Kirkland Lake Gold has been one of the biggest winners over the past 5yrs, propelling itself from a 160k oz.

Silver & Gold Summer Doldrums 3

July 04, 2020
By Adam Hamilton, Zeal Research, Zeal LLC

This silver-summer-seasonals methodology is the same as gold’s, showing how it has fared during gold’s modern bull-market years. With a far-smaller global market, silver is much-more volatile than gold. So its center-mass summer drift is wider, running +/-10% from May’s final close. That implies a summer range between $16.04 to $19.60 this year. But silver’s summer seasonals have proven weaker overall than gold’s. Silver’s summer-doldrums seasonal low tends to arrive a couple weeks after…

Gold & Silver Seeker Report: This Week in Mining Issue #20: Gold crosses $1,800/oz But Can It Maintain Momentum?

July 03, 2020
By Chris Marchese, Chief Mining Analyst, SilverSeek

Gold had a decent week, crossing $1,800/oz. then backing down. But can it maintain momentum and convincingly pass that level? It seems like some consolidation is is in order for the metal(s) and mining stocks. Whether or not that takes places from a higher level remains to be seen, but be prepared for a pullback. Regardless, unlike the most industries in the world where companies are struggling to maintain past levels of profitability, the gold miners are seeing a great margin expansion and…

Gold & Silver Seeker Report: This Week in Mining Issue #19: Gold Holding Strong, Drill Results, Royalties & Streams

June 26, 2020
By Chris Marchese, Chief Mining Analyst, SilverSeek

With the gold price refusing to be knocked down below the $1,700/oz. level, it finished the weak above $1,750 [spot] and looks to be building a base, readying for its next leg higher. With continued monetary and fiscal malfeasance, showing no signs of abating anytime soon, it Is only a matter of time until new all-time highs in gold are reached. This will bode very well for the mining stocks. The trend higher is intact but the complex should get a boost once Q3 earnings are released, as most…

Gold & Silver Seeker Report: This Week in Mining Issue #18: Will Gold Finally Break Resistance? and Another Bidding War

June 19, 2020
By Chris Marchese, Chief Mining Analyst, SilverSeek

With National debt now well passed $26T and total debt pushing $80T (public & private) and the massive monetary inflation (not consumer Price inflation) that has taken place over the 3-months, gold should be well past $2k/oz. Unlike 2008, all this inflation won't simply be more or less idle in bank reserves [notably excess reserves] or show up primarily in asset prices, rather a significant amount was helicopter money, which will work its way into consumer prices rather quickly. For a lack of a…

Gold & Silver Seeker Report: This Week in Mining Issue #17: Consolidation Continues & More Monetary Shenanigans

June 12, 2020
By Chris Marchese, Chief Mining Analyst, SilverSeek

“We’re not even thinking about thinking about raising rates,” - Powell. This says it all as the chairman made it clear the Federal Reserve will provide the most conducive environment to drive precious metals higher. The Fed will continue its massive asset purchase program, instead of tapering it off. This is the perfect storm to drive precious metals higher and in turn related mining equities. However, this doesn't mean we won't see a more substantial pullback in the metals in the near-term.
