Q: Hi team,
Why is the price of gold not reacting strongly if inflation seems to be brewing?In particular with B2gold set to produce close to a million ounces in 2018 would not it's stock price reacting more positively to the upside? What is your outlook for both ,gold and B2gold over the next 12 to 18 months? Is now the time to purchase BTO?
Many thanks,
Jean

Q: Hi there,
LIF has seen a nice little correction here - would you support jumping in here. I only own Methanex on the materials side so looking for another name? If not LIF, what would you recommend today.

Q: Do you feel every portfolio should have at least one Gold Company?

What is the importance of owning a gold company? The long term track record of most Gold Mining companies does't look that compelling. I know that you have mentioned it as a hedge/protection, but even in 2009 Gold companies went down with the rest of the market.

Is just to ensure proper diversification?

When I look at AEM compared to FNV I like the past performance of FNV, but does it provide the same diversification

If it is your recommendation to have as part of any well constructed portfolio, what percentage should be with a Gold company. Just one full position?

Thanks as always.

Q: hello 5i:
would the 2 companies above be 2 of your favourites in the pm space? I note that there hasn't been much interest in OSK (at least on the 5i question space) since earlier in 2017. Why would that be? Out of favour? Do you think these names will outperform XGD?
thanks
