Q: Do you feel every portfolio should have at least one Gold Company?

What is the importance of owning a gold company? The long term track record of most Gold Mining companies does't look that compelling. I know that you have mentioned it as a hedge/protection, but even in 2009 Gold companies went down with the rest of the market.

Is just to ensure proper diversification?

When I look at AEM compared to FNV I like the past performance of FNV, but does it provide the same diversification

If it is your recommendation to have as part of any well constructed portfolio, what percentage should be with a Gold company. Just one full position?

Thanks as always.

Q: Hi - I am looking for a mid-cap gold stock to buy. Do you have any recommendations? I'm looking for a company with good management that has "some skin in the game". I also prefer a decent balance sheet, and is a possible future take-out target in the future. Thanks.

Q: Peter and Team,
Many thanks for your great service. Despite a full position in GUD I have an order in for more at $8 if it gets back there and bounces. To each his own but I like the idea of a cash-like holding that has a healthy upside potential with a big cash footing; especially one that isn't wasteful and one you support. Do any other companies have similar situations ? Paul

Q: In my portfolio I am overweight in Canadian Financial (Banks) and the US tech stocks, but I have no exposure to the Materials sector (except gold.) Can you please recommend me a few materials and mining stocks (in the order or your preference) or do you suggest an ETF.
Based on the recent weakness of the sector is this the right time to get in this sector? or do you suggest that you should stay away
