Q: Hi, with everything going on in the world I was thinking of moving a sizeabamoule nt of Cdn $$ into a Swiss Franc Bank account in Canada through UBS.I just want to diversify away from the US$$ and the Cdn $$. And it seems the Swiss Franc is a really stable currency.
Then I saw the FXF:US Trust and wondered if you thought that was a better idea. I prefer to have less paperwork and easy access to tax docs at tax time. I'm not trying to avoid taxes in any way.

Q: On semi-conductor chips, I already own NVDA (since 2023). Considering adding another with your help.
I really don't see chip demand letting up anytime soon (Ai, robotics, autonomous vehicles, cellphones, IoT, etc).
With TSMC opening mfg plants in Arizona, maybe some of the geopolitical risk is tempered now.
Is QComm the dark horse?

THX.

Q: Would you have suggestions for ‘undervalued’ gold stocks in relatively safe countries, producers if possible? I took some profits on my holdings: AEM, TXG, OR, CXB. I have FNV too.

I am waiting for my remaining CXB to be exchanged for EQX soon. Do you think this is a good deal and EQX worth holding? It did not perform that well in the past.
Thanks a lot.
