Michael Belkin – Outlook on Gold Stocks and Market Divergence

Cory
April 23, 2025

 

Michael Belkin, a long-time market strategist and editor of the Belkin Report and Belkin Gold Stock Forecast, joins us for an in-depth conversation on why gold and gold stocks may be the last assets standing in an increasingly volatile and overvalued global market.

 

In this interview, Michael shares his evolving thesis since our last discussion in February, highlighting a parabolic move in gold, growing central bank demand, and how the supposed “most crowded trade”, as labeled in the recent Bank of America Global Fund Managers Survey, is still largely under-owned by institutional investors.

 

Key Topics Discussed:

 

  • Why the “crowded trade” label on gold may be misleading – and actually bullish.

  • How central banks are steadily de-dollarizing and reallocating into gold.

  • The disconnect between rising gold prices and underperforming gold equities.

  • Top stock picks: Newmont (NEM), Kinross (KGC), Iamgold (IAG), Harmony Gold (HMY), and B2Gold (BTG).

  • Michael’s silver favorites: First Majestic (AG) and Endeavour Silver (EXK).

  • Whether generalist fund managers will be forced into large-cap gold stocks as earnings surge.

  • A bleak outlook for global equities, AI bubble stocks like Nvidia, and international markets like the DAX and China’s FXI.

  • Why gold equities may diverge positively from the broader market even in a downturn.

    It’s a great sign for the whole sector that NEM looks so good and has so much upside.

      The potential from here is massive.

      Wow! That monthly NEM chart has formed a big head and shoulders bottom. A couple of months ago when NEM was 37, I commented to Don Durrett that NEM looked awfully cheap, and he said that he thought NEM was a 5 bagger with 4K gold. Pierre Lassonde also says that NEM is the only gold stock in the S&P 500 and will be very popular with fund managers in a gold bull market. And now Belkin says he likes it too. If Rambus is right about gold going to 12K in 2033 how high will NEM go? I never bought any NEM but after they took over my old FNV, my GG, and my Newcrest in stock transactions it is one of my biggest holdings and my cost is 15. But I bought AEM@8 long ago and it is up 15 fold.
      When I bought AEM@8 I also bought Barrick @18 and it has gone nowhere.

        Newmont’s all-time high was .1073 ounces of gold in 1996. At the current gold price of $3370 that’s over $360. Using gold’s recent high of $3500 Newmont’s high is equal to over $375.
