My two part question; What is your outlook on GOLD over the next year? What would you recommend as a surrogate gold investment if I were to sell GOLD? Thanks very much for your great service.

Q: I was interested in Stifel’s recent bullish long term forecast for commodities. Do you share in their enthusiasm, and can you suggest a favoured ETF and several preferred stocks in the sector. Thanks, Don

Q: Pondering selling my position in NGT and replaced it with AEM. NGT's performance in the last 12 moths seems to be below par, relative to their peers and the future does not seem to be very promising. Can you give me a read what has driven the weak performance and if you agree with the switch. Does a small position in gold producers make sense at this stage?
Much appreciated.

Q: Is there any particular reason why the miners are doing so poorly against the price of gold? Is this a buying opportunity or is the market anticipating a downturn in gold prices? Would you prefer buying the metal (eg. GLD) or the miners (eg. AEM, ABX, BTO)?

Q: Can you provide some commentary on PAAS vs AEM from a company standpoint, as well as silver vs gold right now as a precious metals investment - is silver's use as a "green" metal significant from an investment standpoint?

Q: I'm thinking of taking some positions in base metals companies. I'm especially interested in copper plays as it seems to be needed to support the drive to electrification. Do you think this is and opportune time to initate positions? In any case, I would appreciate it if you would share some of your favorite companies in this sector and it would help if you would present them in order of most upside to least going forward. I'm open to metals. other than copper as well.

Q: Hello Gentlemen

I am quite bullish on gold over the next while. I own AEM which is up 23 % KRR which is up 38% and KNT which, believe it or not is down 5%.

My question is should I continue to hold KNT which has proven to be a real laggard in the space and whose price is down over the past year despite the metal surging.

If you think I should hold on to it please tell me why. If you think there are better options with better upside please let me know in priority of how strong you feel.

Thanks


Sheldon

Q: Hi 5i
I would like to replace AEM in my LIF account with another basic material holding. My goal is growth. Both NTR and WFG are looking interesting now. Could you give your opinion of which would likely be the better play for a long term. With the pending slow down/recession would you switch now or wait?
Thanks
