They’re called precious metals for a reason - they are rare, high in economic value and provide investors with a means of storing wealth. Today's guest is Cam Currie, senior investment advisor at Canaccord Genuity Wealth Management, and leader of Currie Metals & Mining Group. Cam joins us today to share his experience investing in gold and why everyone should consider it a portfolio staple but only a few understand when the time is right to start looking at equities.

In North America, gold, silver and other precious metals are often overlooked in favour of flashier sectors such as cryptocurrencies or tech unicorns.
If you are an investor yourself, this episode will provide you with a unique perspective of how to evaluate the mining industry. As a CEO or IR professional of a mining company it will provide you with unique guidance on the type of narrative that a professional investor needs to hear to consider investing in your company.
