Niocorp’s Nebraska Niobium Deposit Could Generate Cash Flow For Over Three Decades

Niocorp (NB.TO or NIOBF) has had an impressive year finishing a major three phase drilling program demonstrating to the investment community that Elk Creek is a world class high grade and large niobium resource. Niocorp recently announced some economics in the Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA). The 311 page report can be read by clicking here. Despite a four month correction all the way below the 200 day moving average, the stock may bounce higher as momentum is improving. The MACD is rising and the stock has broken above the critical 50 mark on the RSI. What might intelligent investors be reconsidering in this PEA to start once again buying Niocorp?

Why Niocorp (NB.V or NIOBF) Is Soaring Over 230% in 2014

Niocorp is soaring 230% in 2014 and has reached a short term overbought condition. New investors should look for a healthy pullback or consolidation to the 20 or 50 day moving averages. See my recent interview with CEO Mark Smith. Mark built Molycorp (MCP) from hardly nothing to a billion dollar company...Niocorp (NB.V or NIOBF) may be his next major project he brings into production.

Lithium Continued To Excite Investors in 2015, Will Stock Market Crash Bring Back Interest to Junior Mining?

Over the past year I have studied the content of my blog and would like to report which are my top articles and videos in terms of unique page views in 2015. Clearly, my top content in terms of interest from readers in 2015 was the lithium sector where we are continuing to see demand outstrip supply. It was one of the only commodities rising in price while the sector was wiped out by a strong dollar. The August correction in the stock market brought back retail interest over the summer. I expect as tax loss selling ends today to begin to see a rally in the new year. This rally is called the January Effect where beaten down sectors bounce as fund managers look to re-position in the new year.

Jeb Handwerger: “Picking the top 2 Stocks on OTCQX® in 2014 is a Great Blessing”

In 2014, something very interesting happened. Despite the bear market in the junior sector, two mining companies, which I'm a shareholder of and which I spoke about numerous times in 2014, led the entire OTCQX. No. 1 was Western Lithium USA Corp. (WLC:TSX; WLCDF:OTCQX). No. 2 was NioCorp Developments Ltd. (NB:TSX). Western Lithium had a 2,566% increase in daily trading volume in 2014. NioCorp gained 394% in market cap. They were the top two of the best 50 OTCQX® companies. Picking the top 2 out of 10,000 public companies from all over the world during the worst bear market in mining history and an unprecedented stock market bubble has been a great blessing. This is why investors are attracted to the junior mining sector. If you do your homework and pick the stories that have exceptional fundamentals, you can realize exceptional gains. Two gains like that can offset a lot of losses.

Major Bullish Breakout in Precious Metals and Copper, Two Junior Miners Lead OTCQX in 2014

Mining is not dead and still leads to the best outsized gains if you do your homework as evidenced by two of our top recommendations in 2014. Two of my featured Junior Mining Stocks lead the entire OTCQX in 2014, a global marketplace with over 10k public companies in all sectors. This is amazing as it occurred during the worst bear market in mining history and the huge bubble in biotech, housing and financials. Despite this macro trend against wealth in the earth assets two of our featured companies rose to the top of the entire marketplace. #1 Western Lithium, #2 Niocorp. Western Lithium had a 2,566% increase in daily traded volume in 2014 while Niocorp gained 394% on the year.

How To Find The Junior Mining Winners During a Historic Bear Market in Natural Resources

Despite the TSX Venture being down over 25% this year, three of our featured stocks had great gains. Niocorp (NB.V or NIOBF) is up 387% on the year, Western Lithium (WLC.TO or WLCDF) soars 127% in 2014 and Canamex (CSQ.V or CNMXF) rose 108% this year. In a historic bear market, 9 out of 10 stocks fail. As the old adage states, "When they raid the house, they get them all." However, I have been blessed in that most of our featured companies are hanging in there and two of them more than doubled and one almost quadrupled in one of the worst years in resource history. This indicates to me that our system of research and due diligence is improving and should show outsized gains once the 200 day moving average begins sloping higher.

Junior Miner Up Over 500% In Past Two Years Despite Venture Collapse

For years I have highlighted a strategic metal called niobium. Recently Iamgold sold Niobec, one of the largest niobium mines in North America for $500 million cash and an additional $30 million once it comes into production. This could be a huge boost for one of our long term featured companies up over 536% the past two years while the TSX Venture has lost close to half its value.

Why These 2 Junior Miners Tripled in 2014 Despite TSX Venture Decline

After a great start in 2014, the TSX Venture which is the index largely comprised of junior miners has headed into negative territory in 2014 down 2% in 2014.  Don't be surprised to see the US multinational corporations face headwinds from dollar strength.  Already the Homebuilder ETF (XHB) is already rolling over and breaking below the 200 day moving average as US real estate becomes more expensive for overseas investors.  The financials could be the next one to correct. The rising dollar is putting pressure on commodities priced in dollars.  Gold and silver is struggling in new low territory.  However, some US focused mining assets critical for domestic manufacturing and industry could actually be an area of strength. Despite the major dollar rally and selloff in commodity related mining stocks, two of our featured companies have done exceptionally well this year up 308% and 231% in 2014.
