Millions of investors have stormed into US Treasuries. Some have even settled for negative yields on Inflation Protected Securities (TIPS).

Talk about a small world we live and invest in! The galaxy of warrants trading on the TSX/TSXV consists of only 167 planets (i.e. constituents) in total of which only 40 are stars associated with 34 commodity-related stocks that have sufficient brightness (i.e. 24+ months duration) to warrant (the pun is intended!) the attention of earthly investors. My telescope has identified each of them and below I provide you with the particulars of each so you will be in a position to do your due diligence and begin to prosper above and beyond what you could achieve investing in the commodities and/or stocks themselves.

What am I talking about – and which warrants am I referring to? Let me explain. Words: 1703

In my opinion, “safe diversification” and “less volatile” strategies are nothing but pure absolute rubbish invented by and regurgitated from the mouths of such consultants.

The GDX has declined over 10% on a closing basis [since the end of May and] late last week broke the major support zone when it closed below 52.50. That is not good news for the gold mining bulls, but given the current dynamics of price and volume action in GDX, a bounce is due. [Let me show you why.] Words: 850

The precious metals correction is here. Gold and silver are down… and gold and silver stocks, as should be expected, are down even more but…have been hit much harder than they should have been. As a result, right NOW is the best time [we have seen] to buy gold stocks in more than two years and they’re poised to make another run of 30% in the next few months. Here’s why. Words: 767

The past couple weeks I have been keeping a close eye the price of gold and the gold miners index.
