I have AGQ for sometime now, so I know the strange feeling… but this is something we have to accept if we are holding rather than trading… my better bets are in the gold and silver miners and even better, royalties… they capture the upsides nicely, as long as the uptrend is intact, or the price of silver or gold stays stagnant but at a higher price than the previous years, this would translate to a higher selling price for these royalties. With higher profit margins, obviously the share price would move up. Do consider those royalties for the long haul if that is what the interest lies. Just for transparency sake, I have substantial holdings in $Wheaton Precious Metals(WPM)$. I also have a little interest in $Royal(RGLD)$ and $Osisko Gold Royalties(OR)$.
