Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Gold above $2050 would be bullish I think. Wondering what your thoughts are on this asset category at this time and looking for your top two large and small cap picks that would have torque to a higher gold price.

Also a comment on the dividend sustainability of B2 would be appreciated.

Thanks folks

Q: Good morning,

Do you think it may be prudent to swap out Franco Nevada shares now (considering the growing list of political/legal headwinds) for something else?

If so can you give a Canadian suggestion for gold exposure, along with two other picks (any sector) for a possible year-end through January bounce (CAD or US)? Thanks. Brad

Q: Hello Peter,
I've held FNV shares as my gold allocation since Q4/2018. Currently, I have a "reasonable" return of 8% per annum including dividends. With all the legal drama FNV is realizing in Panama, is it wise to sell FNV and buy another streamer or hold FNV for the long run?

Sitting with a taxable cap gain of 28%. Seems like the impact of FM is going to be significant for future earnings. Please advise your wisdom. Thank you.

Cobre Panama Supreme Court Update

TORONTO, Nov. 28, 2023 /CNW/ - Franco-Nevada Corporation ("Franco-Nevada") (TSX: FNV) (NYSE: FNV) is aware that the Supreme Court of Panama announced this morning that Law 406, the law that approved the revised concession contract for the Cobre Panama mine, is unconstitutional. Franco-Nevada is in communication with its partner First Quantum Minerals Ltd. and will provide further updates as they are available.

Q: Since the mine in Panama is 20% of FNV revenues and the share price is down about 20% from the approximate $200 valuation expected with the current price of gold (based on past episodes), would you consider the total loss of this revenue stream to be "in the price", or is there further downside if the court ruling goes against the mine?

Q: Hi, my question is which etf to buy in the Sprott precious metal group? I’m selling my bullion and buying a etf. I can buy gold, gold and silver, platinum and palladium or uranium.
My plan was to just buy gold ( phys), but I see I have other choices. What would be your suggestion for a 4-5 minimum year hold?
Thanks

Q: Hi 5i
Given current situation with the Panama referendum, What value does this mine contribute to FM overall value and assuming the vote is negative and FM loses it licences ect...what would you estimate the fair value share price to be...current price is around $13.50.....(I imagine the immediate reaction would be very bad...).....Hi 5i
Additional info for my First Qauntum question, Currently hold small position and want to decide if i should unload it or hold on...inside a registered plan so no tax benefit to sell.

thx
