This is a quick update. As many of you are aware, one of the companies in my Top Three Picks for 2020—Coral Gold Resources (CLH.V)—just got taken out by a bigger fish, one Nomad Royalty Company (NSR.T).

I launched Highballerstocks on January 15, 2020, to take advantage of what I believed was the beginning of an epic […]

A new addition to the Highballer shortlist – Minnova Corp (MCI.V) – also Forum (FMC.V), Strategic (SMD.V), and PureGold (PGM.V)
The plot thickens. Gold, in US dollar terms, tagged all-time historic highs last week, registering a monthly close on the charts that has a universe of traders looking in. Some say prices are overheating. Some believe the $2000 level will generate an impulsive round of profit-taking. Some, including me, think calling the short-term moves in […]

Cartier (ECR.V) looks to monetize flagship gold asset, sets stage for aggressive drilling campaign at Benoist project
Here’s the thing… every day that a gold miner digs ore out of the ground—every day the company is in business—they reduce their metal inventory. For companies that produce millions of ounces of gold annually, adding to reserves—replacing these ounces—requires a steady stream of new discoveries.

An eventful week for the Highballer (shortlist) portfolio – Cartier, HighGold, Pure Gold, Skeena, and Strategic
Last week was a busy one for the metals—gold and silver—and a good number of the companies that populate the Highballer (shortlist) portfolio.

Two highly anticipated drilling campaigns commence – HighGold Mining (HIGH.V) and White Gold (WGO.V)
There are a number of tiny-cap ExploreCos in the junior exploration arena that have put on quite a show of late, doubling or tripling, carrying their market caps from sub-$5M to $10M-plus in the space of only a few weeks. These bottom-of-the-food-chain stocks score heaps of appeal among retail investors: they’re cheap, they’re liquid, and […]

Companies on the Highballer shortlist pushing higher, driving shareholder value – Coral (CLH.V), HighGold (HIGH.V), Pure gold (PGM.V), Strategic (SMD.V), Forum (FMC.V)
Here’s a quick review of some of the names on the Highballer shortlist making news and-or generating significant share price trajectory. Gold is currently pushing $1,790 overseas as I type. A breakout above $1,800 appears inevitable, but don’t rule out further consolidation or weakness before it launches higher. Coral Gold (CLH.V)… Coral doesn’t generate much […]

Catching up with Philippe Cloutier, CEO Cartier Resources (ECR.V)
Cartier Resources (ECR.V) is no stranger to these pages. I shortlisted the company at the beginning of 2020 in my maiden Highballer report—Highballer’s Top Three Picks for 2020. The stock was a no-brainer for a shortlist candidate. Its price trajectory over the past few months has demonstrated good, steady, stair-stepping accumulation. For those of you […]
