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.

Junior Miners Holding Long Term Support, Bouncing Off 200 Day Moving Average

Despite the shorts in precious metals reaching record heights, the junior gold miners (GDXJ) continue to find support at the 200 day moving average, a critical area of long term support. This may be signaling to investors that gold may soon bottom around $1200 and that the major miners may start looking for economic deposits to replace current resources that are being exhausted. If you find quality gold properties near majors with top notch management with track records then you have a good shot to make a profit even through this historic bear market. For instance, about a month ago I sent out a report that the "Smart money is looking at the Cortez Trend". I highlighted a small junior company which just attracted one of the best mining explorers in the world to its board...

M&A In Junior Gold Sector Heating Up with Agnico Eagle Acquisition

I have been forecasting for many months that the majors will begin making acquisitions for high quality junior mining companies. Yesterday, major gold miner Agnico Eagle (AEM) agreed to buy early stage Mexican explorer Cayden Resources (CYD.V) for over $200 million in a friendly takeover deal. Agnico gets Cayden's two gold prospects near Goldcorp (GG). Cayden recently hit some good drill results and they announced some preliminary metallurgy, but it is a long way from being a mine. Personally I am quite surprised at Agnico's move. Cayden always appeared to me to be overvalued. I could argue that if recent drill results are worth over $200 million than explorers like Corvus and Canamex are significantly undervalued as their results may be much better as the drill results are better and they are in Nevada which is a much better jurisdiction then Mexico. Agnico may be up to something with Goldcorp. Do not forget Agnico outbid Goldcorp for Osisko and now Agnico comes into Goldcorp country in Mexico. Cayden borders Goldcorp in Mexico and seemed a likely Goldcorp takeover candidate. Agnico may be positioning itself for a merger with Goldcorp. It may be safe to say that Cayden is fairly valued at $200 million. With this recent deal I believe some of our featured juniors such as Red Eagle (RD.V or RDEMF) are significantly undervalued.

Junior Niobium Miner On Verge Of Major Breakout On High Grade Assays

On April 4th, 2014 I highlighted to my premium subscribers an obscure junior niobium miner which many ignored and was trading at approximately $.26. Right now, the stock is on the verge of its next major breakout at $.80 as it hits the highest grade results to date. The company announced this past week niobium assays in excess of 3% this past week.

Smart Money Looking at This Junior Miner on the Cortez Trend in Nevada

The Cortez District now hosts Barrick's most profitable mines and exploration growth. Barrick has recently made a huge discovery called Goldrush which is only about a mile from their 1 millon ounce producer Cortez Mine. Goldrush has grown to become a 15.6 million ounce deposit. Barrick is quickly realizing that this district is where it can make the most money and should focus investment on this area. Barrick believes in the future growth of this district and is partnering with juniors such as...

Summer Doldrums in Junior Gold Miners Ending?

Weeks ago I forecasted black swans on the horizon that will wake investors from their summer doldrums. I warned you about the Russian-Ukraine crisis, the rise of ISIS in Iraq and a potential war between Hamas and Israel. The junior gold miners (GDXJ) and silver miners (SIL) are on the verge of a major reverse head and shoulders breakout. Look for GDXJ to breakout through $46 and the silver miners (SIL) to break through resistance at $14.75. The copper miners (COPX) have made a major rally from $8.60 in March to $11 in July. I expected this pullback before a September Labor Day Rally. I believe the summer doldrums may be ending and we may be on the verge of beginning of a major rally. Investors may want to look into this junior miner which hit 412m of 1.4% copper equivalent in a gold-copper porphyry.

Lithium and Graphite Sector is Jumpstarting With Investor Interest

Its a very exciting time for the lithium and graphite sector as Tesla announces big plans in the near term. The announcement of a Tesla Lithium Ion Gigafactory in North America has jumpstarted the junior mining graphite and lithium sector as I discussed in this last article more than a month ago. Look at Western Lithium, Northern Graphite, Flinders Resources and Big North Graphite which have all recently made major moves. The lithium and graphite miners are still undervalued and the boom may be just beginning as there could be a major increase in demand for these batteries critical for cars,

Time To Buy The Junior Gold Miners in Nevada?

During this gold correction, miners needed to focus on lower cost targets. For Barrick and Newmont their Nevada gold production has the lowest cash costs in the world and are much less risky politically than mines in other locations. Newmont paid high prices for Fronteer Gold (FRG) back in 2011, which I owned and recommended to my subscribers back in 2010 for its Long Canyon deposit located in Nevada. Discoveries in Nevada fetch a high premium compared to assets in more hostile places. Here is another discovery to pay attention to...

Time For Junior Mining Investors to “Wake Up” from Summer Doldrums

The Junior Gold Miner ETF(GDXJ) is already up 15% this month. With geopolitical tensions increasing in the Middle East and Eastern Europe get ready for a big breakout at $1400 on gold. The move in the junior miners and silver could be huge and provide great leverage. Also watch the oil price making a big jump as all of Iraq's oil is at jeopardy of being lost as Al Qaeda takes over key areas. Higher energy prices could influence the inflationary forces hear in the United States creating a possible stagflation. Remember the US, European and Japanese economies are not growing, yet equity and food prices are soaring. The stock market and US bonds are way overvalued, while gold, silver and junior miners are just beginning to breakout of a multiyear base. As accumulation continues in the precious metals look for the record short position to cover. The accumulation in high quality junior gold miners is happening right before our very eyes. Look at this junior in Quebec who is getting major investment interest specifically from the Chinese....
