Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I am looking at Gold mining companies and royalty companies. My preference is low to no debt with good management. My preferred choices right now are KL, LUN, WPM, and FNV, all of which are priced high right now. I own mostly NGT, but I'm not sure about them. I'm having a hard time selling NGT, priced 'OK,' to buy higher priced companies. My question is:

What are your preferred gold companies with no/low debt and good management?
Is NGT a slow but safer company, or should I move on to the others?

Q: Hi 5i
Recently sept 17/2019 NMX announced a court application for discharge of security securing $350M senior secured bonds...later sept 25/2019 they announced that they had received notice from Nordic Trustee AS regarding the $350M senior secured bonds and the passing of a bond holder resolution to refrain from the bond prepayment. Could you briefly explain what all this means and is this a negative for the stock or not? Does this affect the hopefully eventual completion/financing of the project?
Thx as usual for your help.

Q: I know that this company is probably out of your wheelhouse but do you have any thoughts on it?

Q: A gem of an answer to Brad's excellent question on Gold on September 25th.

Your usual suspects made the list with FNV/AEM pairing!

What would be your favourite pair in the small/mid cap Gold sector. (Low or no debt, Good growth potential, stand to benefit from the price increase in Gold, good momentum etc.,
Up to 10% means 10,000 per 100,000 dollars, 20 k per 200 k and such, no? Will need a small Gold portfolio with mixture of Large/mid and small caps, or just stick to large players like FNV,AEM,KL,NGT?

Q: I am going to add Gold to my portfolio and am looking for your advice. I really like the Franco-Nevada model being that they have royalties and do not own mines, but it seems quite expensive? Thoughts on evaluations etc ? Depending on your thoughts I would like to add FNV and an actual gold miner. The ones I have listed have a larger market cap as I am not interested in too small of gold miners.

With all the things going on in the world right now, how concerned are you of a recession in the US that will drag Canada into it? The flags I am concerned about right now are: 10yr bull market, US balance sheet issues, repos, inverted yield curve, Fed policy (decreasing interest rates), trade war, global slowing. A lot of other countries hold US paper........ It makes you wonder how much more debt the US can endure and maintain a strong dollar.

We all know that there is going to be a correction at some point in the future....but something to me feels different about what is coming. Maybe I am just a paranoid investor...I have to quit watching the prepper shows!

Besides gold what is the best way to protect ourselves in the event that the US has a financial crisis that affects their dollar?
