It's always the old risk-reward ratio. If gold has an orderly run and stays at some plateau for a while, then it makes sense to hold and not have to pay tax on the capital gains if you sell the stock. If gold has a dot-com type burst to some ludicrous level, then it makes sense to take profits and move on. I suspect given the insanity in the markets the past few years, the former scenario is more likely. In other words, a return to value and rational valuations. But who knows. CD
