It is a year behind OSK-T. Detour is on the other side of the border. Similar footprint. Under $500 an oz operating cost. Production goes commercial in second half of 2013. They can learn from OSK-T. Likes the metrics of OSK a little more because they are just over the cusp of getting over their problems. He would rather own Detour later.
Costs are going up and revenues are going down. They have done many stock issues and not rewarded their investors. When production forecasts fall short of expectations investors will go elsewhere.
They just a big correction for no reason. Their last earnings report said they had good earnings and really lowered costs. They have outperformed and management has executed well. It's a great entry point now. (Analysts' price target: $16.29)
(Past Top Pick, June 22, 2018, Up 1%) It took a dive after earnings (and reducing costs), then recovered after management said it would restructure the company. Solid company, and he even added to his holdings.
Recently bought it. They used to disappoint alot and have a hostile proxy fight with shareholders. It's a large, Canadian deposit. He believes they will solve their exploration problem. There's a lot of exploration upside.
(A Top Pick Mar 05/18, Up 3%) They announced last year that they were having difficulty getting productivity levels in the moving of materials. There was a change in management and some of the board. The cash flow and grade keeps going up and up.
(A Top Pick Aug 14/18, Up 20%) In a stealth way, serious money is coming into the sector. Low cost producer in Canada. Solid assets with big reserves on the ground.
They are in the process of being taken over by KL-T. The chart for DGC-T looks fairly bullish otherwise. He would buy it here unless you thought another buyer would come along.
