Doesn't own because of he doesn't understand the geopolitics in Papua New Guinea. This is why he prefers investing in North America whose geopolitics he does understand. Otherwise the company looks good: properties, production, metals in the ground. He has a $12.50 target and his company has this as a buy.
The fundamentals appears stronger than what the share price shows, he thinks. Their production has grown from 42,000 oz to over 80,000 oz this year. They have projections to over 120,000 oz next year. The only company producing higher grade gold is Kirkland Lake. He expects it will be added to the GDX index. This could be the gold story for 2020. Yield 0% (Analysts’ price target is $4.50)
The stock has done phenomenally well. It is the darling of the market. As they build out their mine, the market has become more comfortable with the jurisdiction.
The performance of the stock amazes him. They have a big discovery project right now. The numbers from their drilling program is good. There is geopolitical risk since it is in Papua New Guinea. The stock is doing well and he is unsure if he wants to chase it. (Analysts’ price target is $5.00)
Political risk? There's less than people think. Papua New Guinea is a frontier market with corruption, but the government has treated mining fairly well--without mining, PNG would have real problems. THE KNT deposit is a fine discovery. But KNT is fully priced as a result.
(A Top Pick Aug 09/19, Up 231%) A market darling centering around a gold operation in Papua New Guinea. The gold tailwind hasn't hurt. KNT was already gaining investor attention before this gold rally. He sees more upside here, so he's holding onto this. Also, this could be taken out down the line.
Very high-grade deposit. Good exploration success. Share price has kept pace with development. Not sure that someone will take them out, as the chart shows it's doing just fine on its own. Not sure they want to be taken out, institutional investors would help them fight off any approach.
