drbubb Posted October 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 Sprott CEO hunting for bargains among beaten-up gold companies Bloomberg News | October 16, 2019 | Canada’s $8 billion precious metals-focused fund manager is bargain-hunting for stakes of mining firms that have seen valuations tumble. “Look for the companies that are beaten up,” Sprott Inc. Chief Executive Officer Peter Grosskopf said, sharing his company’s investment strategy. If the bigger producers of the metal don’t end up buying their smaller rivals, “the juniors will consolidate among themselves to create bigger companies,” he said. Sprott CEO Peter Grosskopf (Source: Adobe Stock) Gold miners may become attractive targets as the supply pipeline of their bigger rivals start running dry. Reserves still buried in mines owned by the largest producers have fallen by more than half from a 2011 peak, according to data from Bloomberg Intelligence. Detour Gold Corp. is an example of one those beaten-up companies and “somebody missed that one as an acquisition candidate,” Grosskopf said in an interview in New York Tuesday. In August, Sprott agreed to buy Tocqueville Asset Management’s gold strategy business. Tocqueville owns a 4.6% stake in Detour Gold. Tocqueville had started investing in Detour Gold a few years ago when the miner was in bad shape, he said. Detour Gold shares have climbed 70% this year after Paulson & Co. convinced shareholders of the mining company to overhaul its board of directors, including its interim CEO, ending a nasty six-month proxy battle. Torex Gold Resources Inc. is another attractive asset that could be a potential target, according to Sprott. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hector Posted October 22, 2019 Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 Think WTI is undecided, the pinch point keeps extending into the future and even shocks like the drone crisis could not decisively break out.

ON FX, Others Are Agreeing now Deutsche Bank argues the U.S. dollar has peaked and the euro has bottomed out MarketWatch Here’s some news that probably will cheer up one of its clients, President Donald Trump — Deutsche Bank believes the U.S. dollar has peaked. In a monthly note on its cross-asset strategy, Deutsche Bank’s argument against the dollar is more about an argument for the other side of the trade, the euro. The bank says European interest rates are already near the effective lower bound, leaving little room for more cuts. Plus, the manufacturing data between Europe and other markets are at extremes, where they tend to rebound. With markets expecting so little from Germany, Deutsche Bank sees the potential for a positive surprise. Deutsche Bank also has turned bullish on the pound, arguing the risks around Brexit have receded. As for the U.S., Deutsche Bank expects three more Federal Reserve interest-rate cuts over the next two quarters. The bank says the U.S. economy will slow to 1.5% growth in 2020 from 2.2% in 2019.

drbubb Posted October 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 Gold’s Performance During Times Of Global Monetary Easing October 21, 2019 The fresh round of global monetary easing ends the short period when major central banks talked of, and some even tried, to normalize the monetary policy after all the unconventional measures undertaken in the aftermath of the Great Recession. The Fed probably advanced the most, but even the U.S. central bank failed to return the interest rates and its balance sheets fully back to pre-recession levels. The last time when the central banks eased their monetary policies in such a unison was during the financial crisis. Today’s situation is not as grave as in 2008, but the central banks all around the world take the trade tensions and the U.S. yield curve inversion seriously. They worry about the risk of recession and try to prevent it, or to cushion the blow. What does the global monetary ease mean for the gold market? Generally speaking, the central bankers’ aboutface seems to be very bullish for the yellow metal. The lower policy rates should translate into lower real interest rates, while some bond yields may fall even further into negative territory. Thus, the environment of low interest rates and elevated recessionary risk – otherwise, the central banks would not ease their stance – is fundamentally supportive for the gold prices. What is particularly encouraging is that the Fed is also easing its monetary policy. It implies that the divergence in monetary policy will not widen, or it may even narrow somewhat – abstracting from the QE, the ECB cut its target rate by 10 basis points, while the Fed by 50 basis points – which is a fundamental reason for a weaker the U.S. dollar, which could remove some downward pressure from the gold market. . . . although the price of gold did not always rise during the Fed’s easing cycles, the last two instances were positive for the shiny metal. What is crucial here is that the Fed’s easing cycles were accompanied by the narrowing divergence in the long-term interest rates in the United States and the eurozone. The chart below shows the difference between 10-year Treasury yields in both areas and the federal funds rate. As one can see, when the Fed was cutting interest rates, the spread was usually diminishing or even becoming negative. Chart 2: The spread between the 10-year US and euro area government bonds (blue line, right axis, in %) and the federal funds rate (green line, left axis, in %) from January 1971 to August 2019 It is a great piece of news for the gold bulls. As the chart above shows, the difference between interest rates in America and in Europe is at record highs. This is what has recently supported the value of the greenback, keeping gold from rallying more intensely. Now, with the Fed’s new easing cycle, the spread may diminish somewhat. It means that there is further room for the gold prices to go up in the medium term if it does indeed translate into lower USD values. > https://www.investmentwatchblog.com/golds-performance-during-times-of-global-monetary-easing/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drbubb Posted October 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2019 PHILIPPINES STOCK WARNING I posted on a viber chat: "The more I look into the charts, the more Dangerous I think this setup looks!" PSEI - vs. SMPH, ALI, MEG ... from 8/2016 : VIX : 10d / Last: 7,947, smph: 38.80, ali: 49.00, meg: 4.86 (agi: 11.74) Why is this Dangerous? PSEI looks weak, barely holding up, on the bottom of the long term upwards channel. The upmove in Property stocks, to a likely cyclical peak in JULY, gave PSEI a Right Shoulder (RS#1= "Prop.Peak") Many Stocks appear to be running out of momentum. + After the July peak, MEG stock collapsed as fear of a loss in POGO demand hit the market + MEG and PSEI made a low in Sept. MEG fell xx% (P6.xx > 4.xx), and PSEI fell xx% (0,000 > 0,000) + Some of the fears were dismissed, and PSEI rallied back, led by a few "front-liners", like SMPH and ALI. + Many other stocks, and PSEI as a whole remained weak. (I made some money trading a bounce in AGI) + The front line property stocks appear to be losing momentum What is NEXT? Another drop very possibly, and if this one is sharp enough, it will break the uptrend in PSEI BE CAREFUL; Take some profits maybe, use some stops (if you like that technique), & hold off on new Buys. ==== MORE charts & comments at the Link below - scroll down! === Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will we see a further rise in volume and more follow-thru on Thursday? ALI-etc: ... 6mo : fr. May 5, 2019 : 10d/ ALI: 47.00 -4.08%, SMPH: 38.80 -4.43%, PSEI: 8026 -2.32%, MEG: 4.86 -1.82%, AGI: 11.50 -2.04% Some Property related comments from TS's 3A viber chat TS: What's your view on physical properties? DB: Overpriced. And especially new properties which are overpriced by maybe 20-30% vs the secondary market, Yields are poor on new properties. Buyers will need at least 5-10 years to breakeven Some properties in the secondary market with yields on 8-10% or more may be worth buying, But not in places like Manila Bay, where rental yields are propped by temporary factors, which may be reversed in POGOs move to specific areas, and away from M-Bay Property stocks will rollover as awareness spreads that there is INTENSE buyers resistance to the high priced new properties. (This phase is called "buyers remorse", since after the turn buyers of new properties will regret their purchases, and developers will be left with a glut of returned and unsold properties. Banks may even choke, and refuse to finance the very high balloon amounts, presently on offer - like 80% at Completion. Ugh! They will need more bank finance than they are worth.) (Are you sorry you asked? haha) TS: Nope because that would have been my answer too and maybe even more dire As proven by history, bubbles normally correct the rise by as much as 80% in 3 years. Recall that I put here the screen shots of my forecast of a bubble top for bitcoin right at the 20,000 level in Dec 2017. I said it will fall by as much as 70-90% in 2-3 years. I was wrong. It fell by 80% in one yr. DB: (Something that annoys me off is how totally IGNORANT the sales people are within the big developers. They don't know what YIELD is. If you ask them how much a property will rent for, they tend to invent "Daily" rates from the AirBNB market, and then multiple those figures by x30 days. This is highly. er, disingenuous, and gives highly inaccurate yields - since Airbnb properties rarely rent out from more than 50-65% of a month, and there are extra costs in running a Short term airbnb business. haha. TS: I prefer the Warren Buffett way of being in stocks than property. Oh not just stocks but all tradeable instruments and both on the long and short side, if warranted. DB: ILLIQUIDITY may become a big problem in the property market soon,,, as the mainland Chinese who bought here find that they cannot sell their completing properties at anything near the prices being listed by developers. Then we may see a very swift correction of 20-30% in prices of New properties ( BTW, there is a regular Saturday morning meet up in Makati. Where we discuss property investing. My views are informed by conversations I have had with many people at those meetups.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
