Q: I considered a switch from DGC to KL when the US dollar started an upward trend. I did not make the move figuring earnings are earnings and we should convert earnings to Can dollar for an apples to apples comparison. Of course in hindsight I should have made the switch.
Was my viewpoint on the currency wrong in this case or was there another reason for the price moves in these two stocks? Could you talk a little more about how USD/CAN fluctuations might change investors viewpoints on our Canadian mining stocks and which companies can benefit or get dinged?

Q: Hi 5i, what's your thought on DGC? Is the worst over now? Google finance has one article said Detour gold stock has high short interest, how to check that is it true. I didn't sell it because A lot of analyst said gold price will go up to $1400 this year, gold price was up $1357 a few weeks ago but DGC was at 16 or 17 Dollar. Yesterday gold price was up 15 dollar but DGC stock was down,any hope for this company turning around? Is all articles on Google finance are true ? I bought in at $20.50.If sold DGC, would you recommend sell and buy small cap gold stock such as BTO or ELD replaced or hold? thank you.

Q: Hello Peter,
Facebook announced great results;however, the stock hardly moved. Any comments? For gold, would you consider kirkland lake and detour as long term holds in that sector. Also, constellation software after the article in the globe has taken a step back. Is it good time to add more? Thanks very much

Q: I have noticed DGC doesn't go up with gold price. It went down a lot when gold price falls.
Prices range from low $17 to high $18. I bought in around $20, should I wait until it goes up to that price or sell it now with a loss and buy small caps stocks: Tog, BTE, SPE,Gte,Ivn, Kdx and Nsu.
I also want to switch from Wrn to CS or ROG.
Would like your thought about these.
Don Vialoux said gold seasonal strength until first week of March?
Please remove private in my previous question.
Thank so much.

Q: As a retired investor, I have a small defensive position in Goldcorp (which is underwater)and was wondering if Detour Gold would offer better upside potential going forward. I could use the capital loss to reduce this year's capital gains.
Also I'd like to know if you feel gold has lost its defensive nature and is no longer a "must own" in portfolios. Thank you
