Q: Hi Peter,
I hold a little bit IVN and currently under the water. Usually the season strength for metal is from January to April but stock keeps going down and no sign on turning around. Can you please comment your view on the stock? Would you hold or sell it at this level?

Thank you,
Shawn

Q: Hello, I'd like to know what you think of Roxgold and Semafo. Their latest press releases seem promising but on the other hand, the fact that their activities are concentrated in Burkina Faso may add a considerable risk. Is the business risk already included in the share price? With the rise in gold prices, this could be an interesting investment opportunity. If you had to choose between the two, which one would you take with the assumption that the risk is not considered too high. Thanks a lot.
