Q: hi folks:

i have done well with IVN over the years, yet i admit i am losing my nerve.......

understanding that they likely do have the 'best and most profitable' copper mine in the world, the 'potential' drc political situation worries me more than any future profit potential

keeping in mind that everywhere has some political risk, what would your recommendations be for continued copper exposure ?

(i own a full position in CS as well)

thanks once again; always appreciate your advice and analysis

Q: I am interested in placing an investment in the near future in a base metal producer; preferring a copper focus. I'd appreciate your take first, on the timing of such an investment given where we are in the economic cycle and second, your selection of a "top 3" to invest in. Thanks for the insights.

Q: Who should i focus on for copper. Manageable debt to survive any economic down turn, mining in stable political countries, low cost production, reasonable life of current mine(s) for future supply. Trading on the Canadian exchanges With EV etc I expect supply of copper will be another metal that will be in short supply but will have its ups and downs in the short term.

Q: I'm thinking of taking some positions in base metals companies. I'm especially interested in copper plays as it seems to be needed to support the drive to electrification. Do you think this is and opportune time to initate positions? In any case, I would appreciate it if you would share some of your favorite companies in this sector and it would help if you would present them in order of most upside to least going forward. I'm open to metals. other than copper as well.
