Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Now down to these two mainstream gold companies. I think that perhaps that it might be a good idea to sell mux and use the proceeds to buy more KL. The later has been very profitable for me and unfortunately cannot say the same for mux. In that category would you consider buying ALS altius as an. option or something else. Thank you as always. Wishing you all the very peaceful and blessed Christmas and New Year.

Q: RBC has down graded ABX mostly because of concerns with the Acacia mine in Tanzania. I would like to increase my investment in ABX, as I think the market may be turning to the gold sector for safety in these turbulent times. How concerned should I be about the RBC report? Do you agree? In past comments you have favoured/suggested alternative gold companies, do you have a preference today? ABX is my only gold holding...………..Thankyou, Lionel

Q: This stock looks like good value to me compared to peers and the market in general. Has a low P/E, high ROE, and decent free cash flow generation which is quite uncharacteristic for the sector. In your opinion what has caused the SP to slide and do you think it is a decent spec buy? I've heard there is heightened political risk with this name. Could you speak to this a little? Thanks.

Q: Evrim Resources (EVM) dropped about 75% today on the latest drilling results from its 100% owned Cuale project in Mexico. However this company has several other projects which are well financed through joint ventures with other gold companies. I am just wondering if this stock has been oversold since there should be substantial value in the other projects even though they are joint ventured. Could you please comment on the accuracy of my take on this as well as any further information you could provide including the cash position, overall financial health, insider ownership/recent buying or selling, and quality/experience of management. Thanks as always for your great service.

Q: Hi 5i team - I have heard recently that the demand for nickel will increase as the production of batteries increases. Could you please give me your opinion on the accuracy of this statement and also your view on the supply of nickel. Is it really dwindling as the author of this statement claims. Are there other uses for nickel that could have an effect on the market. Also would you be able to provide the names of a few companies involved with nickel that you think are well managed with decent fundamentals. Perhaps one major producer, one smaller mid-tier producer and one or two whose main focus is exploration. Thank you.

Q: I heard a radio item about the growing demand for cobalt which is needed for batteries. It seems there are several cobalt mining ventures in Canada. Do you know of any that would make a respectable investment opportunity?

What do you think of First Cobalt and Cobalt 27 Capital?

Thanks!

Q: I know it’s early days, but from what I have read Mene has excellent potential, do you agree ?
Financing was announced Friday, and the stock went down seems excessive to me, new start ups usually do this to get money for expansion, they will have $ 40 M total cash after this financing. Would you buy Mene now ? Insiders own a lot of stock. Do you think we will know who the private investor is on Sedar after the closing of financing ? This investor is in for $ 20 M with the intent of $ 80 M additional, this is a lot of money, this investor is obviously close to Mene and would not invest so much without doing his due diligence.
Comments ?

Thanks
