They had operational problems in Mexico, but they remain a major silver and gold producer. They just took over the Latin American operations of Yamana in tandem with Agnico; this will double their gold production. They have a warrant to reopen a mine in Guatemala, and might reopen. Gold and silver is the place to be.
If central banks continue to print money, bodes well for hard assets. Gold is trending higher again, a hedge against inflation. Jury is still out, as we don't have runaway inflation. He isn't saying there will be, but there is a risk. Fed is willing to let inflation run hot. Don't have all your money in gold, but a percentage in gold or the precious metals (miners) does make sense. He owns Kirkland Lake and Pan American Silver. These two are the top miners based on his metrics.
Has recommended it before. Even though it's doubled, it still holds value because of a new discovery in a Mexican silver mine. It's the second-biggest silver miner in the world. If they can re-open a Guatemalan mine, it would double their production. They're raising their dividend. (Analysts’ price target is $34.54)
Likes silver at these prices, so the question is, what would be a good silver company to pick up. He does almost all of his buying at the end of the year, so he won’t be looking at this now. The name has a lot going for it. Pretty clean in terms of the financial statements. If silver goes up this can do better. The all-in price that they mine at is pretty reasonable. This has quite a bit of potential and has good properties.
