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

Q: I owned CXB and it more than doubled. Then I wanted something a little more established so I put the money into KL. It started off well but then I ended up down 20%. When it merged with AEM, I sold KL for the tax loss and bought AEM thinking the combined company looked like a really good gold company. Now I am down 4% on AEM. This now amounts to less than 1% of my overall portfolio. Gold is supposed to be a stabilizer in a portfolio but I have lost faith in it. I certainly don't want to buy more. Do you think someone should have a little gold in their portfolio?

With a supposed graphite supply shortage to the US in 2022, is there opportunity for Canadian mines to increase graphite mining and production? If so, what mines or producers could be a short or medium-term investment opportunity?

Q: I would like to get your opinion of Lundin's recent acquisition of Josemaria Resources in Argentina. The market sure doesn't like the deal, at least for today. Do you think the sell-off is a good opportunity to establish a position in Lundin given the company's strong fundamentals or would you wait awhile to let the market digest the news?

Thanks and Merry Christmas to the entire 5i office.

Q: SPOT has engaged in several acquisitions over the past year. The company seems to be diversified across it's holdings in onsite tech based mineral exploration and SAAS, potential royalties and and more recently investment services. How would you categorize SPOT? and evaluate results from such diverse number of holdings and acquisitions? Considering the recent plateau is now a good stage to grow my holdings?

Q: Hello Peter,
For the potential surge in EV stocks in 2022, i am considering investing in rare earths and am trying to decide between Neo Performance in Canada or MP materials in US. Which one do you feel is better for longer term in the EV sector? Also, is there any news on Nuvei for big increase in share price today or is it simply catching up after the short seller report? Thanks very much.
