Q: Can you recommend any stocks that would benefit if China invaded Taiwan? I was thinking along the line of military, resources, submarine, sea technology stocks, etc. But if you know of any other ones that would be great too. Thanks.

Q: Gold and silver stocks have not moved with the same velocity as the commodity itself and now appear to offer some of the best value in market. Given the current situation can you recommend 3 or 4 gold or silver stocks that have an operating mine, in a safe jurisdiction and have reasonable "all in sustaining costs" AISC

Q: Franco Nevada is my only gold holding. Down ~15% on it. I want to add more to gold, should i add more to FNV or is there a better gold stock you like more? How is FNV priced in terms of P/E or whatever ratios you think are most relevant and how does that look vs peers?

I was thinking just the actual gold ETF, but i think a miner would have more torque iuf gold prices rise. I like the royalty model

Q: My allotment to precious metals is now down below my target of 5%. I need to add to bring up this part of my portfolio. I have a full position in AEM. Which of PAAS, SSRM, BTO, KRR or FNV should I add to at this time? Or do you have another precious metal company that would be appropriate at this time?

Q: Considering taking a position (up to 2%) in a dividend paying oil/gas company, and looking at FRU or WCP. Could I get your comments on the royalty structure vs a producer, as well as a comparison of the metrics such as payout percentage, debt, guidance, etc. Do you have a preference, and would you even consider adding an oil producer at this time. I have some ETFs with small positions in some oil companies, but no direct holdings of my own.
Thank-you

Q: I want to get into gold stocks and have always preferred Franco Nevada in the past. Should I look at buying some of it now, and what other companies would you recommend to complement it if I do? (In the same sector) Thanks

Q: I saw this comment today.

We expect that its royalty interest will be upheld in international arbitration. Although not imminent, this royalty which accounts for 22 per cent of its net asset value represents excellent upside optionality once Franco Nevada and operator First Quantum Minerals has its day in court.

What are your thoughts on:
1) Has the market basically written off this royalty stream in FNV's stock price at this point?
2) Great buy at this point given bonus upside down the road when things hopefully resolve and they recover something.
3) Would you sell WPM to buy FNV given this? Though WPM has higher potential returns given its silver exposure i think.

Q: Hi 5i,
I hold above stocks 2%, 1.5% and less than 0,5% of fortitude. Thinking of selling Fortitude to add to my now decreased position in FNV. Which do you think has more upside? If even, given recent FNV decline and lower risk, I might go for more FNV as I am becoming more conservative. I am OK to take some higher risk given Fortitude is a small position.
Your thoughts please on FNV and Fortitude and suggested strategy.
Thank you.

Q: Gold above $2050 would be bullish I think. Wondering what your thoughts are on this asset category at this time and looking for your top two large and small cap picks that would have torque to a higher gold price.

Also a comment on the dividend sustainability of B2 would be appreciated.

Thanks folks

Q: Good morning,

Do you think it may be prudent to swap out Franco Nevada shares now (considering the growing list of political/legal headwinds) for something else?

If so can you give a Canadian suggestion for gold exposure, along with two other picks (any sector) for a possible year-end through January bounce (CAD or US)? Thanks. Brad

Q: Hello Peter,
I've held FNV shares as my gold allocation since Q4/2018. Currently, I have a "reasonable" return of 8% per annum including dividends. With all the legal drama FNV is realizing in Panama, is it wise to sell FNV and buy another streamer or hold FNV for the long run?

Sitting with a taxable cap gain of 28%. Seems like the impact of FM is going to be significant for future earnings. Please advise your wisdom. Thank you.
