In early October, there was evidence that an important bottom was forming in the precious metals arena. The following excerpts are from a (timely) article I put up on the Equity Guru website on October 4th—Unabated selling, dry powder, the upside of buying when you’re the only bidder in the room… (click on the following […]

A Highballer roundup featuring Forum (FMC.V), HighGold (HIGH.V), Prime (PRYM.V), Skyharbour (SYH.V), Sokoman (SIC.V), and Defense (DEFN.V)
As the reality that inflation is not as “transitory” as the Fed would have us believe kicks in—though chairman Powell now concedes that it will likely be more “persistent” than previously thought—some are calling for violence in the gold arena. An October 22nd Bloomberg headline… Gold’s Inflation-Haven Appeal Means ‘Violent’ Run-Up May Be Ahead We’ve […]

We’re a few hours away from the conclusion of a two-day Fed meeting. Better than expected retail sales last week (the retail sector currently accounts for two-thirds of the GDP in the U.S.) might’ve turned the Fed hawkish. We’ll find out when Chairman Powell steps up to the mic. Talk of tapering its $120 billion-a-month […]

Uranium. It’s all the rage right now. Sentiment in the uranium arena is turning altogether positive with spot prices tagging multi-year highs at $39 per pound in recent sessions. The Sprott Physical Uranium Trust, which made its debut on the TSX earlier this summer, invests in physical uranium. According to Sprott’s updates on Twitter, the fund […]

If you’re inclined to wager bets in this high-risk/high-reward arena, I don’t need to tell you how compelling the current set-up is for medium to long-term (high-quality) exploration and development plays. And the potential is not just in gold and silver—it runs the (metals) gamut. It’s fair to say that, as a society, we’ve been […]
A Highballer update for August 2, 2022 – Is It Go Time?
The last few weeks have been hectic. In the wake of last week’s .75% rate hike, gold formed a higher low on the charts. But will it stick? If the Fed’s bullying tactics towards the inflationary spiral have run their course—if they’ve exacted enough shock value via these high-handed three-quarter-point rate hikes—it could be game […]

An October 4th roundup I published over at Equity Guru—Unabated selling, dry powder, the upside of buying when you’re the only bidder in the room…—generated a fair amount of positive feedback: The above tweet is courtesy of Blackrock Silver‘s CEO, Andrew Pollard. Blackrock is a Nevada-based explorer/developer currently active with four drill rigs in a […]
Sokoman Minerals (SIC.V) – a well positioned player with >150k highly prospective hectares in Central Newfoundland
When I first launched Highballer stocks in January of 2020, I wanted to highlight the re-rating potential I felt existed in the junior exploration arena. The companies I first featured—those with meaningful ounces in the ground—were trading at what I considered to be absurd valuations. The timing was good. Many of the companies I introduced […]
Forum Energy Metals (FMC.V) drills wholly-owned Love Lake project in mining-friendly Saskatchewan
I’m looking to shake things up a bit here at Highballer. I’ve been thinking long and hard and I’ve decided to cover certain highly speculative companies in the pre-discovery phase of their cycles, and those following up on new discoveries with aggressive drill campaigns. The goal is to deliver a more dynamic, broad-ranging read (I […]
