Q: In the global economy that we live in is the printing of money by central banks really as inflationary as past experience would indicate? Since the value of a currency is measured relative to the other currencies of the world, including gold, then if everyone (Fed, BofJ, ECB)is printing money will it really drive the gold price higher relative to any one currency?
Sort of like, if your at a party and everyone is drinking, does anyone look drunk at midnight?
Thank you
Brian

Q: Hi Peter & 5i: A question about analysts’ coverage. I have read your previous answers about what to make of an analyst’s rating of an individual stock. Each weekday I receive an email from Analyst Ratings Network. I am not a paying subscriber, though they try to sell me more in-depth information from time to time. What I receive is just a daily update on analysts’ coverage divided into three categories: upgrades, downgrades, and new coverage. Usually it’s a quick delete but once in a while there is something interesting, if not exactly useful. Today there were listings indicating that Goldman Sachs Group Inc are initiating new coverage of a whole raft of precious metals stocks, including Barrick, Agnico, Yamana, Eldorado, Goldcorp, IAMGold, Kinross, Newmont, New Gold, PanAm Silver, Royal Gold, and Silver Wheaton: pretty much the whole sector, at least as far as Canadian companies that have a listing on a US exchange go. The initial ratings included buys, neutrals, and sells. So my question is: what if any significance would you read into a brokerage like Goldmans initiating coverage on an entire group like that within a relatively small and still quite beaten down sector? Thanks, as always!

Q: Peter, I have both physical gold and gold stock Goldcorp (G) where the ratio is about 3:1
I'd like to increase my gold holdings to bring the total to about 4% of my assets, for insurance.
Would you suggest more physical gold or more Goldcorp?

Q: Hi, I just became a 5i member and this is my first question. After firing my financial advisor, I have become a do-it-yourself investor and regularly surpass the returns of what my paid advisor used to obtain. I have kept a few of those positions, waiting for the right time to sell. Unfortunately, one is ARG. I bought at $1.72 and hold 1,900 shares in my RSP account. It trades around 40 cents now. Should I continue to hold and not crystallize my losses or sell? Thank you.
