Experts have mixed feelings about First Majestic Silver (AG-T). One reviewer appreciates silver but indicates a preference for another investment option, labeling it a good speculative play. In contrast, another expert expresses concern about the volatility of precious metals like silver and gold, noting that recent investor interest has declined in these areas after a fall-off in gold prices. This reviewer suggests a more cautious approach, favoring investments in sectors with more predictable long-term growth, such as technology or other essential industries. Overall, while there is an acknowledgment of the speculative nature of silver investments, the preference tilts towards more stable asset classes due to investor sentiment shifts and market trends.
He does not specifically follow this one but the first one he would look at would be SLW-T. He thinks of silver with the trend being dominated by gold and it would be a bit better in a good economic period. In the short term we are not looking good for a rate increase and it will look better in the wedding demand period in the spring.
His suspicion is that all the smaller silver stocks are ahead of themselves. Because of its liquidity, his inclination is to employ trailing stops if you own it. If you like the junior sector, you might be well advised at this point to be in a silver or small gold miner ETF, so that liquidity can be spread across the number of names.
This is silver, and almost exclusively focused on Mexico. You have to have a view on silver. His view is pretty agnostic between silver and gold. They both should be driven by these monetary fears that are driving precious metals at the moment. In silver, he sees more supply growth in the next few years, which means demand is going to have to really step up to take that supply in without the price going down. He sees better supply/demand fundamentals in gold. Also, silver producers are typically way more expensive than gold producers, typically trading at a 50% premium. In silver, this company would be at the very, very expensive end of the spectrum.
Likes the stock a lot and has a much higher target in the $30 range. You are going to have to deal with the volatility. Chart shows a long base from July to February, and then it took off on an upward trend. Any time you see a drop in this, it is probably a very good purchase. It is heavy duty volatility.
Chart shows a long downtrend and you want to watch for a break away gap, which he thinks it has had. The exhaustion gap occurs at the end of the move with big volume, opening higher followed by a huge volume and then closes unchanged or lower. He would prefer to see this on a weekly basis rather than the daily one.
