Q: Hi Peter can you give me your thoughts on Centamin Egypt "CEE" based on the last events. Would it be worth averaging down at this point and hope for a recovery to try and recoup some loss. Thanks, Nick

Q: Peter,
Was hoping to get your comments on Kirkland Lake Gold. This is a company that seems to have a lot going for it but the stock has been sliding and today it got hammered. I don't really see anything to shake my confidence in the company other than typical project/operational type issues. Am I totally lost here or is thing getting hammered unreasonably? I'd imagine its getting hit by tax-loss selling too.

Q: Hi Peter,

What are your thoughts about NUS which is at an all time low? They have more cash then the current share price and are suffering from government interference. Is it worth buying here? Thanks

Q: hello 5i:
I've read the one question there was on DNG, in October. Wonder if anything has changed for your outlook (I realize this is a very short time lag, but.......). Here's what I have read about them:
As an ore processor alone, Dynacor is a great value play. It is currently trading at less than 0.5x sales, with a ROE of 36.01%, a current P/E of 6.67, and trade roughly at the net market value right now. This translates into a very efficient use of current assets that generate a return far superior to many other avenues in which a retail investor can invest. It's also a growth story - Dynacor has increased its daily ore processing capabilities to 220t of ore per day, and is self-financing the expansion of another processing facility. That translates into at least 50,000 ounces of gold processed for 2012 (revised up to 58,000 this month), with the new facility increasing expected production up to 100,000 ounces of gold for 2014. Its latest month saw over 6,000 ounces of gold and 14,000 ounces of silver processed, for sales of over $10 million. If monthly production is maintained or increased, Dynacor is trading at a mere 0.3x sales and an annual net profit closer to $0.28/share with four quarters at current operations, leaving Dynacor trading at a forward P/E of roughly 4.3. In other words, dirt cheap.
Very interested in this company, particularly since you say management is very good. Your opinion please.
Paul

Q: I would appreciate some clarification about amount of gold exposure. In your answer to a previous question about gold you suggested always having some gold as a sort of insurance and I would like to follow that advice. Your suggested amount for now (22/Nov/12) was 10% or 15%. Would that be a percent of total portfolio (i.e including fixed income) or only of the equity/growth portion?
If one already owns a senior gold company would it be more prudent to add some gold bullion using a mutual fund or ETF, or would you still suggest sticking with more gold stocks?
Thank you.

Q: Hi Peter and 5i team, A while ago, you answered a question on gold. I am very much in agreement with your reasons for holding gold and also what to hold. However, you likened gold to insurance and suggested to have some always. That suggests a permanent typa deal. For long periods (20-25 years stretches), gold could be a drag on the portfolio. I intend to get out of it once the threat of banking collapse, hyperinflation/currency-debasement and turmoil in global money system all subside. Are we so different on this point?
