    Fear and uncertainty at the Vancouver Resource Investment Conference

    Another Vancouver Resource Investment Conference has come and gone and my fitbit racked up somewhere around 30,000 steps over the two day event. I probably lost weight at the conference but I definitely gained insight. Sure. I’ll share. This year’s VRIC was punctuated by a fair amount of anxiety, and dare I say it? Fear,…

    Small cap, big upside: drilling into Falcon Gold (FG.V) & Kermode Resources (KLM.V)

    As May, 2022 rolls on, gold is looking like a pandemic-weary survivor. The variants that were predicted to kill it (spiking interest rates) – failed to do so; the vaccines that were predicted to give benefit (high inflation) – provided little relief. Gold is currently stumbling around in a face mask, humbled, immuno-compromised, lonely and…

    Will silver stocks shine in 2022?

    Silver stocks had a pretty good run over the last few months as the world tipped toward chaos, but it seems a pullback on the mineral’s price is in the offing as Ag slipped beneath the $24 USD per ounce mark. Is this slide a buying opportunity or a long-term trend? Luckily, silver is not…

    SKRR Exploration (SKRR.V) advances multiple metal projects in Saskatchewan

    Gold is acting like a moody teenager. It’s up. It’s down. It’s insufferably braggadocios. Suddenly – it hates itself. Over the last 12-months, bullion is up USD $125/ounce (+7%), over the last 30 days, it’s down $52/ounce (-2.7%) to $1,900. “Gold and silver prices are sharply down and hit two-month lows in midday U.S. trading…

    Azincourt Energy (AAZ.V) advances uranium project in Athabasca Basin

    Uranium is required for nuclear power plants. Like aeroplanes, when something goes wrong with nuclear – it’s dramatic – it makes headlines and burns into everyone’s brain. But judged by the cold metric of human deaths per Kilowatt/hour – nuclear reactors are 40 X safer than gas and 330 X safer than coal . Nuclear…

    Uranium price retreats after printing 2022 highs. Is the momentum over?

    Uranium prices are pulling back after posting new highs for 2022. Is the upwards momentum over? No. Commodities remain the place to be for the inflation trade, and uranium has many other fundamentals backing it that are not only supply chain related. Energy is going to be a big topic in Europe as nations such…

    Three hot lithium juniors

    There is a famous anecdote about a super-star car salesman who adopted a simple career strategy: every January he researched the most popular vehicles and changed dealerships if necessary to make sure he was always selling the hottest product.

  • Karim Rayani’s world: Falcon Gold (FG.V) and Marvel Discovery (MARV.V)

    Karim Rayani’s world: Falcon Gold (FG.V) and Marvel Discovery (MARV.V)

    Gold is currently trading around USD $1,945/ounce – up $200/ounce in the last year. The current macro argument for high gold prices hinges on the accelerating degradation of fiat currency (paper), through money printing. The same argument was in vogue in ten years ago. Many pundits predicted gold would spike to $5,000/ounce. That didn’t happen.…
