DON'T BUY
Gold is very tricky here. Thinks $850-$900 is going to be a new range for it and you'll see big swings. Looking for it trading in a tight range of $850 plus or minus $30 for a while. Doesn't think it will go up to the $1000 level until the end of the summer.
COMMENT
This is his favourite ETF for gold investing. This one is a physical gold product and holds actual gold in a vault. Low cost at 0.4% MER. A great gold product if you like gold.
TOP PICK
Gold bullion ETF. He likes precious metals in either the bullion format or a precious metal stock. His target price for gold is near $1500 in the next 12 to 18 months.
DON'T BUY
This entitles you to a percentage of gold. Should something happen, you are not guaranteed that you will get your gold. He personally thinks a person should just go and buy gold coins.
BUY
A great product. Physical gold. He would appoint people to physical gold rather than the derivative contracts.
COMMENT
Globally banks have let us down and paper money has fallen dramatically. Gold should go higher. Gold company stocks are overpriced. As the price of gold goes up, gold companies costs are going up also. This is a way to buy bullion. The trouble is, you don't know when the change on gold price will happen and this worries him.
BUY
His target for gold is $1200 and his gold holdings include Gold ETF’s (GLD-N) (his prime play) plus 3 gold plays Agnico Eagle (AEM-T), Kinross (K-T) and Yamana (YRI-T). These are great intermediate stories with great growth potential in front of them.
TOP PICK
Gold bullion. This is a more conservative way to play gold. There is a new set of players coming into the gold sector, who are disenchanted with holding paper currency.
BUY
There is little correlation sometimes between the price of gold and gold shares. Likes gold very much and to act as a counter balance to his StreetTracks Gold ETF (GLD-N) he bought a package of gold stocks including Kinross (K-T), Agnico Eagle (AEM-T) and Yamana Gold (YRI-T).
STRONG BUY
Generally he likes gold very much. With the Canadian dollar being so high, the worst case is that the Canadian dollar will reach $1.05. This is a US stock, so if the Canadian dollar drops, the value of the stock in relative terms will go up.
COMMENT
He would consider using the Cdn$ at par to extend his holdings to extend his non-Canadian holdings.
TOP PICK
STREETTRACKS gold E.T.F. owning gold is the place to go because it’s safe. Gold could move in a big way. There may be demand from China, India or Russia.
BUY
He generally doesn't own ETF’s, but if there were one he did own, it would be this. If you think the price of gold is going up, then you want to own the commodity. With a mining company, you have exploration costs, mining costs, strikes etc.
DON'T BUY
ETF on gold bullion. He is not a big believer in gold. If you think gold is going to $1000, this is a great way to play it.
COMMENT
An easy way to own gold. With the ever strengthening Cdn$ you would be losing some of the benefits from direct investment. If you really believe the US$ is going to be considerably weaker, this is one you should own.
