Q: Dear Peter:

I see that SVM has just been added with a 1.5% position in 5i portfolio. This didn't get any mention in various questions on Silver by members. I see that the answers to previous questions on SVM (going back to August and beyond) didn't seem that enthusiastic.
Something must have changed. Bit surprised by the rationale in your portfolio update b/c China is not exactly in a "politically" correct environment!
In any event where would you place SVM amongst Silver stocks. (PAAS/CDE/AG/HL were your safe picks previously)

Many thanks.

Q: My total allocation in my portfolio is currently at 16%. However, it is inverse what the asset allocator recommend with nearly 4% in Cyclical and over 12% in Defensive. Would you recommend shifting some within Consumer? Do what extent does this matter since the boundary between both seems somewhat artificial? FYI - I own ABEV, BKGN, DOL, FDP, SAP all in my RRSP. If you recommend that I shift into Cons Cyclical, what would recommend as of today for my RRSP (US and CAN)?

Q: Roughly a month ago, I finished building a small, but "full" position. (2% vs a blue chip 4-5%).

I know you are not a fan of averaging down, but with the "GSY-short report sympathy decline", would you make an exception here and add more to PRL?

If so...and trying to avoid "catching a falling knife", at what price would you add at? When I look at the technicals, to my amateur eyes it looks like $23-24 has some support. Be more patient and wait for that price to come?

Your thoughts?.....Steve
