Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: As the demand for electric vehicles inevitably grows over the coming years the demand for certain metals will stretch the supply from current mines. Given how long it normally takes years to get new mines approved and operational I suspect that there are some mining companies with existing assets could be well placed to take advantage of this probable market gap. Do you have any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks.

Q: After many years I still remember when gold was a great investment until the day arrived and it was not. Also silver was hot (remember the Hunt brothers?) The memory lingers because I lost a few dollars in the process.
Since then I have stayed clear of precious metals however perhaps the time has arrived (late of course) when I should reconsider a small step back into the arena.
Do you believe FNV may have a chance of restoring by belief in the future (five years) of the precious metal market? In other words should I take a small position or wait for the next shoe to drop?
Thanks

Q: When I graph the performance of these four gold miners over a period of three months, six months or year to date, KNT and FVI appear to have performed best. Can I trust Mr Market here? I hold shares in each of these two companies. Should I add to these positions or sell them in preference to MMX and WDO?
If you do not trust what the market seems to be telling me here please explain why.

Q: Retired dividend-income investor. Sitting on 6% cash. Looking to add some gold exposure. Do you think there is more upside to gold over the next couple of years? For the most part, I am a buy-and-hold investor, not a short term trader. Is there an ETF that a) pays a dividend > 3% and b) that contains both the miners and bullion? If not, what would be the best route to get sector exposure, leaning to the conservative side? Thanks...Steve

Q: Looking to add to my gold exposure (currently a small position in GLD). Can you let me know your preferred choice for a:
1. Gold ETF
2. Gold Miner/Producer
3. Gold explorer
4. Gold - high risk/high opportunity
5. Gold...? something alternative here, perhaps like GoldMoney

Thx.

Q: Midas just got their DEIS for their project in Idaho. They will probably get the final EIS in Q2 of next year, and start building the mine late 2021, assuming all goes as planned.
I'm up about 140% on the stock, and wondering if it is worth holding on to during all the permitting that will go on for the next year or more. I don't really see the share price doing much during that time.
Any thoughts, advice? Thanks
