Silver – Bottom or Bear Flag?

Cory
December 4, 2018

When looking at the silver chart there are two different scenarios that could play out. The bullish scenario is that the metal is forming a double bottom from the December 2016 lows. The bearish scenario is that a bearish declining wedge and bear flag is forming. David Erfle, Founder of The Junior Miner Junky joins me to outline this set up. He also compares the 20 year silver chart to the 2 year bitcoin chart, there are a lot of similarities.

    I am trading NUGT and JDST and they both are stopped dead in the water. No volume. What’s up with the lock up in miners today?

    David you are one of only a few people to say The FED has to raise interest rate, re Pensions Funds. ZIRP is a huge problem for them

    I posted this last week, but there are still a few Silver miners that will make money at current prices with Silvercorp being the standout in the sector:

    (SVM) Silvercorp is still making money at current prices and is the lowest cost Silver equivalent ounce producer due to their large Zinc & Lead co-credits. I expect them to still keep blazing on as well, and if the metals prices move up for Silver, or Zinc & Lead, then I could see them just taking over (NUAG) New Pacific Metals.

      Most companies should be envious of such good profit margins at SVM. They don’t do a lot of marketing or fanfare or newsletter writer hype, but they deliver quarter after quarter.

        Also, as (USAS) (USA) reduces costs on Silver equivalent ounces, using their large Zinc & Lead credits, they’ll be bringing their AISC down to around $4-$6 over the next few quarters, so they’ll be doing fine at $14 Silver, and they are currently plowing revenues into their acquisition of Pershing Gold, but will also be announcing a financing soon to fast-track that Relief Canyon deposit into production.

        ______________________________________________

        “The fourth quarter of 2018 started on a strong note as the Company produced approximately 600,000 consolidated silver equivalent ounces in October from its operations making October the best month so far this year. The San Rafael mine led the way as mill throughput steadily increased through the month to over 1,700 tonnes per day with this consistent performance continuing into November. The strong showing combined with steady performance from Galena have the Company on-track for its best production quarter for the year.”

        “The Company is in discussions with numerous interested parties on the financing of the Relief Canyon project. An update will be provided to the market as to the status of the financing process following the close of the transaction in January 2019. The Company expects to have sufficient funding to support the newly-merged company through to the completion of the Relief Canyon financing.”
