Q: Hello Peter & Co,
Yamana Gold has lagged Goldcorp (5i equity) and the XGD basket partly because of its venture with Osisko; I'm thinking of buying it (for one seasonal cycle) purely on a valuation basis.
I'm not confortable enough with gold to make it a long term holding.
Your comments?
Thanks
Tony

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I read an article on Seeking Alpha today recommending a play on gold and silver via a closed-end fund called Central Fund of Canada (CEF). It is supposed to be trading at a 5% discount and that is meant to be unusual (but it happens from time to time).

Any time someone writes about "free" money I am suspicious. Do you have any comments about this investment alternative? The article is here: http://seekingalpha.com/article/2310905-how-to-get-a-big-discount-on-gold?ifp=0

Thanks again for your great service.

Michael

Q: Hi team,
With the recent turmoil in the Middle East,and inflation numbers above 2%,the price of GOLD has been acting better over the last three weeks.
Consequently I,ve noticed the volume doubling on SAS Goldfields shares and it's share price appreciating 20% over the last two weeks. Technically GOLD is seasonally strong in the summer, and my dilemma is knowing WHEN to sell .I am up 8% on SAS and keeping a very close eye .....what do you suggest?
Thanks a Million

Q: Hi team, I held on to 100 shares of OSK, but now I have 7 AEM, 26 YRI and 10 OR due to the deal, they are in an RSP account with a less than 1% weighting in each but they are amongst 14 other dividend paying stocks with a 4-8% weighting. I also hold 80 shares of G that I was hoping would take OSK. What would you suggest. Thanks, Nick

Q: LSG
Lakeshore Gold seems to have been a "tomorrow" company for a great many yesterdays but is now producing reasonable cashflow, repaying debt and is holding good future development sites. Has tomorrow finally come? Any suggestions on how to establish a share value?
