Q: 3 questions regarding gold:
(1) I currently hold XGD for the long term, with a dividend of about 0.68%. Would I be better to hold 2-3 really good gold mining stocks, in a non-reg acct, like KL (div 1.99%; no debt) and AEM (div 1.97%). Or with this long-term investment, stay diversified with XGD? I care more about stability, value and some growth, not the dividend.
(2) Should I also hold some physical gold in an ETF like PHYS? If so, what percentage of gold holdings would you have in gold producers vs physical gold?
(3) A friend of mine holds some physical gold at home. Comments on this appreciated.
Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i,
Knowing very little about the machinations of the gold market..I bought into WDO back in Aug 2020 close to YTD highs. Currently down close to 40%.

I have read your previous Jan 25 response so realize you see no reason to change course despite the current negative sentiment and analysts downgrades.

My questions is in what time frame and under what conditions would you expect WDO to make a recovery to previous levels or at least reverse current trend? 1 year , 2 years ect..... your best guess is appreciated.;)

Thx
Jim

Q: In the past year, INK Reports show company officer and director insider net selling activity levels for AEM, AGI, PGM and WDO are significantly higher than levels for KL and MMX. I realize there are many reasons why insiders might decide to sell, but is it a red flag for investors when net selling activity reaches the levels exhibited by company officers and directors of AEM, AGI, PGM and WDO?

Q: Asking for an update on this stock since the last time I've asked back on May 13th/ 2020.(posted down below). It's finally making a move and have you learned anything new about the company? Why it's moving? Thoughts on the Uranium market? And thoughts on the management? and any other metrics such as insider ownership. Thanks.

Wish I put more money in it. I'm up 66% :)

"Q: My question do you have any thoughts on this company and the Uranium market going forward? and if you are favouring the Uranium market going forward are their any companies that interest you?

Q: Is grsl performing as the level you thought they would over the last year or so? have your expectations increased, fallen off or remained the same?
are they participating in recent ( last few days) silver run-up?
I purchased grsl a few months ago for my "speculative" investment portfolio!
can I get a quick up date on their current expectations?
