Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: To follow up Andrew’s question early December, concerning the resignation of Josh Crumb, today on Mene’s web site he is still listed as a director, and not on Goldmoney’s website. Do you know more about his departure from XAU ? As you know XAU owns 76 million shares of MENE, and during the earnings call last January 10th, Roy Sebag said that Mene could generate 50 to 100 million in revenue within 1 or 2 years. Last quarter revenue was 2 million. That caught my attention, what are your thoughts on taking a position in MENE ? Do you think this is a company you might produce a report on ?
Thanks

Q: Hi there, I've held KL since around $10 and the weighting is now about 8.5% of my portfolio. The chart looks great and it continues to hit new all time highs. I know it is prudent to trim my position. What weighting of a portfolio would be good for a name like KL? This is my only gold position. Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i,

I'm looking to increase my current Financial Sector weighting from 5 to 15%. I currently hold BNS @ 2.2%, SLF @ 1.5%, and GSY @ 1.3%. What would you add too and/or too a new position? I don't like to have more than 5-6% of one holding, of course this would be risk adjusted down according to market cap/safety.

Last part, on sector weightings. I follow your general recommendation and I noticed you changed the following from Oct'18 to Jan'19 as follows:
Consumer disc. 10 up to 15,
Consumer staples 10 down to 5,
InfoTech 20 down to 15, and
Utilities 5 up to 10.

Can you add some commentary behind these sector weight changes?

Thanks, Chris.

Q: Would you please help me understand how the preferred share TD.PF.B resets it’s new interest rate later this year. The prospectus states that the new interest rate will be equal to sum of the Government of Canada Yield on the Fixed Rate Calculation Date plus 2.27%. My two questions are 1) What is the present Government of Canada Yield as mentioned in the prospectus to be found on the Bloomberg Screen GCAN5YR page, and 2) What is the Fixed Rate Calculation date? Is it July 31 2019 as mentioned in various parts of the prospectus. Thanks ... Cal

Q: Given the uncertainties of the USA policies affecting China, North American tariffs, the shut down, etc., I am looking ahead as to how the Dem Congress, the GOP Senate and White House will be able to ratify the USCMA trade accord in 2019. Then too, Canada and the new Mexican government must ratify the trade terms. Would you share your thoughts on defensive sectors? I am a prudent investor. Thank you …. Martin
