TOP PICK
(Top Pick Mar 22/10, Up 23.43%) Still Likes it. His model is a sentiment model. A darn good trend. Gold often does better in currency tumults. It is in a long-term up-trend. Gold names might be a little bit later.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick June 4/10. Up 12.65%.) Overbought right now but is doing a Partial Buy currently.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick March 22/10. Up 23%.) Tracks gold bullion. Sentiment on gold got so lop-sided that his system sent up flags, so he sold his holdings.
COMMENT
Has trouble owning gold, but when every country in the world is trying to devalue its currency, this is a very attractive environment for gold. It is not more attractive than value producing companies. There is no sign that gold will change direction.
COMMENT
Gold ETF. This is a play on bullion, not gold companies.
BUY
Trades at a 1 to 10 ratio on the underlying gold bullion so it is an efficient way to get access to bullion.
TOP PICK
Gold. This one holds the physical bullion. Chart shows a nice upward trend and it broke through resistance at about $116. Sentiment on gold is starting to cool, which is okay with him as he might add more to this.
DON'T BUY
Are they really holding as many tonnes as they say they are? He doesn’t know. He tends to play gold through gold shares.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Apr 20/09, Up 38.08%) There are very few things where he sees such a long term up trend. Stick with it.
TOP PICK
Fantastic long term up trend. We have good levels of support. Good fundamentals. Canadian dollar is tied to the global growth story.
DON'T BUY
Gold ETF. He prefers playing gold where it is US$ hedged, which is available through HBP gold ETF. Doesn't see any point in trading gold if he is going to make money on the commodity but lose a good portion of it on the currency.
TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Feb 17/09. Up 12.9%.) SPDR Gold ETF. Gold is in a good long-term trend. Can be quite powerful in a deflationary environment and a lot of currency fluctuations.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Dec 01/08, Up 45.5%) Changed for XGD-T because of Canadian dollar. Also he was uncomfortable with it because of futures. Wanted to come back to Canada.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Feb 5/09. Up 48%.) Bought Jan 90 Calls, which were trading at $22.25. His cost was $15. He would sell these now. If you like gold, this is probably not a bad ETF to have.
DON'T BUY
This is the obvious choice if you want to hold physical gold but has currency risk. You might want to take a look at HBP Comex Gold ETF (HUG-T), which is hedged against the US$ so you get the full event each of the rise in gold.
