Silver

After three years of pain, can gold stocks break their losing streak and see a gain in 2014? History says the chances are good. Here's why that is the case.

In the last several months, the world economic crisis has entered a new elevated level of perma-crisis and constant tension, widely recognized as something more serious, more dangerous, and more risk-filled. This new normal is neither without resolution nor the attempt to resolve anything and, as such, is why the price of gold will rise to $5,000 per troy ounce, then higher, and at the same time, the silver price will rise multiples higher. Let me explain.

We are near a low in gold and resource shares and, over the next few years, fortunes will be made by those investors staying the course and remaining committed to this investment sector. As Rick Rule says, “you have stayed for the pain, will you not stay for the gain?”

We all think the price of gold, the metal, is depressed and is about equal to the total cost of production but when one compares the price of precious metals mining companies to the price of gold bullion, their prices are at historical lows. It seems that the mining shares can only go in one direction...up...but when and by how much? This article suggests it presents the greatest opportunity in 30 years. Look at the charts! Absolutely unbelievable.

Investing in natural resources and precious metals is attractive today because the sector is so much cheaper than it was three years ago. Many of the stocks are trading at a 90 percent discount to their prices in 2011. For a contrarian investor, I believe that we are seeing a historic opportunity now.

Tell us where in the charts below there are any indications that the “true” value for gold should be in the $5,000 – $10,000 per troy ounce range, or silver in the $100 – $300 range. If you see extraordinary bullish signs within them, let us know, because we certainly keep looking and cannot find any needle in these “haystack” charts!

History is testament that there exists monumental probability (76% to 100%) that 2014-2016 will witness impressive gains for Gold, Silver and Precious Metal Equities…across the board. Below are charts of 8 different forms of precious metals assets that show that Golden Crosses are a fait accompli or are about to experience imminent completion thus heralding an immediate new Bull Market and that the forth-coming secular bull markets in all forms of precious metals may well far surpass the forecasts herein stated. The focus of the following analysis is to prove the predictable accuracy and timing of the The Golden Cross.

Silver has moved above its 200-day moving average which is a signal for silver prices to challenge the $50 area, overcome it and then traverse ‘blue sky country’ to target the upper trendline shown in the chart shown below.

People are focusing on the price of PMs, treating gold and silver as vehicles for increasing in price relative to their cost of purchase and not on the reality of what the artificially suppressed market is showing. It is the reason for buying and holding gold and silver that matters. Know this: It does not matter what you pay/paid for owning physical gold and silver. Price is temporary; physical is permanent. That being said, however, a red flag is in currently in effect regarding gold & silver. Below I explain why.

Over the next couple of months everything should generally rise together but once the dollar puts in an intermediate bottom sometime in March or April, commodities and gold will move down into an intermediate correction as the stock market completes its final blow off top. After the stock market parabola collapses later this summer it will be time to put the pedal to the metal in the commodity markets, and especially the precious metal markets as the Great Inflation begins in earnest.
