It has been a frustration couple months since the fundamentals are strong for gold to rise. There is a lot of money that would have gone to gold that is going to Bitcoin. There is an alternative flight to security. However, in the long term, the thesis still holds for gold.

Still bullish on outlook on precious metals. Central banks will have to monetize debt to keep the party going. We will still see growth but at the expense of the balance sheet. Monetizing debt will be a theme for the foreseeable future. Silver is an important compartment for electrification so it could see a good play. Gold will be important for the devaluation of fiat currency.

He owns IAU instead. Gold itself, not gold miners. He buys gold as a diversifier opposite his equity, so he doesn't want more exposure to equities.

The large gold companies in Canada. Contrast to ZGD, which is BMO's equal weight gold global producers. Gold exposure is important to buffer inflationary shocks. Most portfolios are underexposed to asset classes that can provide returns when inflation starts.

XGD vs. HUG and the impact of the November election XGD is the granddaddy of gold ETF wth top holdings being Newmont, Barrick and FNV, totalling 40%. Given this weighting, he prefers HEP. HUG holds the actual gold. He doesn't know how the US election will effect gold stocks, which is why people buy gold--a reaction to uncertainty.

HEP-T vs. XGD-T. HEP-T has a covered call overly to the gold stocks and generates extra yield. If you are bullish then you don’t want that covered call. If you are a yield seeker then it is a fine way to get exposure to gold.

He has not owned gold for a long time. It is a trade that has been working out. Gold allocation on the TSX is now at 10%. It is a flight to safety. Spending will eventually fuel inflation. He did not want to take the risk of an individual stock.

If you want to play gold it is the best way to do it. With the amount of QE around the world there will be inflation. This is better than buying a company as there are no company specific issues.

He does not like this ETF. He would prefer to own the shares, not just holding derivatives. This can cause discounts to NAV at times. He would prefer to hold solid producers like FNV or ABX. If you want an ETF, he would pick HGGG.
