Continued Muted Moves For The Metals

Cory
March 14, 2018

Brien Lundin joins me today to look at the metals markets and what could drive prices. It seems not just the gold bugs are waiting for a break in price to make the sector more enticing. Volumes remain low and even when we have news events that drive other markets the metals don’t move to any significance up or down.

    US Uranium Producers Expand Opportunities
    14 March 2018

    ” (AEC) (ANLDF) Anfield Energy Inc has agreed to acquire the Charlie in-situ leach (ISL) uranium project in Wyoming from Cotter Corp, as part of a strategy to create a mine and mill production complex in the state. Meanwhile, (UUUU) (EFR) Energy Fuels Inc is pursuing opportunities to process new and additional alternate feed sources in order to allow the USA’s only operating conventional uranium mill to extend its current operating campaign.”

    Good thoughts from Eric Coffin on the Zinc market and Vendetta MIning:

    @HRA-Coffin – “That’s true but it’s important (I think anyway) for us to focus on value. Its hard, or seems to be hard, to get across just how unique a situation an open pittable -with big strip ratios, admittedly, but still – resource in this location that mostly lies on an already permitted mining lease really is.”

    ” I’ve said since day one that $VTT is the only situation I see with a realistic shot at producing metal during this lead/zinc cycle. Yeah, the zinc price has dropped back to $1.45, but Pegmont, in its current form, would make sense at $1.00 zinc and at $1.45 zinc and $1.15 lead it would make a TONNE of money. I think the companies in the area all think they are the only ones looking. I’ve had a couple of recent meetings with management and agree with them that once the next resource is out they need to open a data room and make sure all these surrounding companies know there is competition and that they won’t get to just sit back and wait for VTT to de-risk everything. If they don’t make a bid, someone else will.”

    I see KWN is at it again with their eternal hopeful exuberance, If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a thousand times: these PM markets aren’t ready to take off in the near future. All one has to do is understand TA and it’s pretty obvious–we’re in a waiting mode and will be in it for the foreseeable future. Will it happen? YES. Will it happen in the next few weeks. NO.

      Mar 14, 2018 14:25 PM

      Agreed Doc. I’m looking for opportunities to shuffle things around and add to positions during the Summer Doldrums. There were just a couple of interesting points in that KWN article so I figured it would be nice to post and let readers decide for themselves what to marinate on. Cheers!

        Having said that, I am prepared for a short-duration rally after the March rate hike by the Fed. A nice tradable rally, which should give the miners a little nudge higher.

    Agreed as well Doc. The metals are going nowhere of significance to the upside in the near term.

    An ongoing bear market, an early bull market, call it what you will, the metals ARE muted! It is what it is – frustrating!

      Check out the video posted above from IGold advisor where he discusses the big wedge forming on the Silver chart. It will keep whipsawing in a tighter range (boring investors to no end) but then all that pent up energy will ignite a large move breakout or breakdown. Based on the longer term charts, and the fact that we are ended the Bear market in Dec 2015, then the move should be to the upside.
