Q: I have exposure to gold in the above companies. I'd appreciate any comments you may have in regards to whether to dump or hold, and which gold companies may provide a good alternative at present. I'm thinking some consolidation might be a good idea (too many positions). Thanks.

Q: I am paying off my mortgage and had planned to sell my holdings in WPM to help do that....was just waitng until this month when the mortgage term ends....bang... WPM down around 20% in the past month...

Should I hold for a rebound ( I have other holdings I am thining out that can easily make up for it) or is it a lost cause the next 6-18 months. The plan is to ditch it eventually anyway but had not planned on a 20% drop. If just a short term cyclical blip would lean towards holding, if in your opinion it is a fundamental problem with the company I would just suck it up and use the loss to offset my gains from other sales in this tax year.

Q: Trimming the herd to pay off the mortgage. Any compelling reason not to sell the above names. I have a few others on the maybe trim list if you make a compelling case to keep any of the above. Balanced growth follower.

I am heavy financial ( thus ditching rbc and mfc), wjx is one of my dogs ( offsets some of my gain on financials) and rus- tpk -wpm have gone sideways so no gain-loss on them. Gets me out pretty cap gain neutral and cleans out a bit of dead weight not in your balanced portfolio

Q: Hi, I am looking to sell my SVM shares to take a tax loss. However, with the price of silver down and a potential bounce that may occur soon, could you recommend a couple alternatives I could buy now to take advantage of any bounce that occurs in the precious metals? I already own AEM and Goldcorp on the gold side. How does First Majestic compare with SVM, besides it being triple the market cap, would it be a suitable replacement? Any better options that may offer more torque in a bounce? Thanks.
