere. Feels the downside is limited.2007-10-09
PAST TOP PICKBCE Inc.BCE-T40.350(A Top Pick Jan 30/07. Up 57.1%.) At the time, telecommunications was screaming that it was a good place to be. Pricing was good.2007-10-09
PAST TOP PICKiShares MSCI Italy E.T.F.EWI-N35.780(A Top Pick Jan 30/07. Up 5.8%.) Still bullish on Europe. Still likes this one.2007-10-09
PAST TOP PICKiShares MSCI France E.T.F.EWQ-N39.190(A Top Pick Jan 30/07. Up 13.8%.) There was a Sell signal back in the summer so he sold his holdings.2007-10-09
HOLDWachovia CorpWB-N51.420Part of a recent bump up from the summer in financials. Short-term moving averages looks like it is trying to give you a signal.2007-10-09
HOLDWachovia CorpWB-N51.420Not interested in the financials, but they do give a bit of concern right now and would like to see a bit of carry through.2007-10-09
HOLDWi-Lan Inc.WIN-T3.220Doesn't know the fundamentals, but it looks like it is trying to build a bit of a base.2007-10-09
BUYQualcomQCOM-Q42.651Likes the sector. Above its 50/200 day. Relative strength is good. MACD still says to hang on to it.2007-10-09
CommentPotash Corp of SaskatchewanPOT-T111.000An exceptional uptrend. Usually the issue is whether you are a short or long-term investor. For short-term, and you have a narrow window with prices being more sensitive, you might want to wait until it comes back to the trend line. For long-term investors were indicators are good, you probably can't go to wrong. The MACD looks like it is trying to register a signal, but hasn't quite completely crossed it.2007-10-09
WATCHPetromin Resources LTD.PTR-X0.410The chart doesn't tell a lot. Looks like it is stuck in a trading range. The MACD had registered a Sell signal a couple of weeks ago. Trading has been halted, so whatever story comes out of this may reverse the MACD. Volume indicates it is being accumulated.2007-10-09
WAITResearch In MotionRIM-T113.650Anything along the up channel would probably be a good entry point. He would recommend anything on a pullback to $95 to $100.2007-10-09
HOLDTimminco Ltd.TIM-T18.140MACD is still positive. It is still above its 50 and 200 moving averages and there is a lot of air space there. The stock has been accumulated all the way up on its rise. He wouldn't be surprised if it wants to come back to a round the $11 level, but right now there is nothing to suggest to get out of it.2007-10-09
CommentA Comment -- General Comments From an ExpertA Commentary0.020Stop Losses – For a stop-loss, you can use a 10-day, 10 week trailing stop or a true range stop. For the latter, you should check this online.2007-10-09
BUYSolana Resources Ltd.SOR-X2.200Has a nice little move from the base that was built into June. Oil/gas sector has really not gone anywhere. MACD is above both its moving averages and looks like it is trying to give a bit of a Sell signal, but looks like a pretty good story. Stock is being accumulated.2007-10-09
SELLAlimentation Couche-Tard (B)ATD.B-T20.230Has been in a long-term decline. The consumers staples sector has been weakening on a relative basis. Before getting into the stock, you would like to see it hold and build a base for the time being. There are probably better stocks available.2007-10-09
CommentSandvine Corp.SVC-T6.840Pretty good up move into September, but recently has shown a double top, but on short-term basis you are going to see this all the time. MACD looks like it is trying to cross over. Keep an eye on the 50-day moving average as well as the MACD Sell signal. Technology sector is a pretty good sector right now.2007-10-09
TOP PICKiUnits Materials E.T.F.XMA-T32.160This has been one of the strongest, dominant sectors in the last number of years. Since good pricing for nickel and uranium. Likes it on a long-term, 5-10 year basis.2007-05-08
TOP PICKiUnits Info TechXIT-T8.470Thinks it could be easily a double. The 2 main components are Nortel’s (NT-T) restructuring story and RIM (RIM-) with the launch of its Pearl line.2007-05-08
TOP PICKCanadian National R.R.CNR-T57.850The recent break from past congestion stood out. Settlement of the strike and are past the worst weather in the West. Excellent cash flow.2007-05-08
BUYOpen TextOTC-T26.040Likes the technology sector. Valuation is reasonable. Good upwards trend line.2007-05-08
CommentTSX GroupX-T42.560$50 is at risk of moving below 200 day moving average and the momentum on the MACD is out of the stock. Be cautious.2007-05-08
BUYCott CorpBCB-T17.760Consumers’ staples is becoming interesting. The MACD is in the process of bottoming. $17 is a key level and can see some upside from here. Good risk/reward ratio.2007-05-08
BUY on WEAKNESSBreakwater ResourcesBWR-T2.420Chart looks good. He likes the base metals market.2007-05-08
HOLDHewlett-Packard CoHPQ-N45.010There are other areas of technology that he would prefer, but if you own it, Hold.2007-05-08
HOLDConocoPhillipsCOP-N70.250In the last 14-15 months, the oil sector has not really gone anywhere. It is now in a period where you “ wait and see”.2007-05-08
PAST TOP PICKBCE Inc.BCE-T37.500(A Top Pick Jan 3007. Up 23%.) Had picked it because of the sector and it had a fantastic dividend. Pretty good support, but would be a little cautious at $34.2007-05-08

PAST TOP PICKiShares MSCI France E.T.F.EWQ-N38.330(A Top Pick Jan 3007. Up 13%.) Has been happy with this, but may be clearing out in the summer. MACD seems to be waning.2007-05-08
BUYOilexco IncOIL-T9.270Has outperformed oils in general. In a recent underwriting, an over allotment was taken up, which is usually a good sign. At a recent discovery at Kildare, which is positive. Would be cautious on the trend line, but it could go much higher.2007-05-08
CommentThomson Reuters CorpTRI-T45.770Acquiring Reuters Group (RTRSY-Q) resulting in a drop in price. May be a short-term blip. MACD was starting to wane just prior to the run-up. (Part of the discretionary sector, which is starting to wane in general too.) Wait to see how this plays out.2007-05-08
WAITMega Uranium LimitedMGA-T6.920Has dropped back to its support level. He would like to see it hold its trend line and let the MACD sort of rise up. Likes the sector. Doesn't know the stock’s fundamentals.2007-05-08
WAITEncana CorpECA-T62.930He feels the more pure gas plays look better than the oils. Looks like it is trying to break through some resistance. Wait for a little more confirmation, a Friday's close. 1.4% yield.2007-05-08

TOP PICKiShares MSCI Italy E.T.F.EWI-N33.300Good upward trend since 2003. Going forward, he expects 10% to 15%. The economy tends to be more manufacture based. Sees a shift happening from producers of commodities to more users.2007-01-30

WATCHActivision Inc.ATVID-Q16.720Had a nice uptrend since July and had a rounded top in July, which would give him some concerned. If you own, you might want to take some off the table. Keep an eye on the $16-$16.30 range.2007-01-30
