Dear Members,
Since
March of last year, when all hell broke loose and the markets were at its
lowest point, we were talking up precious metals stocks (see Playing Ball With Resources).
Now
things have not only turned a complete 180, but are continuing to push with
"rock" solid momentum.
As
mentioned in our last edition (see The Tip of the Iceberg), even our most recently featured
silver junior climbed over 90% in just a few short months after our coverage.
It still trades significantly higher than where it was when we issued our
report back in November of 2009.
With
the major boom in the commodities and precious metals sector, it's becoming
more difficult to find great juniors that haven't already made a huge jump
in share value - especially in the junior silver market.
But
there is good news...and bad news.
Good
news is, we fully expect the silver market to run higher - much higher - over
the coming months and years.
Bad
news is, the silver junior market just isn't very big.
In
such a small crowded market, it has become much more difficult to find unique
stories that investors don't already know. Everyone is looking for that silver
junior with great assets with blue sky potential and true near-term
production capabilities.
And
we're not using the term "near-term" lightly.
We're talking within
the next 6-12 months.
The
share price of many silver juniors that fit those criteria have been pushed up
dramatically by investors through bidding wars in the open market. With such a
crowded scene and share prices at near 52-week highs, is there still room for
growth? What's the upside and downside risk?
The
fact is, great companies in the silver market are hard to find.
So
how do we find our next featured company?
Our key was to find a company that is not only under the radar, but also in
its earliest stages. With very few silver juniors out there, this was not an
easy task.
But we found one. Next week, you're going to find out just why the retail market hasn't caught wind of this one.
This company somehow
managed to get a deal on a property in an area that many in the silver market
have been fighting over. Not only that, they were able to
pick up 80% of this past-producing high-grade silver property for just over
$200,000, very few shares, and some work obligations.
To paint a bigger picture, $12 million has recently been spent defining
the resource for today's 43-101 standards and bringing the mine back to life. It sits directly in
between two mines that have produced close to 500 million ounces of silver and has historical (non 43-101 compliant) reserves - not just resources (see Taking the Next Step).
It is fully permitted and in one of the world's
most politically sound regions.
How
this company got such a deal, we have no idea. But we do know the significance
of this project for those in the surrounding area - as you will soon find out
next week.
For all of those who think this is just another property play, think again.
This
company also made close to $16 million last year - and was profitable!
How
many junior companies can say that before production?
When
you combine their revenue, their property, their potential for a significant increase in resources, and an anticipated production date starting in Q1 of 2011, you can see why we are looking at this company.
Wait
till you hear what their current market cap is.
As
we have said before, the best times for juniors is either before discoveries or before production begins...
Until next week,
Questions?

 One for
All and All for... Myself
Why you shouldn't believe OPEC
By Marin Katusa, Senior Editor, Casey's Energy Opportunities
In December 2008, after OPEC warned of "substantial cutbacks," I voiced
my strong opinion that the members of the Dirty Dozen would cheat,
because cartels always cheat. Sure enough, despite all the talk about
production cutbacks, even more oil flowed out of OPEC.
The
harsh truth is that the whole honor and brotherhood thing may work for
the Three Musketeers, but it's a non-starter when, like the OPEC
members, you have to foot the bill for hefty social programs.
On April 19, the Algerian energy minister said that OPEC would probably
do nothing to restrain rising oil prices, despite concerns that
persistently high energy costs would hurt the fledgling global economic
recovery.
Take his comments with a pinch of salt.
With OPEC members currently violating production quotas at the same time
that demand from industrialized nations is stagnating, our bet is that
the 13-month rally in crude will soon come to an end and prices begin
to fall over the next month.
What does this mean for
investors? For reasons I'll explain, get your dancing shoes on - the
profit party is about to begin.
Prisoner's Dilemma:
Why Do Cartels Cheat?
Imagine you and an accomplice
have been arrested for a crime that you did commit. The police lock you
up in separate rooms and take their time in talking with you.
While you're nervously waiting for the interrogator to arrive, you
wonder what's going on with your accomplice. Is he or she spilling the
beans and sacrificing you in order to save their own skin? Or are they
sticking to the prearranged story?
When your interrogator
finally arrives, you realize your options boil down to these:
1. You
can either confess to the crime before your partner does and go free.
2.You can remain silent (and pray like mad that your accomplice
does too), and you'll both get a more modest punishment.
3.You can wait until your accomplice confesses everything before you do,
in which case they'll go free while you'll go to prison for years.
Now, if you trust your accomplice completely and they you, you
know both of you are going to keep your mouth shut because all you'll
probably get is a slap on the wrist.
But what if the person
in the other room is Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, or Venezuelan
president Hugo Chavez, or Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad? Would
you really trust any of them to put the interests of the group ahead of
their personal self-interest?
Many readers will recognize this as the
classic Prisoner's Dilemma, but it is equally applicable to the
situation in today's global oil politics. Especially in that,
regardless of what your accomplice does, you're always better off
betraying them.
Which is why when a cartel like OPEC sets an
artificially high price by restricting the supply of a commodity, each
member of the cartel always has an incentive to cheat. By offering the
commodity at a slightly lower price, just one member of the cartel can
attract all the customers and enhance their profit.
And if
you're Hugo Chavez and have quite a few expenditures to meet, these
profits aren't just a nice-to-have, but essential to retaining your
tentative grip on power.
The (Real) Future of Oil
Members of OPEC have no choice but to...
