Dave Erfle – Metals Stocks: Stick To The Winners

Cory
August 6, 2024

Dave Erfle, Editor of the Junior Miner Junky joins us to discuss how the market is doing the work for investors by isolating the high quality companies from the low quality companies. 

 

We begin by discussing the recent corrections in the U.S. equity markets and shift our focus to the distinct performance of higher-quality juniors, mid-tiers, and majors in the resource stock arena. These companies are outperforming many others, illustrating that savvy investors are gravitating towards better stories and opportunities. 

 

Dave shares his recent stock picks, explaining how he identified companies showing strong upward trends from bombed-out lows or solid bottoms with rising volume. For instance, one of his chosen stocks attracted strategic partners and experienced a rise in volume, signaling a positive shift. Another company, an up-and-coming silver stock, released a strong PEA and sparked interest from strategic partners, showcasing the criteria he uses to build his investment portfolio. Dave emphasizes the importance of analyzing the internals of these companies, such as ensuring they have access to capital, a tight share structure, and enough cash flow to last at least 12 months.

    Here is another good one for the day: yesterday EMOTF was down -10.36 and opened this morning at +7.71%. Great.
    However, all day long EMOTF has sat on Schwab and the OTC at 1000 shs sold at +7.71 %. Now average volume is normally about 43K on a daily basis and maybe 150K plus in cad. EMO.V is showing 60K traded and -2.70. Now if that same value and normal volume were sold in the US, it would of course alter account totals beyond a negative 2% probably for EMO holders on the OTC. It appears that they want to hold that positive value no matter what the markets actually would be. (possibly until close and dump hard or maintain a false positive for EMO). (Currently the Bid is at or near the .5124 only trade of the day and the buy is at .5408. Could be nobody is going to pay .5408 with no other trading. They may not have the shares or trying to get sales at the .5124 which no one wants to do either.

      I don’t know why you trade on the OTC, we have discussed this before you get what you complain about when you deal in over-the-counter derivatives. DT

        Wrong but you feel the need to make general conclusions. The point of all of my references is that” the entire system is rigged”. That is criminal and everyone accepts it except “ Save Canadian Mining”. Make sure to raise these issues with Eric Sprott and others. If the entire system is rigged, then the outcome is rigged. If the outcome is also rigged then there will not be differences between stocks in Cad or OTC until it is to their benefit to switch sides. My pointing out discrepancies in plain view, shows a growing intervention either because they are emboldened or in serious problems. Seeing obvious discrepancies opens the door to the iceberg of corruption and problems we can’t see. Historic rules trading are no longer to be relied on at any level. Just look at the Big 7 …. Explain that distortion along with an overvalued General Market that has extended itself without considering intervention by authorities. I have tried to transfer my account, but have only partly successful. If I transferred it all to Microsoft or cash I could do it. But once transferred, I could also transfer it all back to the ones I hold. I am happy with what I hold. I am not happy about false data that alters daily values which very likely trigger intervention based on the false data. Charts can show me where I am , but it doesn’t seem to be reliable for the future.(Help: think in terms of how markets are functioning and not a sector or value involved.)

          Same old same old from you! LOL! DT

            Give me some facts.

            (Added: I have reported errors to Schwab probably 15-20 times and the responses have been “we don’t understand”, we don’t see an error”, “I have reported it” to also “ the program accomplishes its intended purpose”. I guess complaining about the ovens at a prison camp could have the same answer). The bottom line is that you are possibly blaming victims rather than perpetrators. Do Junior Miners have value or are they only to be considered victims of corruption and greed as that is what they deserve. That does not compute.

            Aug 06, 2024 06:16 PM

            Let me ask a different question if you don’t like talking about intervention and false data.
            “What are the purposes of stock exchanges. “ Is it to facilitate the exchange of shares in public corporations and businesses” or is it “to create obstacles to investment through paper markets, futures options, derivative alternatives, dark holes off balance sheet out of market unregulated alternatives, insider trading, and other forms of deceptive trading mechanisms that facilitate transfer of wealth to “operators” of free and fair markets”. Obviously more options but I don’t think the original purpose of establishing stock exchanges was to bleed the liquidity of the start up companies or small cap growth companies for the benefit of those that are to “facilitate” only fair trading among buyers and sellers. Why do we pretend it is ok.

    Lion One has been delisted on the ASX having run afoul of some listing rule. Lion One claims they wanted to delist anyway since volumes were very low and not worth the expense, as if that should matter to a company with so much gold in the ground…pathetic management wouldn’t even cough up a few pennies to maintain listing. Another one off my watch list.

      Aug 06, 2024 06:31 PM

      Lion One might have gotten lucky, the way these markets are going in another month from now they may be sitting at .05 cents. I’m not worried about them being delisted from the ASX. It probably had something to do with the recent financing where the shares were listed in all provinces of Canada except Quebec. They were not listed for sale in The U.S. Maybe Australia has regulations where when financings are done Australia is included in the share offering. Ex could probably clear this up. DT

        IS LION ONE…………one of the FRANK G.. companies……?

          Aug 06, 2024 06:19 PM

          Hi Jerry, as far as I know he is not but if the share price keeps falling, he may get in. You know Frank he likes M&A Mergers and Acquisitions, he also has his fingers in multiple different businesses, like Agribusiness, Entertainment, and Human Rights. His big interest is in building the biggest Gold Company on The Planet.😉 DT

            Thanks DT…for the comment…..

    For all the name droppers at the Rule Symposium mentioning Meteoric(METOF) including his truly, of which I heard 4 separate interviews, they are all down from Day 1 -July 11th between 30%-55% to date. I wish the old fart would stop dropping names on his broadcasts or interviews.

      Aug 06, 2024 06:55 PM

      I noticed and now almost 2B shares outstanding on that company ….Meteoric.

        Aug 06, 2024 06:04 PM

        2.24B out but the float is only 1.44B according to Yahoo. That’s a lot of paper but it’s got a lot of cash and no debt so the question is, is it worth its $137M market cap?

          Aug 06, 2024 06:21 PM

          Well, they got a lotta mud laced with REE but apparently it is more difficult to separate those from the clay. Others are talking about the high quality rock hosted REE deposit of Red Metal(RDM.AX) which they say is cleaner and easier to extract.

            Aug 06, 2024 06:38 PM

            Thanks. It looks interesting but I’ll probably pass. It looks like they will soon be taking on plenty of debt so maybe I’ll take another look when production isn’t far off.

            The vast majority of rare earth exploration and development companies have not made it into production for the last 15 years.

            In fact, only Lynas and Energy Fuels have actually made it into production of rare earth elements. Everything else has either failed or stalled.

            Personally, I like playing the sector through (UUUU) Energy Fuels, because they are primarily a Uranium producer, but also produce Vanadium and Rare Earths.

            Then for a down-stream rare earths processor, Ucore Rare Metals (UCU) is a legitimate company.

            Most of the rest are a big question mark….
