‘Uncharted waters’ is perhaps the best characterization of the environment we’re currently in as the biggest bank failure in nearly 15 years rattles the global economic landscape. Markets are now sizing up the potential fallout from the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank (and Signature Bank). To help settle rattled nerves, and to prevent an all-out […]

Trading activity in the broader markets has everyone on edge. The S&P 500 index is currently testing its mid-June lows. A decisive break below this level could usher in further carnage, with many analysts in the bear-camp calling for a protracted downward spiral. Dow Theory Sell Signal Triggered I’ve stressed the significance of the 200-period […]

A Midsummer Highballer Update Part 2 – Apollo Silver (APGO.V), Forum Energy Metals (FMC.V), Teuton Resources (TUO.V), Optimum Ventures (OPV.V), Patriot Battery Metals (PMET.V), and a new name
At Jackson Hole late last week, Fed chair Jerome Powell stated that the U.S. economy would need tight monetary policy “for some time” before inflation is reined in. Translation: expect more Fed bullying tactics, which means slower growth, a weaker job market, and “some pain” for many Americans. The duration of the Fed’s aggressive rate […]

Catching up with Apollo Silver (APGO.V) and Forum Energy Metals (FMC.V)
To say that the market has been exacting a certain toll on the junior exploration arena would be a colossal understatement. Even the highest quality asset-rich entities are being stripped down to levels that defy logic. This current environment reminds me of the junior sector at the beginning of the previous bull run earlier this […]

Apollo Silver (APGO.V) and Forum Energy Metals (FMC.V) – A Highballer Update
There’s been some rather extreme volatility and negative sentiment at play where global markets are concerned. With sentiment in the gutter and stocks getting hammered across the board, some market analysts believe we’re near a bottom and are trotting out the C Word – Capitulation. I suppose it makes sense in certain respects. But in […]

Updating Apollo Silver (APGO.V) and Patriot Battery Metals (PMET.V)
The volatility rages on across all market sectors (Gold and Silver are off nearly 3% as I edit this piece). With the Fed set to deliver a half-point rate increase after their two-day meeting on the 3rd and 4th, expect that volatility to continue and perhaps ramp up even further. The next five days of […]

Apollo (APGO.V) declares a 166 million oz silver resource at its flagship Calico Project in San Bernardino County, California
The recent smackdown notwithstanding, precious metals continue demonstrating price strength as investors set their sights on safe-haven assets. Inflation is running way hot, hitting a 40-year high of 7.5%, and tensions along the border of Russia and Ukraine have the world on edge. The combination of high inflation, accelerating geopolitical uncertainty, volatility in general equities, […]

A new addition to the Highballer list – Apollo Silver (APGO.V)
Precious metals have gone on a serious tear in recent sessions, led by silver. This sector is marked by a seemingly endless series of bull traps. A successful test of the $25.00 level would add validity to this move. The fundamentals underpinning firmer metals prices are obvious—debt levels that have taken on a surreal quality, […]
