BUY
Setup for gold and silver is very strong. Expecting benefit from gold prices. Good time to buy shares.
BUY
The miners are very cheap. The question is what's going to happen to the commodity, because you have to make your call on it before you look at the businesses. If the price of gold goes sideways, those companies won't do much. Right now, he likes stocks better than royalties. Royalty companies are better to have once things get going. Stocks like AEM, NGT and ABX are really down, and that's a better way to play now.
BUY
Currently owns shares and believes one of the best managed gold companies. Not cheap relative to other gold companies. Would recommend buying for long term shareholders.
TOP PICK
Headwinds of rising interest rates and strong USD this past year. Compressed valuation. Go-to name in the sector. No geopolitical risk. Merger added value. Decent profile going forward. USD should come off its peaks, and this should be good for gold and commodities. Yield is 3.68%. (Analysts’ price target is $83.73)
BUY
It's one of the best-managed gold companies in Canada. They have a great asset base, including Australia after buying Kirkland Lake. He's not a big fan of gold; the price of it has lagged real estate and stocks. But AEM itself is a great company.
TOP PICK
It made a clever acquisition buying Kirkland Lake which has lots of property. It is a very good combination and should do well as a business. Gold and Silver should mover up. Buy 9, Hold 3, Sell 1.
HOLD
Extremely high-quality gold mine. Investment quality. Need patience for the next 12 months, as cashflow coming off one mine but needs are ramping up elsewhere. He has no plans to sell. Almost a brand name for liquidity and quality in the gold equity sector.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Apr 12/22, Down 18.3%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Our PAST TOP PICK with AEM has triggered its stop at $67. To remain disciplined, we recommend covering the position at this time. This will result in a net investment loss of 9%, when combined with the previous top pick recommendation.
TOP PICK
Canada's second-largest gold miner. Transformational merger/acquisition with KL. Diverse, large-scale producer. In lower-risk mining jurisdictions. Almost a pure play on gold, generating 98% of revenues. A consistent dividend grower. Company obsessively avoids serial equity raises. Yield is 2.76%. (Analysts’ price target is $94.49)
BUY

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly We again reiterate AEM, one of Canada's largest and low cost gold producers as a TOP PICK. Management is bullish on its Australia mine, further exploiting its strategy of building reserves in geopolitically safe regions. It also pays a good dividend, backed by a payout ratio under 55% of cash flow. We recommend trailing the stop (from $60) to $67, looking to achieve $104 — over 27% upside potential. Yield 1.94% (Analysts’ price target is $104.28)

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O’Reilly The recently announced “merger of equals” with KL couldn’t have happened at a better time, given the uncertainty in global markets and the threat of inflation, and is why we reiterate AEM as a TOP PICK. The new combined portfolio will allow the new entity to become one of Canada’s largest and lowest cost gold producers, and help an already good dividend get even better. We recommend trailing the stop up to $60, looking to achieve $93 — over 15% upside potential. Yield 2.58% (Analysts’ price target is $90.80)
COMMENT
Question on whether to buy Franco-Nevada or Agnico-Eagle. Streaming companies like FNV are not rocketing up but are steady. FNV has interests in many properties and has a good history of raising dividends. AEM now has less exploration upside than historically. Would pick FNV over AEM
TOP PICK
Lots of land to explore and develop. Merged with KL, a profitable company. A merger almost made in heaven. Yield is 2.66%. (Analysts’ price target is $92.77)

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O’Reilly AEM is entering into a “merger of equals” this month with KL (one of our TOP PICKS). Each KL share will be granted 0.7935 shares of AEM. KL is virtually debt free and generating excellent free cash. This will blend well with AEM’s portfolio, allowing it to become one of Canada’s largest and lowest cost gold producers, and help an already good dividend get even better. Both companies trade around 2.5x book value. We like the prospect going forward of the new combined force. We recommend setting a stop loss at $50, looking to achieve $93 — over 45% upside potential. Yield 2.89% (Analysts’ price target is $93.44)
