Q: Hello Team
I have been reading a few different newsletters now that are recommending to start accumulating in the gold sector and lightening up on equities and bonds. These are the same people that predicted oil would be at 40.00. Some of the reasons they are stating this has to do with that economic condition of Japan and europe. Lack of QE from the US. Downturn in commodities and now the China effect. What are you thoughts/opinions on gold sector and the accumulation of gold stocks/etf or bullion?

thanks

Q: Hi, my holdings in basic materials is presently below my target of 5% for the group (Stella Jones, Goldcorp and First Quantum). I was thinking of purchasing more First Quantum hoping to take part in the eventual recovery in this sector. Just curious of your thoughts. What is the likelyhood that FM will not survive? Are they holding too much debt? Would you recommend a different move? Thanks. Mario.

Q: I was stupid enough to hold onto FM after you removed it from your model portfolio and now sitting at 55% loss that grows every day. It currently represents less than 1% of my portfolio, so I may eventually sell for tax loss. Yet, I don't understand why we got such a quick decline in just a few months... China worries and power concerns cannot explain such a drop, especially, as you confirmed in the answer to another question, for the stock that has 20 Buy recommendations and only 1 Sell recommendation. Something is very strange going on there and that's why I am hesitant to sell... Do you expect a recovery within 3 years? Do you see any bottom for the stock price? How bad is the company's debt situation?

Please give me your current evaluation of PAA. How is there balance sheet,management and assets? They are at a multi year low and this quarter may depress it further.Do you think we are close to a bottom? Any hope for silver recovering in the next year or two? Will PAA be a sector survivor?
Thanks for your insights as always!
