A bit like the Oil Service stocks*. (I thought we would see a shift from selling to buying in NGD, because it was : Biggest Loser of 2018, among Gold Miners: -73%.) Many were Selling during December to lock in Tax Losses. That pressure ends completely in the new year. And those who sold earlier may re-enter the stock, locking in a tax loss, and to establish a new position at Lower cost. === *Update on Oil Service stocks: YE'18 : OIH ( $14.03 ) vs. Drillers: RDC ( $8.39 ), MDR ( $6.54 ), ESV ( $3.56).10d / 01/02: $14.37 +2.42% vs. Drillers: $8.74 +4.17%, $7.16 +9.48%, $3.73, +4.78% - "... poised?", I asked.

Silver rose 3.94%. That’s only about 14% better, but the point is that this pattern is the norm, not the exception, when precious metals are rising. The last time precious metals prices were really on a tear, silver outperformed gold even more: From the bottom of the crash of 2008, London PM gold rose from $713.50 to $1,895 in September of 2011. Gold was up 165.6%. From the same starting point, London PM silver rose from $8.88 to $48.70 in April of 2011. Silver was up 448.4%—and in less time. This is why I’ve said that if you’re a gold bull—which I am this year—you should be a raging silver bull." > https://www.kitco.com/commentaries/2019-02-08/Silver-Not-Just-the-Poor-Man-s-Gold.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
