Q: I would appreciate some clarification about amount of gold exposure. In your answer to a previous question about gold you suggested always having some gold as a sort of insurance and I would like to follow that advice. Your suggested amount for now (22/Nov/12) was 10% or 15%. Would that be a percent of total portfolio (i.e including fixed income) or only of the equity/growth portion?
If one already owns a senior gold company would it be more prudent to add some gold bullion using a mutual fund or ETF, or would you still suggest sticking with more gold stocks?
Thank you.

Q: hello 5i:
thanks once again for an outstanding site. Like many of your followers, I am very happy thus far with your advice, and wish I'd taken it sooner and bought more of them. Now, my question. I have a little exposure, in my portfolio, to TRP and PPL. I would like to add a little more to this sector. Diversification is not paramount (I was thinking ENB), so what is your favourite pipeline pick? I couldn't really tell by researching the site and looking at previously asked questions.

Q: Peter,

A guest on BNN Market Call on Nov 23 suggested buying PSN as a tax loss selling candidate between Nov 23 and Dec 15. At that time the stock was 5+ and now it is even lower than 3.5 and it keeps sliding. The worst part is that the analysts who downgraded the stock after the earnings report came out, have cut their targets to half from their earlier rating (BNS downgraded it to $11 and now to $5). From the earnings date till now there is only a class action suit against the company and nothing else. Also globe and mail in their article had some favorable comments. What do you see from all this? Would you favour a buy, hold or sell at these prices?

Q: Hi Peter and Team, any further thoughts on the STO/PRY deal? Weakening quite a bit after their merger announcement highs!
Your thoughts and insight on the combined company, their land holdings and where the shares go next year would help, considering oil is at about $80.00 average.
Thanks again for your help on these names.

Q: Hi Peter and team, I'm thinking of adding to my positions of NML and KAM around 1.00. Do you see anything wrong with them here? Is this weakness basically due to tax loss selling?
Do you see the trend coninuing early next year of small caps turning around and rallying?
Thanks much.
