Q: Hi Team,

In a question/answer from earlier today you mentioned an allocation in metals between bullion and stock (clarifying a response from yesterday). You do mention gold specifically today in part of your answer. Are your sentiments the same for silver (i.e., would you be able to suggest an asset allocation between silver and gold bullion and silver and gold stocks)? Or do you see silver and gold as very different commodities (recognizing silver has more industrial use as well as being a store of value)? Is there any point in holding both in bullion and/or stocks? Thanks again.

Q: Peter and Team,

This is a question re: on of your reponses yesterday regarding how much of assets should be in Precious Metals. In your response, you stated that you were comfortable with up to 10%.

I wasn't clear if that 10% included Gold and Silver Bullion and Stocks or just the metals (i.e. the stocks would be a incremental percentage over the metals which, I agree, should be viewed as insurance).

Q: Hi Team,

With a possible recovery in gold and silver bullion and stocks do you have any guidance on what percentage of an investment portfolio and of total net worth "should" be invested in this sector? Some suggest 5 or 10 percent of assets. do you agree? Thank you.

Q: Hi Peter and the 5i Team,

Last night Michael Bowman was on BNN. He suggested holding gold bullion e.g. the CGL ETF instead of holding a gold miner such as Goldcorp. Yet when I plot returns over various time periods, G has done better than CGL and other gold bullion ETFs. I know that 5i recommends holding some gold in every portfolio (specifically Goldcorp) and presently I don't own any gold at all. What is your take on Mr. Bowman's gold strategies? If a portfolio is approximately 300K, would a 5% gold weighting be too much because of the volatility? Thanks for providing such a terrific service.

Q: Hello 5i
Any ideas on SGC.V Sunridge Gold this is Grandichs take on things?

Sunridge Gold- I’ve heard from more than one pass reliable source that the Chinese have greatly increased their interest in mining worldwide and in particular Eritrea. When pressed, SGC management clams up except to say numerous companies worldwide are looking at them and have signed confidentially agreements. I’m extremely bias but I think this is one junior to own ASAP for speculators.
