Brien Lundin, Editor of the Gold Newsletter and our host at the New Orleans Investment Conference joins us to discuss the breakout in Gold to $2,850, the outperformance of gold and silver stocks, and investment opportunities in the Toodoggone area in BC.
Gold and silver prices have shown significant increases, with gold futures nearing $2,850 and silver rising above $32.50. The stocks are also outperforming, with the GDX and SIL ETFs up over 4 and 5% today respectively. Brien emphasizes that it’s not one specific news event driving these increases, but a combination of factors including central bank moves and economic data.
The discussion also covers the performance of mining stocks, which have started to show leverage to the rising metal prices, with GDX up 16% in January alone. Additionally, we talk about specific stocks and areas showing potential, like the Toodoggone area in BC, where a recent discovery by Amarc Resources has created investor buzz. Brien offers strategic advice for investors, emphasizing the importance of timing and understanding seasonal trends when investing in area plays.
