Pro small-cap investor Mark Zaret discusses his investment rationale for two junior gold stocks in his portfolio. He also shares timeless investing wisdom regarding how patience and discipline have yielded him long-term profits on the other side of extreme market volatility. Throughout the interview, Mark shares his approach to small cap speculating which has produced tremendous wealth for himself over the decades. Mark began investing in the early 1990’s and achieved a significant net worth by focusing on Canadian micro-cap companies, especially junior resource stocks. Success was achieved through a disciplined approach of investing primarily in early life-cycle companies with low market caps, high insider ownership, and executive boards with strong credentials. Mark is currently working at Spartan Fund Management as an analyst and strategist in the area of small and micro-cap investing.
