“After metals prices have recovered, people will realize that mining stocks have been driven down to generational lows and money will rapidly flow back into the juniors.”

Stephan Bogner: “The share price for a small exploration company with great drill results will rise even if gold is in a bear market.”

Something’s got to give in precious metals. In the long run, companies can’t sell gold for less than it costs to take it out of the ground.

“If the gold price starts moving upward on a continuing basis, and I believe that will happen within the next year, the performance of junior exploration equities will revert.”

Ian Gordon: “When you get this overly bearishness in markets, it’s usually indicative of a turn. I’m confident that we’re going to see a turn to the upside.”

Chen Lin focuses on miners that can be self-funding and do not need to come to the market to issue shares that dilute existing shareholders.

It’s a jungle out in the silver markets. Investors are holding on for their lives as the price of metals swings to higher highs and lower lows and junior equities bounce along the bottom.

Ted Dixon of INK Research: “As we go through bouts of selloff in the sector, insider activity within the junior miners tends to pick up.”
