Q: I have been a precious metals bug for most of my investing life. It seems the sector is both fundamentally and technically undervalued and is due for an advance. But of course timing is the BIG thing here. The precious metal sector used to be 100% of my portfolio but because of the volatility I have learned to invest in other sectors. However, I am still waiting for the big spurt. How would you time this supposed advance and how would you recognize it?
Thanks for your superior service.

Q: It would appear that gold may have bottomed out. I already hold G and like it because, apart form the price of gold, it is well run, with sound business practices in place and attention to generating decent returns for investors. l am looking to add another gold stock and am looking for your guidance. I would like a company that, regardless if gold stays where it is now or drops a bit further, still looks okay on fundamentals (e.g. producing gold at a low cost per oz, & has good reserves), has lots of cash on hand, does not need to go to the capital markets for more financing, trades at a substantial discount to book value, would provide excellent upside if gold moves higher, and hopefully has mines in stable countries. Ross Healy, a guy I really respect, picked IMG the other day on BNN as a gold stock having substantial upside however I see their main operating mines are in West Africa (Burkina Faso, Suriname, Mail) which turned me off a bit in terms of stability.
Any comments on a pick would be appreciated. Love your service.

Q: Good morning,

I would like to add some gold to my portfolio, about 15k in holdings. There have been some positive results from rio alto and b2 gold of late, but my stomach aches when thinking of reinvesting in them given the losses suffered when gold imploded last year. Could you comment on the two, recommend a good alternative or ETF for gold exposure as a hedge against market capitulation, and lend comment to gold in 2014.

Thanks as always,

Eric

I welcome your insight!

Q: When I was still using the services of a broker/adviser, I was persuaded to buy some Teck Resources TCK.B when it was having a good run. It dropped considerably after that. I’m no longer using a broker/adviser and during the summer, I doubled down on this stock and bought at a good price. I am finally at a situation where I am breaking even and the shares represent 5% of our total Registered plans. We are retired and are looking forward 10-15 years max., but need some growth and income in the meantime. Should I hold on?

Q: Good morning. Re: OSK Osisko.
OSK at a $9 cost basis is my only gold stock.. It now appears likely that no other bidders will emerge - would you agree with selling OSK at current bid price and buying Goldcorp? (I hate gold stocks)
