What got you talking yesterday

On Twitter it was all about gold. ASX small cap explorers are persevering with exploration and while prices have taken a fall in recent days, a rebound is predicted.

It was similarly about gold in our Facebook small and micro cap chat group – specifically Krakatoa Resources (ASX:KTA). If you’re not a member we’d love to have you join – which you can here.

These were the most tipped stocks (weekly) on Stocks in Play:
