Investment Q&A

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

Q: What is your top choice for playing the gold sector? This will be my only exposure to precious metals.

What are your top 10 growth names (Canada or US) for a new investment with a minimum 5 year hold? I'm not concerned about sector diversity or weighting because we're well diversified in other, larger parts of our portfolio.

Thanks.

Q: Hi
If someone who already has a position in Gold and wants to add to their position from 2% to 10% AT THIS STAGE of Gold's cycle,
what would you suggest? 50/50 split between Junior Golds and Senior Golds (4% each) or asymmetrical buying of more Junior Golds than Senior producers? (Say 5% and 3 %)
Risk tolerance high.
Can add in any of my portfolios.
Question # 2: To one of my previous questions, you mentioned that Big boys moving the money around is 50% of the reason why the stock market is on a tear. (I am paraphrasing your words!)
When will these big boys take a liking for Gold? And how can one identify the smart money's movement into Gold?

Q: Hi,
Seems to be talk about gold hitting 1900.00 - do you think it is talk, or has possible legs? If it has legs what's the best instrument to invest in? ETF's or stock picking? Either way, would your preference be in US dollars or Canadian? I am wondering if gold does soar, whether or not it will help to drive the value of the US dollar down. So lots of questions - deduct points as you see fit & as always, thanks for your thoughts and suggestions!

Q: Hi group I believe that Tech + health + gold will be the leaders when we come out of recession. Can you give me a list of 2 ETFs for each sector along with 2 individual stocks you like for Canada + USA. Am also interested you take on my sectors that will lead the recovery and should I start picking away or wait ??? (I believe the market are vastly overbought and does not factor in the economic reality that the virus is going to do to the market. Please deduct credits at your discretion.

Q: Hi Peter
are you still comfortable with MMX Maverix Metals? It's price is about the same as when you put it into the growth portfolio, down about 25% from it's high.
I was thinking to purchase it or XGD.
This would be for a 2 year hold. XGD is going in the right direction so I am leaning toward it.
What is your opinion on these two stocks?
Thanks
Ron

Q: Hi 5i,

Thank you for the great work. Gold seems to be emerging as a key theme right now. Currently I have a full position in Franco-Nevada. Looking to add further exposure and wondering if you would:

1. Add to FNV
2. Add position in any miners you recommend
3. Add XGD

Thank you in advance!
