SELL
Looks like it can continue dropping. If economy takes off gold is not where you want to be.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Apr 4/11, Down 47.08) A mine had to be closed down and the market over reacted. He would be comfortable buying back in once we know what happened.
COMMENT
Having a few problems. If you are a long-term holder and you own, you could stay with it.
WAIT
(Market Call Minute.) Everything I could go wrong did with their Québec mine last year. Once there is some actual improvement in terms of production, you could see the stock go back up.
COMMENT
There is no reason to buy this right now. If you are a bottom fisher, you could take a stab at it. Have a stop loss of around $35. There is nothing to indicate that it is going to go up. There are better names in the gold sector.
DON'T BUY
Feels the company was striving to grow aggressively and didn't really have enough bench strength. There have been a lot of senior management changes. Very little growth. Wrote off a big chunk of their Meadowbank property, which was one of their pillars for growth.
BUY
Just reported. Had some issues and have stated they are now addressed. Raised the dividend indicating they can't meet their objectives. Have solid earnings. Not expensive. Looking at this one. (See Top Picks.)
TOP PICK
When they announced the write-down of the Goldex mine, at the current price it has just gone on the other side of it. Excellent entry point.
HOLD
They shocked investors by closing down the mine in Quebec. Sell if it goes below $33.
DON'T BUY
Pretty well publicized problems with a mine. Premium has largely disappeared, but better opportunity would be ABX. Steer clear until they resolve issues.
COMMENT
Got hit with a torpedo mid 2011 when their mine closed. Stock had been weak on a relative basis before this. A serial underperformer. However it is now too far below the 200 day so risk/reward is possibly good. Will probably rally.
HOLD
Loves gold and thinks it is going higher. Used to own this and still owns G-T. AEM is cheap and he would continue to hold it.
DON'T BUY
Big drop when they announced the closing of Goldex, one of their Quebec mines. (He sold his holdings for tax loss.) A low cost producer. Still believes management will deliver. If they bring out some good news on Goldex, there may well be a big rebound. Until then, it will be dead money
WAIT
Thinks they could have one more bad quarter. Would wait and see how this whole story goes this quarter. Bad news: “It’s never all in the stock.”
DON'T BUY
One of the weakest performing stocks in the gold sector. The big issue is that it is very hard to bring in 5 mines at the same time. Operationally they have had a difficult time with that.
