Q: Morning Peter and team,

I am thinking of getting some exposure to gold and would appreciate your suggestion as to how I should go about it, e.g. mining companies, stocks, etfs, physical gold, etc?

Thanks,
H

Q: What is your take on the very short news story today about FM withdrawing its arbitration against the gov’t of Panama? Does this point to optimism for a favourable settlement, or is it more of capitulation to negative prospects for recovering anything much for its loss? Does it still have any other arbitrations for its claims? Thanks

Q: Can you explain how buying this ETR in US dollars (MNT.U) works when it is traded on a Canadian stock exchange in comparison to MNT? Am I actually getting US dollars when I sell it or are these converted to C$ with a corresponding hit because of exchange rate? Is it better to buy MNT or MNT.U? Thank you.

Q: Hello. Gold and gold stocks have had a nice run. Do you think this move still has legs? If so, would CGL and XGD be good investments or are there others which you prefer?

Thank you.

Q: Just few more covered call gold ETF questions and I promise to stop flogging this horse and make a decision ..... Of the five ETF's 5i recommended { AMAX, CGXF,BASE,GLCC,GDXY } Could 5i give me the return, unit price gain/loss plus dividends for each ETF as a percentage ? .... As both AMAX and GDXY have only been around a year just go back for that period of time for each one. This will be long enough for me to assess as I am looking for gold volatility pre and post Trump's election.....

I notice all have an upward trend except GDXY. Could 5i speculate on the reason why ? Of course the question is does that 32.5% dividend more than make up for it ? I should be able to see that by your evaluations of returns for the other ETF's in comparison ......

And finally, hypothetically, if 5i were forced to choose one or two of these to " hide " in while assessing just exactly how bad Trump is going to make things for Canada . Which would be your two favorites, first and second, and why ? ...... Thanks for your terrific service ..... Garth .....

Q: Copper seems like it's going to be in high demand. There's also tariff possibilities. If you had a choice to invest in copper today with a 2-3 year horizon, would you do it? Any suggestions on growth companies? Thanks.

Q: Just a little more clarification on my question on GDXY . First what is a " synthetic call/write strategy " ? I suspect understanding that will help me understand the very large 32.5% yield ......And second the only GDX gold stock I can find is a 5 cent stock Goldex Resources Corporation ? Which I don't find encouraging for a purchase of GDXY . Could you elaborate on the relationship ? ..... Or if I have the wrong company point me in the direction of the right stock symbol ? .... Thanks again for your terrific service ......
