Q: I bought some FNV last year and exited my position in April 2020 (too soon but still a double). I am thinking of returning to gold as I now have none (and feel uncomfortable with none).
a) Is this a decent time to return?
b) Should I return to FNV now that it has dropped back from its high?
c) Or should I choose one of GLD:US, IAU:US or SGOL:US and if so which do you prefer?
Thanks for your help.

Q: I am biased to see gold continue to move higher as we get closer to the US election. Particularly if Biden wins, since Trump will no doubt contest the results and pretty much do all he can to remain in the White House beyond Inauguration Day, resulting in heightened volatility.

At the same time, I could also see a scenario where the US$ rallies on the back of a FTQ bid amid this volatility.

So does one add to gold exposure with the view that the US$ rallies in the coming months? Or do you think any potential uptick in gold will be mitigated by a stronger US$?

And if you were to be relatively bullish on gold, would you buy, say, XGD, or would you add a company like FNV or ABX?

Thanks in advance.

Q: If one anticipates a significant pick up in inflation due to all the extra costs related to Covid-19, what are the sectors likely to benefit? Could you give 3-4 suggestions for Can and US companies which would be expected to do well in that scenario? Thank you for your great insights?

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 any idea why GLD and FNV are struggling in this market. They are both lagging the gold sector in general and are well off their 52 wk highs. Looks like I got the sector right but picked the wrong stocks would you sell them both and replace the with something else please recommend alternatives Thanks
