One of our favorite analysts, Doug Casey, Casey Research over the last few months has referred to ‘The Shopping Season’; a time to pick up at bargain prices, some of your favorite stocks and long-term warrants (editors comment) before this Fall’s resumption of the bull market.
We and some other analysts, including Lawrence Roulston, Resource Opportunities, have been anticipating the markets to take off before the end of August. And now Peter Grandich, Grandich Publications proclaims in his recent article, “Get Ready For Some Fall Action”.
Staying abreast of the current news, we see that mining companies are actually reporting some good earnings and that exploration projects are advancing and the news is good. All of this, setting the stage for one heck of a rally.
As we write this article at 1:00 CST with Gold at 625.60 (up 13.70), Silver at 12.27 (up .30) and the XAU at 146.56 (up 5.84), we have to conclude that investors should now be leaving the grocery store, proud of their new purchases, take a deep breath and exercise patience. Sure we will have some ‘backing and filling’ but don’t dilly dally. Not that you can’t buy later, albeit at higher prices, but those of you reading this are the savvy investors, right? We are the one’s who have arrived early at this party and the party is still just getting started. We will be selling out only when our friends and neighbors (who now think we are crazy) awaken to this bull market in the months and years ahead. Building inventory is what we like to call our accumulation process; an inventory of shares and warrants that will be sold at much higher prices in the months and years ahead.
Ourselves, we are aggressive investor’s preferring to purchase the shares of the junior mining exploration companies and or their long-term warrants, if trading. We had our personal ‘Shopping List’ prepared 2 months ago and during this corrective phase have made numerous new additions to our portfolio and/or added to existing positions. We were aggressive buyers when some of our favorites were beaten down on this correction. We wish to say thanks to the sellers of those shares that we picked at the lows.
For now, we’re done, tapped out! “ALL IN” as the poker players love to say. How about you?
We share with you some charts to reflect where we are currently and keep in mind; as I recall Paul van Eeden has said, “it’s all about the U.S. Dollar”.
The Dollar Index closed today at 84.52 (down .46). Reviewing the charts below on the HUI and the XAU it is apparent that we need a clean breakout of the 350 level and 150 level respectively to really get this party going once again.
