Q: Should I continue holding Harmony Gold Mining or take my profit and run? I know that it has more risk the AEG or GLD, but it has a good trend right now.

Should I let it run, or take some profits? You have said before that Gold is insurance, and now that insurance is paying off. When is the right time to cash in, and should profits be put back into gold?

HMY is currently 4.5% of my overall portfolio, and that and Alacer (1%) are my only two gold holdings.

Q: Hi guys as always thank you for all you do for us. I am putting together a Gold Silver portfolio 5 or 6 positions max cash in $50K.1Streaming firm if 5 and 2 if I go 6 positions for a minimum 36 months maybe 48 months. Gold firms I'm considering AEM,DGC RIC,RGL, AR. Timing is not great. I can go in over next couple of months or do I go whole hog on a pull back day or two? Any further recommendations?
Thanks
David

Q: Gold represents a small portion of my portfolio with only 2 holdings – Anglo Eagle Mines (AEM) and Yamana (YRI). I just sold my Yamana to take advantage of the recent bull run in gold which even 5i has stated is getting a bit “long in the tooth”. AEM seems to be your favorite which I plan to keep, but I was looking to swap Yamana for a better name that’s higher on your list either now or on a future dip. What would be your second pick after AEM in the gold space? I’m looking for a mid or large cap that has reasonable leverage to gold but still a strong balance sheet to reasonably withstand any future drops in the price of gold. As an aside, for a person holding only two names would you recommend that one of them be an ETF for instant diversification? or even a bullion fund if perhaps the recent run has put the rise in the miners too far above the bullion price?
