Q: Hi Peter and team and all the best of the season to you...
What do you think of Rio Tinto? I have been holding it for some time and am wondering whether I should continue or if I should bail out since it hasn't performed well.

Regards, Joanne

I plan to hold this stock forever if I have to.

Q: Hi there, thanks for the great service this year!

I've been writing down names of gold and silver companies over the last few months when they have been mentioned - thinking that I would look at them at year end for possibly a good time to purchase a couple. However, I've lost track of why some of them were on the list.

Could you please pick 2-3 that you would consider the best choices, or alternatively the ones you would stay away from. Thanks!

Q: Hello, I'm astounded by Ford Equity Research's recent sell recommendations on many of my junior Canadian mining stocks ( they have sells on NGD,HBM,DML,CS,PG,AUG for example). I checked with their website and they apparently provide independent unbiased research on approximately 4000 companies from their US headquarters. How much weight do you think a person should place on their recommendations on Canadian junior mining stocks?

Q: Regarding Sherritt (S-T), with it sitting at about $3 dollars, when does this company go from being a value stock to a value trap or is this the case already?
I know that this is a sum of the parts company, how does one play this, or should I give up and bail out?

Q: I am in Goldcorp at about $26.50 and willing to be patient. Does it appear weaker to you recently, and do you attribute this weakness vs AEM (for example) due to this land claim issue in Mexico? Buy more, sell, hold at this point.

Q: I would value your opinion on Torex Gold (TXG on the TSX). Given the present climate of gold, I do realize this will be a speculative position, but would nonetheless appreciate knowing if the fundamentals of this company will carry it through to recovery in the gold sector. How would this compare to Mandalay Resources (MND on the TSX), fundamentally speaking? In terms of geo-political risk, is Mexico a better/worse environment than Chile, in which to invest?

I am interested in deploying some speculative cash into this sector and am trying to choose between Mandalay and Torex. Any preferences? Or both?

Thank you, as ever, for this wonderful service!

Q: Hi Peter and Team
I really liked your recent suggestion about 2 large caps and a junior in the gold sector...realizing of course that the whole sector is totally out of favor. What is your assessment of the merits between MND and ASR? What would be your preference ...which one is best to survive until gold shines again or at least returns between 1350-1400?
I thank you in advance for your time and effort!
