Q: Hi Peter and 5i Team,

I’m wondering why, for all periods (3 month, 6 month, 1 year, YTD, 3 years, and 5 years) MNT beats both CGL and CGL.C even though the M.E.R. Of MNT is slightly higher than the other two. Is MNT a good way to get some gold exposure in these turbulent times? Thanks as always for your insight.

Q: Hi,

1) Is there an advantage to holding PHYS:CA vs. PHYS:US? How do they stack up with currency fluctuations?

2) Is there any risk with PHYS:US trading on a US exchange if the US goes crazy about Canadians investing in the US? Would it be better to hold PHYS:CA?

Thanks for the help. Michael

Q: Hello 5i!

I know this company has some significant geo-political challenges but are the fundamentals still attractive despite these risks?
Respecting you don’t have a crystal ball do you see the geo-political risks as too great to be a buyer or would you be buyers now that the stock has dropped 40% in a short period?
I am a growth oriented investor with higher tolerance for risk within reason.

As always thanks for your sage advice in these volatile times - your team continues to steer us with wisdom and reasonability and this is appreciated!

Q: I would appreciate your insights on these 2 early stage mining companies; primarily as a patient medium term copper play. I would not be surprised if they were purchased by a large player at some point, but understand one should not "hang their hat" on that end game.

Which would be your preferred and why? They would sit in a 25-30 y. olds TFSA account which, while it would not capture any capital loss would shelter gains.
