Gold has surged to new all-time highs, defying expectations amidst a robust U.S. economy and soaring stock market trading near all highs

Newmont’s 4.7% forward dividend yield and depressed stock price have presented a shiny opportunity for income investors.

In volatile economic conditions, smart money seeks stability and moves to safe havens. Historically, one of the safest places and most stable spaces during economic uncertainty is gold, a highly liquid asset that preserves and even increases in value over time and carries no credit risk. The precious metal benefits from multiple levers of demand such as gold jewelry, tech/industrial use and a reserve asset as well as a strategic investment. History has shown that gold’s variable demand pressures enhance a portfolio by improving diversification, providing liquidity and delivering long-term returns. Reacting to uncertainties, many gold mining companies, including GEMXX Corp. (OTC: GEMZ) ( Profile ), have enjoyed significant growth during the recent volatility. Exploding past startup phase and achieving global growth in mere months, GEMXX is fast approaching a holy grail that differentiates GEMXX from all others in the gold space – a vertically integrated mining company – a unique mine-to-market enterprise that specializes in gold and gemstone mining as well as jewelry creation, production and global sales. GEMXX owns and controls every aspect of the process from gold mining and gemstone finishing to jewelry manufacturing and global distribution. Other larger mining companies may not have the unique vertical integration of GEMXX but are still seeing success in the precious metal sector including Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. (NYSE: AEM) , which recently reported record second-quarter numbers; Barrick Gold (NYSE: GOLD) , which anticipates a second half of the year performance that surpasses its first; Newmont Mining (NYSE: NEM) , which has received required approvals on a key acquisition announced earlier this year; and Franco-Nevada Corp. (NYSE: FNV) , which has established a business model that provides investors with gold price and exploration optionality while limiting exposure to cost inflation.

Palm Beach, FL – September 21, 2021 – FinancialNewsMedia.com News Commentary – Experts who follow Gold see more room for it to rise in both the short and long terms.

Palm Beach, FL – June 29, 2021 – Despite its recent slowdown, many analysts still see many reasons while Gold with not only stabilize but that it will indeed continue to rise.

Palm Beach, FL – June 23, 2021 – According to some gold professionals there are many benefits to buying gold stocks instead of the physical metal. The main draw is that these companies offer the potential of leveraged upside to the price of gold. When prices rise, these companies can increase their gold production and grow their total sales. Gold stocks are the publicly trading stocks of companies and funds focused on gold. The industry mainly comprises mining companies that dig up and sell gold. But it also includes gold streaming and royalty companies, which act as middlemen in the sector. These companies pay an up-front fee to a mining company in exchange for a percentage of the mine’s revenue or the right to purchase its future production at a fixed cost. Finally, gold investors can also purchase shares in gold-focused exchange-traded funds (ETF), which hold either physical gold or shares of mining companies.  Buying and selling physical gold in any form — bars, coins, medals, or even jewelry — is the most direct way to participate in the gold market. However, buying physical gold also means you have to pay relatively high commissions due to the market being less liquid than the stock market and also bear additional costs and risks related to the transportation, storage, and insurance of the precious metal.  An article in Motley Fool spoke to this issue saying: “Gold stocks – especially gold streaming stocks offer the highest return potential among gold investment options because, in theory, a company’s share price should eventually reflect its operational and financial growth. That means that shares of a fundamentally strong gold company that’s maximizing returns on invested capital and is committed to shareholders can earn strong returns for investors, even in low-price environments for gold. Of course, investing in stocks is itself risky, and gold stocks are no different.    Active stocks in the mining markets this week include Golden Independence Mining Corp.

Palm Beach, FL – June 16, 2021 – Gold plays a unique and vital role in the world eco system. According to the World Gold Council, the annual volume of gold production has tripled every year since the early 1970s. There are several common factors that drive the gold market globally including Demand and Supply, Central bank policies and World Economic data. Gold is used in multiple human aspects like Jewelry, Technology, Investment assets etc.  Gold is having multiyear bull rally and the price of gold has risen from around $43 per ounce in 1972, to a price of over $2000 in year 2020.  There are multiple reasons behind the fall in Gold prices. The rise in dollar index is one of the major reasons accounting for this fall. The newly formed Biden government in US is providing large stimulus measures which are further slumping the gold price.  Apart from these, the US Treasury yields and the recent climb in equities toward the all-time closing high, has further weighed down gold prices. Hedge fund and many investors have exited their positions in Gold to chase crypto currency which is having a marvelous run in recent times.   Active stocks in the mining markets this week Clarity Gold Corp.

Palm Beach, FL – May 25, 2021-  Many investors turn to gold during times of global crisis, and that is exactly what has happened this last year, during the pandemic. But experts say that smart investors should be looking at silver. A report from the Silver Institute (in collaboration with industry insider Metals Focus) says that silver will outshine gold as demand hits 8-year high in 2021. An article in Reuters discussing the subject said that the global demand for silver will rise to 1.025 billion ounces in 2021, its highest in eight years, as investors and industry ramp up purchases, the Silver Institute said on Wednesday, predicting that prices would rise.  The article reported that: “The coronavirus outbreak triggered a rush among investors to stockpile silver, which like gold is traditionally seen as a safe place to store money. That impetus will continue, the institute said, predicting purchases of bars and coins would rise to a six-year high of 257 million ounces in 2021.”  It did not give a forecast for exchange traded funds (ETFs) storing silver bars for larger investors, but these have grown strongly so far this year, helping push prices to an eight year high of $30.03 an ounce on Feb. 1.     Active mining stocks mentioned in today’s commentary include:  Ridgestone Mining Inc. (OTCQB: RIGMF) (TSX-V: RMI Wheaton Precious Metals Corp. (NYSE: WPM) (TSX:WPM), Barrick Gold Corporation (NYSE: GOLD) (TSX: ABX), Newmont Corporation (NYSE:NEM) (TSX:NGT), Franco-Nevada Corporation (NYSE:FNV) (TSX: FNV).

Palm Beach, FL – April 14, 2021 – Gold has again risen to all-time highs because investors have again rushed to its traditional ‘safe haven’. It rises not despite the pandemic… but because of the global crisis. The trading price is predicted by many to continue to soar and miners are also looking to increase production. A report from Singapore Bullion Market Association, spoke about the Metals Report issued in London which said: “Turning to 2021, Metals Focus remains bullish towards gold. We are confident that as policy rates remain low and fiscal spending persists, inflows of institutional money into the yellow metal will continue. Low rates and yields are typically positive for gold, as they minimize the opportunity cost of holding the zero-yielding metal. Moreover, given exceptionally low yields (or, in other words, high bond prices), the effectiveness of bonds as a hedge against market turmoil, and in particular equity market corrections, is hampered as it becomes harder to see yields fall much more. This forces investors towards other portfolio diversifiers, something that should continue to benefit gold. Related to this point, policy accommodation has resulted in exceptionally strong equity market performance. While this has been a boon for investors, it also amplifies their need to diversify portfolios and gold will remain an instrument to do so.”  Active stocks in the mining markets this week include Calibre Mining Corp. (OTCQX: CXBMF) (TSX: CXB), Franco-Nevada Corporation (NYSE: FNV) (TSX: FNV), Lundin Mining Corporation (TSX: LUN) (OTCPK: LUNMF), Endeavour Mining Corporation (TSX: EDV) (OTCQX: EDVMF), First Majestic Silver Corp.
