Just a quick note tonight relating to gold, silver, and precious metals mining stocks.
Unlike the average U.S. stock, which has mostly posted a stellar gain this year so far, precious metals in general and related mining stocks in particular have been miserable holdings for investors, especially since their 2019 intra-day highs as posted on February 20th. Since that key date, the benchmark gold ETF (symbol GLD) is down 5.8%. The benchmark silver ETF (symbol SLV) is down 11.4%. While these red numbers clearly stand out in the sea of green posted by the average U.S. stock this year, the investment returns for gold and silver mining shares are even worse. The Junior Gold Stock ETF (symbol GDXJ) is actually down 19.5% since its intra-day high on February 20th to this morning's intra-day low. And the Silver Mining Stock ETF (symbol SIL) posted a staggering 20.9% loss for this same period.
Is there any hope for this crippled sector right now? The answer may very well be a strong YES!
