Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: This has been quite weak lately, is there any reason in particular or is it cyclical? Is there another company that might be a good alternative?
Thank you

Q: Peter and Team:

I hold a portfolio that follows your BEPORT with a few of my own thrown in.
I hold 1/2 weights of XTC and AEM, and was thinking of topping them up with some added cash that I have.
Would you be comfortable adding to these for long term hold at this time. In particular I am concerned about XTC with U.S. sentiments.

Thanks

Phil

Q: Hi there. I'm heavily invested in financials,tech and industrials. So far so good. I don't have any defensive stocks such as gold and silver as I tend to be more of higher risk investors. What do you recommend as far as % of position in Gold/Silver sector? Do you recommend positions in this sector regardless of where the market is?

Q: I've owned and lost way too much money on Goldcorp over the years, only holding onto it to keep a balanced portfolio, but I should have sold this stock and bought another gold player a long time ago. Would Eagle Mines be a good replacement or what does 5I suggest as a replacement, with a moderate conservative profile and what kind of weighting should I hold for precious metals

Q: I am just about to set up my portfolio. I am following your balanced equity portfolio. Most will be put into TFSA. I have to select about 6 to go in non registered. Obviously these would be the ones I would expect lower returns. Which ones should I select? I plan to keep not touch these investments for 8 years.

Q: On July 15/16 you responded to a question on what would be some good gold stocks to buy at the prices that existed then. You suggested AEM, RIC, MND, BTO, FNV, SMF for a variety of reasons depending on the company. Would these still be your choices today considering the change in gold prices and other factors. If changes should be made do you have any new suggestions. Thanks.
