Q: It looks like Gold has broken out of $3500 level and Gold equities, rising for 3-4 weeks straight, might be due for a consolidation soon. Do you agree ?

We have a small 1% weight in the sector through AEM and wish to increase our exposure. Have we already missed the boat ?

Would it be worthwhile to wait for a consolidation and or just start adding at current levels.

If you believe, there could be consolidation due in the near term, what levels, you think, AEM could trade ?

Thank You

Q: Good morning- I notice that in recent questions about gold companies, EQX is not amongst your favourites. I hold EQX and AEM. Would I be better off selling EQX and either adding to AEM or a different company? If so, which do you suggest? Many thanks

Q: Hi 5i Team,

Would 5i Research consider publishing a full company report and rating for Brookfield Corporation (BN)? I currently hold BN, but I find it challenging to fully understand its multi-layered business model and strategic direction. A comprehensive 5i-style report would be invaluable to investors like me, helping us make more informed decisions about this important Canadian company.

I have the same request for AEM.

Best regards,
Matt

Q: I am seeking your opinion on gold investments in light of recent announcements in China requiring insurance companies to hold 1% of assets in physical gold. Could this have a material impact on price of gold? already factored into price of gold? Would you consider AEM an attractive opportunity at these prices or have a more reasonably priced alternative? thanks

Q: Good morning,

I am underweight gold at the moment, and know that this needs to change for a whole host of reasons, particularly heading into what traditionally has been a volatile time of year. The problem is that when I look at price charts for both AEM and FNV I struggle to add at these lofty levels. Do you think initiating a 1-2% weight in total split evenly between these 2 names would be prudent in light of ongoing and expected future market volatility?

Thanks as always.

Q: You recently responded to a question suggesting investing in materials as ‘inflation protection’. I have zero exposure to the sector. I have 10% of my portfolio in IBIT in lieu of precious metals.

Would you consider bitcoin exposure as an effective alternative to materials for inflation protection?

Also, please offer your top 3 names in the materials sector, Canada or US, ranked if possible.

Thank you.

Q: Ross Healy, who typically does not make sensational statements lightly, spooked me yesterday during a podcast interview with Amber Kanwar. He sees tech stocks dropping 60% which will invariably pull other types of stocks down for the ride. He suggests moving to gold... could you suggest a couple gold stocks with strong balance sheets? A mix of large, mid and small caps would be great. Thanks!
