  • Solazyme A Buy At Current Levels For The Short And Long Term [View article]
    Thank you Kevin. I have seen a few of your articles on SZYM. Thank you for those. I think now the prices are just so depressed and the company has come so far that the company just has to be considered at current levels. Too many things are in place on the bull side. Some short covering should occur (I think it did a bit Friday) in the next few sessions.

  • Silver Bull? 6 Funds To Consider In Addition To Bullion [View article]
    I dont disagree, but it does trade with silver. I think I was pretty clear of the risks and my preference for physical and pslv over the slv.

  • Vista Gold Is Undervalued: Why Reserves At One Property Are Worth Your Consideration [View article]
    Great question. They had some early costs in the beginning of the year which caused earnings misses in the first half 2012. They have also paid for new exploration as well as feasibility studies. What recently sent the stock from 3.00 to 2.50 was their offering of shares back in december. Im not sure why people arent pouring cash in. It could be because big $$ doesnt like some of their addtional holdings and would only want to pay for mt todd. I agree with the other comment that labor costs are also high. However, I think shares are a good pick here, and could be sold around $4.00 a share. I personally think (this is speculation) that the reasoin they havent started producing is they are holding out for the buyout, OR holding out until gold is $2,000 an ounce. Regardless, the current share prices are just not reasonable for the reserves they have.

  • Platinum Is Outperforming Gold Despite A Large Deficit: Is It A Buy? [View article]
    Im upset because I didnt buy any when silver dipped below $30, as I had planned. Very upsetting, gainseville is now $6 over spot. Oh well!

  • 4 Stocks With Recent Intensive Insider Selling [View article]
    Hi Markus,

    I am somewhat of an expert on Gold and precious metals. These sales are noteworthy thank you. Many of these insiders acquired shares when the stock was 50% lower or more. A lot of this selling stemmed from avoiding capital gains tax increases. I would not read into it as weakness in the company. In fact, AUY is my top choice for gold stocks in the next two years. Looking at the last three years, AUY has managed stock growth while others have languished. the point and click charts tend to look solely at recent trends in the stock, but the recent trend in the entire sector stemmed from the selloff in precious metals. Just a word of caution for anyone thinking of shorting the name (not that you suggest this). In fact, I think its one of the best names in the space.

  • Bullish On Gold And Silver? Stream Profits To Your Account [View article]
    SLV is an exchange traded fund that has not real physical assets behind it. Ishares also just raised its fees associated with this ETF. This means that if the price of silver were to remain stagnant, say at $31 for all of 2013...then the SLV would LOSE value due to such fees. In general it will do a decent job of tracking the price of silver, but if you WANT to play a silver etf, then go for PSLV, which is 100% backed by silver.

  • Why You Should Consider Selling Your Gold Company And Buying Yamana [View article]
    I did outline the risks associated with them. Nationalization probably wont occur but what does make me slightly on edge is increase in taxes or forced discounted selling to the host nation. overally though, AUY still stacks up the best on this list.

  • Why You Should Consider Selling Your Gold Company And Buying Yamana [View article]
    Let us not forget that the entire sector is down about 15-20% which is why these companies are now good buys once again. AUY followed by GG are probably your best bets

    you are correct. Ive been recommending it since about April. With the recent selloff, there is opportunity to get back in.

  • Why You Should Consider Selling Your Gold Company And Buying Yamana [View article]
    Hi Watcher. I write frequently about many companys. I own a lot of stocks. I think AUY just happens to be the best of the gold miners. I own many of them though. I tend to write numerous articles do the way the news gets pushed out of existence on the major finance sites within days. Thus, no one can see the information. I will be releasing another on yamana after earnings :)

  • Platinum Is On Sale And In A Deficit: How To Play It [View article]
    I was concerned with this possibility back in 2012, until the spigot of spending and printing of money was doubled down on. Deflation will not happen now. But yes I did share this possibility back in early 2012, but no longer see it as possible.

  • A Shining Opportunity With Vista Gold [View article]
    I recommend the American Silver Eagles. The new 2013's are coming out soon! They are guaranteed by the US MINT. Also, GPL was a GREAT opporunity buy a few days ago in the $1.40's! I wish I added then!. Id get out of JAG and into this one..or hold the cash and wait for pullbacks elsewhere
