Q: Hello 5i team,

For our TFSA, we hold AEM & ABX and RRSP - FCX long term over 5 years or so. We try to keep to 3 names max and keep trimming them down.

I appreciate having your thought on switching to PAAS / WPM or sell them all off and switching to energy/ energy services like OXY, BEPC, CNQ. We already have Enbridge, TC & Pembina in our portfolio for income. Thank you

Q: Hello Team,

Can I get your thoughts on Gold over the next few years. I currently have about 3% of my portfolio in Gold stocks and thinking about increasing to 5-6%.

Where do you think the market in general will price Gold stocks? Do you see an "AI" type frenzy at all coming with gold prices heading towards $3000. I feel most companies are under priced/valued.

Can you give me your top 3-4 high growth gold stocks.

Thanks.

Q: Hello 5i team,
I wanted to add to my WPM holding and was wondering if it is still ok to add at these levels?

For MG, it has taken a hit in the past year and wanted to initiate a position at this level, are you still comfortable with Magna or is there something more fundamental going on.

Thank You,
Anrew

Q: Hello 5i team,
With the addition of WPM to the balanced portfolio, are you still going to be holding onto AEM having 2 pure material stocks at once?

Both are at or near all time highs.

Thanks,
Andrew

Q: Hello 5i, I've held FNV at 2% weight for the past 6 years as a hedge and precious metal/materials component. It's total return is close to 8%. Shares are in a non-registered account so modest cap gain if I sell. My question is should I hold or sell for WPM , AEM or GFI. All three have materially outperformed FNV past 5 years. Based on your outlook, does it make any sense to trade FNV for WPM or others or just hold in the anticipation of FNV sorting out their issues in Panama, etc? Thanks for all you do.

Q: Gold is at new highs but based on a review of recent answers, gold miners are not seeing share price appreciation because of the costs of production and other factors.
Are there any gold stocks that you think are worth buying?

Q: Hi, can you recommend 2 US and 2 CDN metal stocks for a long term hold to total a 8% total position in metals? I'm ok with medium risk. If you have other choices besides the ones I've mentioned (CMC, FCX,CCO, RS, STLD, AMR) please suggest them.

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: Good morning. Reviewing some of my holdings and thinking I don’t really need to hold these three. Down marginally on all 3. What’s your opinion?

Thanks Steve

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: As the FED has signaled up to 3 rate cuts in 2024 do you recommend having 5% exposure to gold stocks? If so, would companies KGC, GOLD, or OR be ones to add to a portfolio? Thanks!

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: Could you tell from which metals (gold, silver, copper, others) these royalties’stocks or ETF are getting their revenues/profits. And in what proportion? If possible, from which countries?
I own OR (gold), SSL (gold only?). Also these stocks: MAG (silver only?), FVI (silver&gold?).
I hope the question is not too complicated. Thanks a lot.

Q: Hello, I think I made a mistake in buying WFG. It has not done well and is at the mercy of lumber prices and the government (I think?). I used to own SJ and it may have more control of it's destiny. Your thoughts please. Frankly I'm starting to think I don't need materials as there is too many, copper, lumber, steel, gold..... I also own AEM in the sector. How do I choose? I prefer a safer less cyclical stock if that's possible in this sector. Any advise would be appreciated. Thank you.
