Short and long term outlook for the Precious Metals stocks
Tuesday, 01 June 2010
In this environment, we have been concentrating on ensuring that our portfolios have the best quality securities in them.

Our other strategy has been – where appropriate in our five portfolio offerings – to be overweight in gold and precious metal stocks.

Gold hit a new high of $1,225 pre-Christmas but, recently with the escalation of fears concerning Greece and other high debt-to-GDP countries, bullion has moved back to exceed those December highs.
