Four Gold Miners with Big Upside

Gold miners are drifting lower as interest rates on 20 & 30-year treasuries, move higher.  We like these four Gold miners and think they are cheap protection should the market fall as well as just too cheap a valuation.

Interest rates have a direct impact on stock valuation metrics and on gold pricing. In a previous email we shared the correlation between TBT and GDX, the VanEck Gold Miners ETF. The correlation is spooky close – almost as if algos are programed to mirror the activity of TBT in an inverse way. Continue reading
