Gold, Bonds, and companies on our list making headlines – Pure Gold (PGM.V), Defense (DEFN.V), HighGold (HIGH.V), Cartier (ECR.V), Banyan (BYN.V), Forum (FMC.V), and Prime (PRYM.V)

Gold was dealt What For last week, taking out major support, trading at levels not seen in over eight months. The culprit of this recent carnage was a major sell-off in bonds pushing the yield on the US 10-year note to 1.5% (yields were a mere 0.5% only six months back). Though current yields represent […]

A Highballer roundup – Forum (FMC.V), Defense (DEFN.V), Harfang (HAR.V), Highgold (HIGH.V), Skeena (SKE.T) and Pure Gold (PGM.V)

The launch of Highballer back in early 2020 sprung from the belief that we’re in the early stages of a bull market in precious metals, base metals, battery metals, and all things mining—a bull run that will prove epic in scale. I’ve seen this movie before. It has a riveting plot. Bolstering that belief, central […]

The 1850 front line – updating Cartier (ECR.V), Forum (FMC.V), Pure Gold (PGM.V), Skeena (SKE.T), Harfang (HAR.V), and HighGold (HIGH.V)

$1,850 (blue line, chart below) is turning into a front line in the brawl between gold bulls and bears. After breaking through this key support level last week, the snap-back from the $1,767 low, anchored by a surfeit of compelling fundamentals, coincided with the U.S Dollar printing 2.5 year lows. Short term, the market is […]

Gold gets slammed, bargains emerge – HighGold (HIGH.V), Forum (FMC.V), Strategic (SMD.V), Kuya (KUYA.C), Nomad (NSR.T), and Skeena (SKE.T)

Gold is currently testing support at $1,800 (lower blue line) after crashing through support at $1,850. Current prices represent multi-month lows. If $1,800 doesn’t hold (that’s where the 200 SMA is at), $1,750 might be in the cards. Of course, this sudden price weakness might be a big-ass Bear Trap. If so, the metal should […]

Forum tees up Cu targets at Janice Lake, Skeena raises $40M, Cartier sets sights on high-grade Benoist project, Coral approves TO arrangement with Nomad, Pure Gold on the cusp of 1st gold pour, Banyan drops Powerline zone assays

The pace of exploration can test one’s patience. “Why can’t they just mobilize a damn rig to the property already?” is a question I get a lot. Companies helmed by disciplined geo-types will often pull out all the stops to increase the odds of discovery success. Prospective ground is scoured by map, by air… on […]
