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: Good morning 5i,

Looking to add two names to my portfolio, with the only criteria being a combination of balance and growth, and with a long-term horizon. Currently thinking of GSY and REAL/LSPD, are you good with these at today’s levels? Listed some others I’m interested in too. Any other of your favourites you’d consider (already own KXS, WELL). Thanks.

Q: I have been looking to take a position in Lightspeed for some time now, when it was in the $24 range, but it went up too fast too soon. with the current 15% drop and the IPO coming up, would you suggest I buy now, wait until the pricing is announced or until the issue is completed? Do you expect much volatility particularly to the upside in the interim?
Regards
Rajiv

Q: Can I have your updated opinion on these 3 stocks please. Are they still all in debt with negative cash flow, what is there burn rate and how much cash do they have? I was thinking of letting these 3 go and moving into GTII for a small amount of exposure. How is the balance sheet of GTII?
Thank you

Q: I hold BIPC:US in my TFSA (TD-Waterhouse; US$ brokerage account). I am confused as to what dividend I can expect on Sep 30; the company website appears to indicate it will be US$0.485/share; however, the BIPC "profile"—as per the 5i website—indicates upcoming dividend of CA$0.6325. I’m not sure what to expect (of course, I am hoping dividend is paid in US$, otherwise I’ll need to later move the shares to the Canadian dollar side of the brokerage account, to avoid unnecessary currency exchange costs).
