📊 Market Analysis — March 18, 2016
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
❓ How do I verify gold authenticity?
Reputable Canadian dealers like Kitco and Sprott Money sell only assayed products from LBMA-approved refiners. The Royal Canadian Mint includes anti-counterfeiting features on Maple Leaf coins including micro-engraved laser marks and radial lines visible under magnification.
❓ Can I sell gold back to dealers?
Yes, most Canadian dealers offer buyback programs. Kitco, Sprott Money, and SilverGoldBull all purchase gold from customers at competitive bid prices, typically 1–3% below spot price depending on product type and market conditions.
❓ What affects Canadian dealer premiums?
Premiums above spot price vary based on product type, weight, payment method, and market conditions. Bank wire transfers typically earn 1–2% lower premiums than credit card purchases. Larger orders (10+ oz) may qualify for volume discounts from most Canadian dealers.
💡 Canadian Gold Investor Guide
Physical vs Paper Gold: Physical bullion (bars, coins) provides tangible ownership with no counterparty risk, ideal for long-term holdings. ETFs (CGL.TO, MNT.TO) offer convenience for trading and rebalancing. A combination of both can optimize for both security and flexibility.
Tax-Efficient Gold Investing: Maximize TFSA contributions first — all gold gains are 100% tax-free. Then use RRSP for tax-deductible contributions where gains are tax-deferred. Keep non-registered gold purchases for emergency reserves, as the capital gains inclusion rate is 50%.
