I don't believe RC has a subsection for gold and silver mining stocks, and I know some members have positions in some of these companies. Is this something admins could consider creating? I just bought my first share in Goldcorp, Inc. (I'm diversified now, yay, lol ) Anyway, I think it's kind of exciting. What do other members think about a subsection devoted solely to discussions on mining stocks?

In the event we have a section like that and I missed it, disregard everything I said, I've got strep and not thinking straight!

I just bought hl this morning should have waited still going down

not a gold stock...... but aa has done me well for the 4 days I have owned it.

If you're trading equities, study these pullbacks and you can learn which mining stocks show the greatest resilience when they rebound. Learn what you'd like to hold, then buy the dips (but even then, not at market, place a limit order to buy slightly below market). Pretty much all the precious metals stocks are down across the board, but by differing percentages. So I took the opportunity to clean house of my gold stocks AEM, AUY, GG which were down less than two percent when I sold them, and bought AG and AGQ, which were down ten percent and over eight percent when I bought them. Also entered a new position in AUMN, which is up slightly already. Trading the gold/silver ratio with paper. Chris... you bought Alcoa? Have you been sniffing laughing gas? Or are you talking about Thogey's alma mater? Do they give you a discount to attend meetings if you hold shares?

My portfolio as of today is.

Arian Silver
Trade winds ventures
Mega Uranium
Avalon
Great Western Minerals
MFA Financial
Aufura resources
Cardero resources
Dacha Strategic
Cash


Down today, but up huge overall. Arian is on sale today, I actually picked some up and I already have a very large position. This stock will be $2.00 in the near future.

TIMMINS GOLD CORP

PINK:TMGOF

SLW

Already have lots of SLW. Took a look at Arian's website, doesn't say too much, but one of their major shareholders is Sprott Asset Management. I trust their judgement (due diligence). Although it seems speculative, I'll start picking up a bit of Arian on dips. I subscribe to both Zeal intelligence's silver report and Jordan Roy-Byrne's Gold and Silver Premium report, neither of which cover Arian Silver... but that doesn't mean it isn't worthy of taking a look at. I do wonder if it's recent runup is sustainable, or if some prolonged consolidation, or a pullback, isn't warranted from these heights.

Perhaps a forum similar to the User Comments/Feedback section where each thread in the forum is for a particular stock or fund?

Yep.....They are ripe for a takeover.

Cramer said it so it must be true: http://www.marketintelligencecenter.com ... es/1242553

BTW....My purchase was an aluminum speculation....and I do not receive investment tips via the television.

I don't have the capital to day trade, but I hold a few shares in the following:

Altria (MO)
Franco-Nevada

I hope to get some more miners and a few more blue-chip dividend stocks. I am thinking Newmont Mining, BHP Billiton, Molson-Coors, and Coca-Cola.

Great way to hold silver and create income is buying SLV (the silver ETF) in at least 100 share increments and selling out of the money covered calls. Due your due diligence. The premiums on those calls are giant (but so have been the underlying moves in SLV). Either way, good, easy way to have some silver exposure and make a little extra cash.

Well, looking at the charts over the last few days, something is certainly up. They've made a nice move, in opposition to all the PM's today. I got burned on alcoa a few years ago, so that's why I was mocking you. Go ahead, follow Cramer. Good luck (take your profit while you have one). I think I'm gonna try a Jan $160 call option on AGQ in the morning.

AG Im currently in the same position as you and intend to head in the same direction you do.

Dividends are the way to go

Right now Im way too heavy on Potash stocks and other agri related stocks. But it has done me well. I do plan to diversify more.

A stock section for people like us would be very interesting

Yes my great Admins.....Whata you think? Put your rings together and summon “The Powers That Be” and create a:

Stocks, Bonds, and Banking Paper forum thread section under the member’s only section. For all to congregate, discus, and learn about paper assets.

There are some high-quality, top-tier miners that pay dividends now, among them: Barrick Gold, Goldcorp Inc. , Newmont Mining, Kinross Gold, & Anglogold Ashanti.
There may be others, but you can't get much safer (in the industry, that is) than these guys. I liked Goldcorp (GG) because they aren't hedged a drop, have great cash flow, and large proven and provable reserves. I'm not much for speculating--safety and liquidity is my motto.

Doesn't get a ton in PR on this side of the pond because they are based in England. There are a ton of stocks you don't hear about over there that are doing very well. Here is some more info on Arian.

Some of the keys tught now.

They are a producer
The San Jose Vein is only 10% mapped out in the indicated catagory. 43m oz of Silver with another 17m oz silver eq in base metals. It is expected that another 150-200m oz will be addedto the indicated catagory this yr.
They have not one drill running, but 2
They have also contracted an 3 party on site lab for quick assaying of samples
They are making improvements to the 500 t/day mill


This company will never be a huge producer, it is all about the property, proving the resources is what will drive the SP. The production is just enough to keep them cash positive. This company will be bought out in the next 12-36 mo. I expect by then we will have seen a SP increase from todays price to $2.00-$5.00 per share by then if Silver stays in the 30-50/per oz range.
