NovaGold Resources Inc. (NG-T) is identified as a highly leveraged bet on gold, primarily due to its possession of a substantial, yet undeveloped gold deposit. This deposit comes with a considerable upfront capital requirement, which raises concerns about the company's immediate financial viability. Experts suggest that if gold prices maintain their upward trajectory, NovaGold could attract a partner to help bring its assets into production. However, there is a significant risk that if gold prices falter, the company might turn into a value trap for investors, potentially losing their investment. Therefore, while the long-term prospects depend heavily on gold market performance, the current situation presents a mixed outlook.

RISKY

Leveraged call on gold. Very large, undeveloped deposit with very high upfront capital costs. If gold price continues to do well, will ultimately find a partner to put its asset into production. If gold price doesn't do well, value trap.

TOP PICK

NOVAGOLD is a well-financed precious metals company focused on the development of its 50%-owned Donlin Gold project in Alaska, one of the safest mining jurisdictions in the world. With approximately 39 million ounces of gold in the measured and indicated mineral resource categories, inclusive of proven and probable mineral reserves (541 million tonnes at an average grade of approximately 2.24 grams per tonne in the measured and indicated resource categories on a 100% basis), 9 Donlin Gold is regarded to be one of the largest, highest-grade, and most prospective known open pit gold deposits in the world. Social media mentions are up 1100% in the past 24h.

BUY

He's not a gold bug, but seeks unloved stocks in unloved sectors. Gold has consolidated nicely and made a good technical turn. His #1 gold holding is FNV-T. TGC has the largest undeveloped deposit in the world and in a safe place (Alaska) with a good partner in Barrick. All tailwinds.

TOP PICK
He is not a gold bug however he is big on structural themes and golds have been making a big turn. It would have the largest new deposit in the world. Theirs is a great asset in a group that is hated. He thinks we are into a reflationary cycle and the golds are set up to perform quite well. (Analysts’ price target is $11.97)
COMMENT

Has had a really, really good move in the short term. If you think the gold price is going up 2 years from now, you will be very happy if you bought it today. 3 or 6 months from now you will be somewhat less happy. He owns it because he likes the optionality of the higher gold and copper prices. It is going to be a very, very volatile stock.

BUY

There are two projects in North Western BC. They will be difficult to build, but have lots of gold and copper. He likes that they know they are an optionality play. They run low G&A. The management knows not to dilute now.

DON'T BUY

Not a producing company. They have two assets in Canada and have given up on one. They would have to spend $7 Billion. They have a partner that is willing to build the mine with them, but they need higher gold prices. It would be the biggest gold mine in the world. It is not the right project for the current gold environment.

SELL

This is one of those projects that is lower in grade and requires very large spending capital. In the current environment, lots of the majors are cutting back on capital spending.

COMMENT

He is bullish on gold. It needs to break out above $1800 and then we will have a dynamic run on gold to $2000. IF it does not break out and we go back to summer lows, then it will be a bad sign.

COMMENT

Gold usually does well in the summer, beginning of July, coming into the beginning of October. There can be another period at this time but you have to watch it. Be very careful.

DON'T BUY

(Market Call Minute) too high a Cap –X.

DON'T BUY
Hasn't owned this one for 10 years. Always thought the CapX was too high.
DON'T BUY
Chart shows some support at $3.60. If it got down to that level he would get out. For a long-term view, the $6 level is pretty critical and the got to that point, he would buy more. You shouldn't buy any more at this point.
DON'T BUY
Doesn’t like companies like this that are going to have to raise literally billions of dollars to bring their projects into commercial production.
DON'T BUY
Has been a management shakeup and investing some assets. Will Barrick (ABX-T) take them out? The ducks are lining up to make a thesis. Will be price dependent. He would not invest in anything on the premise that they will be taken out. There are better places to put your money.
