Q: Hi Peter et al:

This is a slight variation of Robert's question on September 29th on Silver. Robert asked for high risk, high reward Silver/Gold Juniors.

Can you give some names in Silver/Gold Juniors: Low risk and reasonable reward. In other words can you add safety as a factor and give some names?

Thanks for answering my question on majors in Silver. I have initiated positions in PAAS/CDE/AG. The only thing that baffled me a bit is that I see you had included FM in some answers but not in others.

Many thanks.

Q: Can I get your general thoughts about gold and silver please. Broadly speaking gold is in a fairly new bull market, which tend to last many years once they start. Silver is just about to print its highest quarterly close ever (45 years in the making), and is within striking distance of all time highs.

For the last ~15 years it's been a fools errand to have much exposure to the sector, what do you think is an appropriate weighting for precious metals? Are you bullish on gold and silver?

What are your top 3 picks for gold exposure, and top 3 for silver exposure? Thanks!

Q: Dear Peter et al:

Many thanks for answering my question on Gold . Much appreciated.

This is along the same lines about Silver. I reviewed Q&A on Gold/Silver sub topic and I see that Christopher on September 03 2025 had asked this same question and . This is a follow up question to clarify simple things.

At this stage of the cycle, Gold Vs Silver ratio, would you prefer physical Silver(PSLV/SVR) or stocks?

Are the stocks that you picked for Christopher on that day, is it in the order of your preference/importance?

Thank you.

Q: Hi 5i, What are your thoughts on silver vs gold at this time? Looks like silver has lagged gold, not sure what the historical difference is. I also feel if this onshoring, electrification theme continues then silver might start to run, more than it has. Please provide a few Canadian etfs and stocks you think might participate. Lastly, gold, does it have room to continue to run as it appears a devaluation of the greenback is likely to continue. Thx.

Q: Does 5i have a preference for any particular US or Canadian silver miners? In the past, the go to name was always First Majestic but the fiasco surrounding Jerritt Canyon seems to have hampered the company.

Thank you as always
