Q: Hi, I am looking to sell my SVM shares to take a tax loss. However, with the price of silver down and a potential bounce that may occur soon, could you recommend a couple alternatives I could buy now to take advantage of any bounce that occurs in the precious metals? I already own AEM and Goldcorp on the gold side. How does First Majestic compare with SVM, besides it being triple the market cap, would it be a suitable replacement? Any better options that may offer more torque in a bounce? Thanks.

Q: Hello. On Nov. 24, your answer to Steven regarding PHYS and GLD was “but if you want truly physical bullion representation, for crisis insurance purposes, there are better options.”

Would you please elaborate regarding what “better options” an individual investor should consider.

Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i. Just a comment, further to your December 8th answer to Paul’s question on opposite direction same-day moves exhibited by WPM and precious metals prices. In addition to the points you made, it is probably worth considering that the value in the market of either a royalty streaming company or a metals producer is more tied to available futures contracts than to the present day's spot price for the metal. It makes sense to value a producer by the expectations for the entire period of time it will be producing. Generally what people see quoted is either spot or a futures price for a single delivery date, rather than something that extends out over the range of the futures contracts for the next several years. As futures pricing can shift relative to spot, and different futures dates’ pricing can shift relative to each other, it is not only possible that individual companies will move opposite to a commodity quote on a given day, it is almost certain to occur fairly frequently.

Q: what is your short and long outlook for gold and the canadian dollar?
i presently have some u.s. cash and was considering an investment in gold (specifically in Kinross U.S.) both for a positive return and portfolio insurance.
I believe that when gold goes up the u.s. dollar usually goes down...
am i correct in that assumption?
appreciate your comments on the above strategy...

p.s. - if you have an alternative strategy it would be appreciated!

Q: Hi Peter,

I've been watching this closely since it was first recommended. It's now back to the low $4's and is looking quite attractive.

Before I pull the trigger and jump in, can you remind me of the positive attributes and potential long term earnings potential? If you were to give me a best 3-5 year price target 'guesstimate' assuming things work out with the company, what might that look like?
