Q: Could 5i speculate on the current volatility of gold ? I'm not buying the " Investors are in a sell everything mood " argument ..... Investors are selling Mr Market because of the tariffs and gold " should " be exactly where they head to . The price of gold is unaffected by tariffs ......

As well as speculating on the reason " why " could 5i speculate on how long you feel the volatility in gold will continue? ..... I tend to think gold should continue it's upward rise once investors figure out that it is unaffected by tariffs and look for a safer haven ....... But I trust 5i's analysis more than my own ..... Thanks for your terrific service .... Garth

Q: I had gotten more heavily into gold of late in hopes this would help provide more stability in the upcoming mess. Evidently I was wrong, as gold has been tumbling pretty heavily the last couple of days. Could you please explain where my thinking went wrong and whether you see gold stabilizing soon?

Q: Hi,

I am surprised that gold is not holding up in this meltdown. Is the market at the point of “sell anything” to raise cash/cover margins?

Thanks, Michael

Q: What is happening with Canadian Gold Corp (CGC.VN) lately... up 65% this month? I've held it for years now at a loss and am wondering whether to quit while I'm ahead or hang on to it. (It was a bit of good news amidst this overall mess.)

Q: What is your take on the very short news story today about FM withdrawing its arbitration against the gov’t of Panama? Does this point to optimism for a favourable settlement, or is it more of capitulation to negative prospects for recovering anything much for its loss? Does it still have any other arbitrations for its claims? Thanks

Am I actually getting US dollars when I sell it or are these converted to C$ with a corresponding hit because of exchange rate? Is it better to buy MNT or MNT.U? Thank you.
