Gold and Silver Melt, or Meltdown?

Guest Post by Marin Katusa via International Man

Since early July, I’ve told my subscribers in the precious metals markets to take a Katusa Free Ride on all our gold stocks.

Thus, all but one stock in our portfolio has a zero-cost base, and we are flush with cash.

Is it time to jump in right now?

Before we get into what to do now, let’s do a quick review of the gold market for the last nine months.

Gold and silver were fresh off of multi-year highs.

Retail and institutional interest was at a multi-year high.

And volumes were through the roof.

Gold Stocks Are Going to Be Explosive

Guest Post by Doug Casey

My regular readers know why I believe the gold price is poised to move from its current level of around $1,588 per ounce to $2,000… $3,000, and beyond.

Right now, we are exiting the eye of the giant financial hurricane that we entered in 2007, and we’re going into its trailing edge. It’s going to be much more severe, different, and longer lasting than what we saw in 2008 and 2009.

In a desperate attempt to stave off a day of financial reckoning during the 2008 financial crisis, global central banks began printing trillions of new currency units. The printing continues to this day. And it’s not just the Federal Reserve that’s doing it: it’s just the leader of the pack. The U.S., Japan, Europe, China… all major central banks are participating in the biggest increase in global monetary units in history.

Tax Loss Season: What Does the Broken Clock Setup Look Like?

Via International Man

Back in October 2018, Goldcorp was trading at its lowest level in 16 years.

This was before Goldcorp merged with Newmont, one of the world’s largest and oldest gold producers.

Goldcorp wasn’t alone. Shares of precious metal mining companies were decimated in a horrid year for gold stocks.

The last time Goldcorp traded below $9 was in 2002. That was back when gold was trading for under $300 an ounce.

Doug Casey: Gold Stocks Could “Go Wild”…

Via Casey Research

Chris: Doug, as you know, gold’s had a big year, up 15%. Do you see this trend continuing? And if so, what’s a specific catalyst that could send the gold price – and gold stocks – higher?

Doug: Oddly, even as gold has moved from $1,100 to $1,500, these crappy little junior mining stocks, the explorers and developers, have gone nowhere… But the big ones have done okay.

Doug Casey: Why Gold Stocks Are an “Asymmetric Bet”

My regular readers know why I believe the gold price is poised to move from its current level of around $1,460 per ounce to $2,000… $3,000, and beyond.

Right now, we are exiting the eye of the giant financial hurricane that we entered in 2007, and we’re going into its trailing edge. It’s going to be much more severe, different, and longer lasting than what we saw in 2008 and 2009.

These reckless policies have produced not just billions, but trillions, in malinvestment that will inevitably be liquidated. This will lead us to an economic disaster that will in many ways dwarf the Great Depression of 1929–1946. Paper currencies will fall apart, as they have many times throughout history.

It’s Time to Pile Back Into Gold Stocks

Guest Post by Jeff Desjardins

 

The blessing and curse of being a contrarian is this: an inevitable outcome is recognized well before it comes to fruition. Even though profitable opportunities may be identified well in advance, it can take so long for hallmark events such as capitulation to happen, that it gives ample time to second guess one’s convictions.

We’ve believed, even before the correction that has recently hit U.S. markets, that the bear market for gold was long in the tooth. With asset bubbles all over the place, it has seemed for awhile that gold and silver were the only assets that were reasonably priced. Then yesterday, our friends at Palisade Capital sent us over five charts on why they believe that gold stocks are the most undervalued that they have been in decades.

We tend to agree with that sentiment, which is why in last week’s chart of the week we predicted that gold had already bottomed and that it had nowhere to go but up. (We further predicted that other commodities such as base metals would continue to get routed for the time being, and that U.S. equities would not return to the same levels for awhile.)

In any case, here are the charts:
