5 Top TSXV Stocks: Gold Stocks Rally

The S&P/TSX Venture Composite Index (INDEXTSI:JX) dropped again last week, losing 1.71 percent over the five-day period to finish the week with 761.98 points.

The decline comes in part of the upcoming US election as investors turn their attention to safe-haven assets.

The top five mining gainers for the week were:
