Recent recommendations include setting stop-loss points and securing profit targets, with expectations of potential upside ranging from 18% to over 62% based on market conditions and geopolitical factors.

As a defensive asset, PHYS is considered an essential component of a diversified investment strategy.
He's not a gold bug, but there's a time and place to own different assets. Tremendous amount of government debt. Central banks around the world are buying gold right now at the greatest pace in a decade. Private investors are not engaged, because they had such a bad experience over time.
Part of a balanced portfolio. Own less fixed income, and more gold as an alternative safety hedge. For the first time in 45 years, less volatile than a treasury bond.
David BurrowsIt's a hedge, used to preserve his purchasing power. Happy with the gain YOY.
Brian Acker, CAForgot gold stocks, but buy this which holds actually gold. Also, it's in USD.
Brian Acker, CAHold physical hold, not the stocks. With the inflation scare, the price of gold has done nothing, hanging around $1,950, but should be higher. Gold will protect you from higher volatility which he expects.
Brian Acker, CAThe CAD can easily go to 65 cents, reflected in the price of gold. Either the TLT or PHY explodes. If we enter recession, TLT outperforms and gold declines.

Gold producers? He prefers to own the Royal Canadian Mint (MNT) and Sprot (PHY.US) and Franco-Nevada (FNV). He likes the physical element. He would also consider the Junior Miners ETF (GDXJ). At some point, there will be a role for gold to help the economy recover.

Doesn't know if it will hit $3,000, but it's going higher. He's bullish, but it's had a tremendous run up and short term, gold is overbought. Buy any pullback and don't chase strength. Also, physical gold has already factored in rate cuts, so disappointment is more likely. He'd sell gold.
