John Newell: We Stand Near the Edge of the Precipice for a Terrific Move for Gold

John discusses the large six-year base that formed after gold reached $1900, which we finally overcame when we passed $1370. His current target for gold is $1690, which could happen quite quickly, and his best case for gold in this move is $2465. We could be on the precipice of a massive move.

John has found excellent returns with his portfolio by looking for particular stocks and themes in the market. In a general sense, the XAU index has vastly underperformed, but over its history, there have been some tremendous opportunities. Crypto and cannabis have taken money out of the sector, but he remains focused on the juniors.

He screens over 2500 companies and all of the indexes while looking for specific themes like expanding assets, mergers, takeovers, and property acquisitions. There are also earned successes from companies, which he calls the three E’s; expanding assets, earnings, and exploration success. It’s a very individual decision about when to trade or sell companies. Every company has a different outlook, and he looks at each separately.

He likes to watch the Dow Jones Gold Index because it has a different makeup, and it is currently outperforming surpassing it’s 2015 highs. As a group, the juniors are lagging behind gold, and investors continue to need the patience to hold on.

He is President and CEO of Luckystrike Resources Ltd in the Yukon, and they are seeking a multi-million-ounce deposit and desire to monetize those assets in the next six years. They are focused on creating wealth for shareholders in a world-class mining jurisdiction. Exploration is the lifeblood of the mining business, and his objective is to build a very experienced team.
