TOP PICK
A closed end investment fund. Mostly owns South African stocks and mostly in the mining and metals area. Believes the S.A. rand is topped out.
TOP PICK

He typically avoids mutual funds and prefers individual stocks, but as a closed-end fund, this has a limited number of securities. It is a basket of the gold miners. Owning gold in this environment with the heightened geopolitical risks, prepares your portfolio for the unexpected. Owning gold miners makes a lot of sense. As a closed-end fund, there are limited shares, and the fund will move up and down at a premium or discount to its NAV. Right now, this is trading at a 9% discount to its NAV. Closed end funds uses leverage to enhance its value, but this fund does not use any leverage.

COMMENT
It has an industrial slant to it. It pulled back with the rest of the marketplace. Around $12-13 is the support. It is pulling back today which is not a good thing but we are starting on a seasonal period at the end of January. It should do okay.
