Q: Next Thursday, 11 companies (which I hold) are reporting their earnings either before market opens or after market closes. This is a record for me. Curious, what procedures do you or other 5i team members use to deal with even more companies reporting their earnings on the same day in a timely manner? Thank you.

Q: I am wondering what the most relevant gold price is. I see the December gold futures contract displayed on BNN as of yesterday, and which just touched 2k, but that contract seems a little far out (time wise). Shouldn't they be showing the September or October contract prices when the August contract 'rolls over'? Is the spot price the most relevant price, or the front month contract? When exactly is a futures contract considered 'rolled over'? What is a reliable source for the gold spot price?

Please deduct as many credits as necessary and help me clear up my confusion. Thank you.

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

What are your thoughts on this company for a small cap play? I realize its high risk but do you see potential in terms of good management and general future prospects? Could you comment on debt, revenue and insider ownership?

Thanks as always for all you folks do.

Q: Hello 5i,
I'm currently holding a 2.44% position in XGD etf. I would like to add 2.5% to either a junior gold etf or gold bullion CGL.C.T. My concern is has gold climbed to rapidly. Should I wait for a better entry position. If you have other gold buying suggestions or not, please add. Thank You. Walter

Q: Hello and thanks for your insights. I'm looking at these three as long-term (~5years) paid-to-wait plays on demographics/pandemics/energy respectively. Collectively, 10% of my portfolio. I'm retired and 55 and could manage nicely if all three went to $0.

Question: Do you consider this move to be on the lower end of the risk meter?

Q: Could I please get your thoughts on this ETF as a potential LT hold. I like the idea of having a diversified way to invest in the Blockchain space but I am concerned that it's strong run since April means most of its holdings are overvalued. I did find somewhere that its P/E is around 19.5 which wasn't as high as I thought it might be.
