Kwantes refreshes Stornoway Diamond buy

2017-04-06 22:53 ET - In the News

James Kwantes, in the March 22, 2017, edition of Resource Opportunities, refreshes his buy of Stornoway Diamond Corp., recently 94 cents. Mr. Kwantes said buy on May 29, 2016, at 98 cents, and on Dec. 11, 2016, at $1. Assuming a $1,000 investment for each of the two buys, the $2,000 position is now worth $1,898. Stornoway's stock recently jumped thanks to the Washington Group's $1.1-billion (U.S.) hostile takeover offer for another diamond company, Dominion Diamond. Mr. Kwantes says this offer could "shake up Canada's diamond industry." It has certainly shaken up Stornoway's shares, which were as high as $1.30 on Oct. 24, 2016, but were just 87 cents the day before the offer for Dominion arrived. That drop reflects a disappointing diamond sale in November, production hiccups at Stornoway's Renard mine in Quebec and poor exploration results at its Adamantin property south of Renard. Mr. Kwantes is unfazed. He says Stornoway should start to generate free cash flow later this year, at which point the stock should be "rerated." As well, the Washington Group's offer for Dominion has rekindled interest in Canada's diamond sector, which in turn could bring more attention to Stornoway.
