Q: Tax Loss selling time is just around the corner and I would like to take advantage of losses I have in above companies. I have some gains this year and I paid taxes on gains for the last 3 years as well.
Would you sell one position only and which one would you suggest. I would like to buy back at the appropriate time as well.
I would appreciate if you could prepare us for this event of tax loss selling and refresh our memories.
Thank you!

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)?
