Looking for a home run in the golds

Rodney Stevens, Investment Advisor, Wolverton Securities Ltd. in Vancouver comments on Inca One operating in Peru

“The TSX Venture Exchange has been in freefall. So far, we haven’t seen signs of it bottoming yet. But I believe that we are near a low. It should be turning in the next little while.”

Focus: Looking for early stage gold exploration projects with home run potential.
Can you give us your perspective on what is happening in the market right now?
“The TSX Venture Exchange has been in freefall. So far, we haven’t seen signs of it bottoming yet.  But I believe that we are near a low. It should be turning in the next little while.”
How do you think this will play out over the next few months?
“The next few months should still be weak. We are going through the summer doldrums and for the market to turn we are likely going to require more stimulus from Europe and the U.S.  I think that will inevitably happen. But it’s hard to say when.”
Can you give us some names that you think have upside potential?
