Regarding Teresa's question about copper earlier today, here's an article from the Financial Post that illustrates copper's role in the potential for an electric vehicle sales uptick expected by the author:

Q: Good Day All,

Wondering if you might have any input on the new issue- "NEO". I like the space they operate in, and they did have a successful past if I remember correctly; that said it has not traded well since the IPO.

Thanks

Q: Hi everyone.
I have several questions so please take as many credits as needed.
1. Can you recommend an ETF for Japan? Several experts have recommended diversifying out of NA and into Japan.
2. Do you foresee a relative shortage in copper supply in the near future? If so, can you recommend a natural resource company that would benefit from the increased copper demand.
3. Do you know of an American equivalent to BNN?

Q: I own some of the Sherritt Nov 15/2021 bonds. What are your current thoughts on the safety of this issue? I realize 2021 in a long time away in the world of base metals. ( I thought your answer to a question July 27,2016 was very informative. )

Thanks for a great 2017 and all the best in the new year to all the staff at 5-I.

Q: Hello 5i,

I know you have a bullish view of zinc and recommend TV (which I currently own) for exposure to the metal. I'm wondering if you also have a bullish view on copper?
If so, what would be your recommended strategy for exposure to this base metal? Would you recommend owning a company that is exposed to both metals, or two separate companies that focus on each metal?

Thanks again and Merry Christmas!

Q: I've just read a news release by Kirkland about a mine they own in Austr.
I have limited knowledge of all the tech. facts they quote but seem to remember other miners bragging about ore containing 8-10 grs/ton.
The #s given by KL seem outlandish by comparison.
Can you fill me in as to whether this is even believable and what course of action woulld be warranted considering I want to get involved in the gold sector.
Thank you for your great service. Harry.
