BUY
It's been caught up ike many of the juniors in the last year and there's been very little buying. This one is a very good situation 1) likes their exploration potential in the Red Lake district and 2) they've gotten involved in a Congolese venture which has a very larfge potential ore body. Very undervalued stock.
BUY
In relation to a lot of the gold complex, he feels it is pretty well valued. If gold takes a big push forward, this and Newmont (NEM-N) will be the go-to stock in the large cap area. They're very aggressive and will be consolidating the industry. Will full participate in any upturn in gold.
DON'T BUY
A bit of a cult stock. Overpriced relative to the list.
BUY
(Owns over 10% of the company.) With gold price of $450 or less, to produce gold, is consuming capital at an alarming rate. In the last few years, they let development slide, so have to catch up with development to get to the scopes to get the production they need. New management. Believes in management and the mine, but need a better gold price.
BUY
Good management with the ability to raise money. Spun part of the silver assets out.
BUY
Has the capacity of getting in the neighbourhood of 2 million ounces minimally. Great management team for a junior this size. 1st class operation.
BUY
(He owns over 10% of the company.) A really exciting play. Outstanding drill results.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick May 26/05. Up 28%.) A terribly misunderstood stock. A very large ore body.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick May 26/05. Up 18%.) Have a wonderful land package in Mali. An excellent stock at these prices.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick May 26/05. Up 2.4%.) Good management. Great suite of properties. Very cheap.
BUY
These kind of companies will do well if the gold price moves up sharply. They have already absorbed the huge rise in costs, what remains is the huge rise in the gold price. Their projects in Nicarauga and Costa Rica are both mediocre, but will be very profitable if the gold price unfolds the way he thinks it will. Very cheap.
WEAK BUY
If you look at their suite of assets, there isn't a company maker in the whole thing. They were hopeful that when they bought the other half of the project in Brazil, that it would be the one, but the Brazilian riel went way up in price. If the gold price goes up, people will go to this stock. Not one of his favourites.
WEAK BUY
Has been a huge disappointment, but has been disadvantaged by the low gold price and the strong Cdn$. Their costs exploded. Things are improving now that they have the shift in the mining technique changed.
HOLD
Will be used as one of the vehicles to consolidate the whole Cortez area. An area that's very interesting because there's a lot of prospective lands chopped up between companies.
HOLD
Likes this company. Chinese have taken a 20% interest which is significant. Also have a good play in Northern B.C.
