Don't miss this week's interview with Keith Neumeyer, president and CEO of First Majestic Silver Corp. Keith, is somewhat of a lone wolf when it comes to mining executives because he regularly holds gold and silver on the company's balance sheet, rather than always selling his mining output onto the open market. Keith discusses this strategy and why he is a firm believer in his product.  Don't forget to also follow us on social media for more important precious metals updates! https://www.youtube.com/@Moneymetals | https://www.facebook.com/MoneyMetals | https://instagram.com/moneymetals/ | https://twitter.com/moneymetals | https://www.pinterest.com/moneymetals/

Peter Krauth, author of the book The Great Silver Bull and editor of the Silver Stock Investor newsletter, joins me for a wide-ranging discussion on the macroeconomic factors continuing to move the precious metal sector, and some pro tips on investing junior silver stocks.    This is a longer-format conversation where we cover many areas of consideration like the recent extreme market volatility, the positioning from countries and investors in front of the coming Trump administration tariffs, and gold acting as the sole safe haven when the US dollar and bonds did not.  We also review whether the gold:silver ratio will compress, favoring a catchup trade in the silver price to higher levels, despite some concerns regarding the global economic concerns pulling on its industrial component.  We also review the lagging effect in the SILJ share price to higher and higher silver prices.   During the conversation, Peter and I discuss a number of silver companies which include:  Cerro de Pasco Resources Inc. (TSX.V: CDPR) (OTCQB: GPPRF),  GoGold Resources Inc. (TSX: GGD) (OTCQX: GLGDF), Coeur Mining (NYSE: CDE), First Majestic Silver Corp. (NYSE: AG) (TSX: AG), Discovery Silver Corp.

Are gold and oil the best investments for 2025? Legendary investor Rick Rule joins me at the Vancouver Resource Investment Conference to break down the biggest opportunities in gold, oil & gas, inflation, and tariffs under the new political landscape. We discuss how the Federal Reserve is losing control of inflation, why gold could outperform the S&P 500, and whether Trump's policies could supercharge Canadian energy stocks. Rick also reveals why the junior mining sector is overfunded, the key mistakes investors make, and how to spot 10x opportunities in natural resources. Plus, his take on why uranium, lithium, and silver stocks are at a critical turning point. #gold #oil #tariffs ----------- Thank you to our #sponsor FIRST MAJESTIC SILVER CORP.

Peter Krauth, author of the book The Great Silver Bull and editor of the Silver Stock Investor newsletter, joins me for a wide-ranging discussion on the macroeconomic factors continuing to move the precious metal sector, and some pro tips on investing junior silver stocks.  This is a longer-format conversation where we cover many areas of consideration like the recent US election outcome, another Fed rate cut, a corrective move in silver and gold after hitting new recent highs, margin expansion in the producers, which stocks have the most torque, merger and acquisitions, juniors with news catalysts, and much more…   The company examples that Peter and I provide for our review of the silver equities at various points in the discussion include:  Gatos Silver, Inc. (TSX: GATO) (NYSE: GATO), First Majestic Silver Corp. (TSX: AG) (NYSE: AG), Coeur Mining (NYSE: CDE), SilverCrest Metals Inc. (TSX: SIL; NYSE American: SILV) , Aya Gold & Silver Inc.

Dave Kranzler, Fund Manager and Publisher of the Mining Stock Journal and the Short Seller's Journal, joins me for a wide-ranging discussion on the truth and fiction in macroeconomic numbers from the government, what stocks he is shorting in the general equities, and what gold and silver stocks he is bullish on in the junior precious metals sector.  It's a longer-format interview and we really cover a lot of ground in it.   We start off looking at the gulf between the macroeconomic numbers we get from the government reports, and the actual numbers showing up in the real world, and how to balance those out as investors trying to digest all of this.  When looking at inflation readings, or jobs numbers, or GDP estimates, there is a huge impact in the markets created in the way these metrics are calculated or massaged, and a large impact from the government's own involvement and overspending. Even the Fed's M2 figures, despite it coming down when looking at year over year percentages are misleading as the M2 supply has been growing since 2023. The manufacturing numbers show many parts of the US having been in recessionary territory for years now, and as a result, many consumers are strapped by higher than reported actual inflation in their daily lives, and big segments of the public are cutting back on discretionary spending.   When contrasting the economy with the moves in the markets, it is very much 2 different lenses to view things through, with the general S&P and Nasdaq indexes having continued to make all time highs most of this year.   Dave points out that if investors do their due diligence on individual companies that have been pushed to severe overvaluations, that there are still plenty of short-selling opportunities out there, citing his calls in Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA), Super Micro Computer (NasdaqGS: SMCI), and more recently short calls on Harley-Davidson, Inc. (NYSE:HOG), and some of the US homebuilders.    Next we pivoted over to the drivers in gold from the eastern buying and BRICs countries central banks purchasing the monetary metal as the number 2 asset on their balance sheets after the US dollar.  We discuss the dearth of western demand for gold and the gold stocks considering the backdrop we are seeing with gold having hit all-time highs since the end of last year and all through this year. This leads us into a discussion about gold stocks where Dave sees a good value proposition, including Viva Gold Corp (TSX.V: VAU) (OTCQB: VAUCF), Cabral Gold Inc. (TSXV: CBR) (OTC: CBGZF), Heliostar Metals Ltd. (TSXV: HSTR) (OTCQX: HSTXF), and Integra Resources Corp. (TSXV: ITR) (NYSE-A: ITRG).   We then got into Dave's silver price expectations, and 2 recent high-profile merger and acquisition deals where Gatos Silver, Inc. (TSX: GATO) (NYSE: GATO) is being acquired by First Majestic Silver Corp. (TSX: AG) (NYSE: AG), and where SilverCrest Metals Inc. (TSX: SIL) (NYSE American: SILV) getting bought out by Coeur Mining, Inc. (NYSE: CDE).   We then get Dave's thesis on why he believes New Pacific Metals Corp. (TSX: NUAG) (NYSE-A: NEWP) will get rerated higher, to a better multiple on the economic studies they just released on 2 different projects.   This leads into a discussion on what the appropriate metals prices assumptions should be in economics studies, and why more companies in the PM sector are not at least highlighting their robust project economics at somewhere close to spot prices.  Wrapping up ponder if the valuations and momentum trading will come back to the PM juniors, or if this time really is different?   Click here to learn more about Dave's newsletters and service.

"Basic commodities we rely on as a mining industry we have to look for today because the Fed is cutting off supply chains," says Keith Neumeyer, president and CEO of First Majestic Silver Corp. "We're going to have long-term inflation... I think we are going to have an inflationary period that's going to last the next decade," he says at the Gold & Silver reception during PDAC 2023. "On a dollar basis, we are producing more gold than silver right now... Gold creates the stability we need on a balance sheet," Neumeyer continues. "Copper is the highway, and silver is the glue... Recycling is virtually at zero for silver, " he argues. "The entire mining sector is down, and we are heavily affected by the silver price. "We're still focusing on Mexico, I've not given up on it, I think it's a great place for a silver and gold company to be," Neumeyer states. "There is something going on behind the scenes with central banks hoarding gold, and because of that, we're going to see new highs in gold at the end of the year... $3,000 gold and $30 silver," he concludes. ➡️ Watch Here

Tom welcomes back Keith Neumeyer, President & CEO of First Majestic Silver Corp. Keith explains why the world needs enormous amounts of metals for electrification and carbon objectives. He says, "We will never be fully off oil and gas but we can reduce it given time." He is a fan of hydrogen and nuclear solutions for energy. The mining industry continues to be held back and demonized. Mining methods are gradually improving. It takes time however to implement and build solutions in a capital-starved market. The creation of new mines takes years and sometimes decades. Tech companies are too focused on the short-term and don't understand the complexity of resource development. The top five high tech companies have a market cap of five trillion. While the top fifty mining companies are worth a fraction of that industry. There are no real substitutes for silver. Companies like Dupont have tried with limited success. By 2022 the world will need 140 million ounces of silver just for solar panels. This is a 30-40 percent YOY increase. Keith discusses silver recycling and why supplies of similar seem limited. It will require considerably higher prices to recover silver and bring these metals to refiners and recyclers. The recycling business is quite difficult and metals are hard to recover from e-waste. He is concerned about the pricing structures around metal and believes the Comex needs to go away. First Majestic's approach is to sell bars directly to industry and thus often bypass the futures market. The mining sector has been undereducated for some time and Latin America is now filling in the gap for talent in engineering and mining. The mining sector is having a harder time as the population moves to greener and increasingly socialist mindsets. The mining sector will have to be more aggressive if humanity is going to achieve its objectives.

Guest Links:Twitter: https://twitter.com/keith_neumeyerTwitter: https://twitter.com/fmsilvercorpWebsite: https://www.firstmajestic.com/ Keith Neumeyer is President & CEO of First Majestic Silver Corp. Mr. Neumeyer has worked in the investment community since 1984. He began his career at some Canadian national brokerage firms. Mr. Neumeyer moved on to work with several publically traded companies in the resource and high technology sectors. Mr. Neumeyer has been the President and Chief Executive Officer of First Silver Reserve Inc. since June 19, 2006. His roles have included senior management positions and directorships responsible for finance, business development, strategic planning, and corporate restructuring. Mr. Neumeyer was the original and founding President of First Quantum Minerals Ltd. (T-FM) and First Majestic Silver in 2002 and First Mining Finance in 2015.

Tom welcomes back Keith Neumeyer, President & CEO of First Majestic Silver Corp. Keith explains why the silver market's characteristics, in particular, attracted his interest. During the last year, the production of silver has declined while consumption has been flat. Typically silver is mined at a ratio of about 8 to 1 compared with gold, and therefore silver may be rarer than most people think. In theory, silver today should be worth 1/8th of gold. Keith is reasonably confident the gold-silver ratio will surpass thirty in this bull market. Much of silver is coming from above-ground reserves, and he now feels that retail investors and not only industry demand will drive this market. The current retail investor silver squeeze movement has a significant effect on supplies, and more importantly, an entire generation of new people are now aware of silver. Keith discusses how quickly First Majestics shares trade and why there is a significant short position. The closest comparison with today's equity markets is likely the 1999-2000 period. There is a lot of excess exuberance in these markets, and we may be reaching a severe correction. Often directors of companies don't hold any stocks. When investing, you want to see management have significant investment in the companies they manage. It's best to get into stocks when no one else wants them, and you know they are good companies. Keith explains how mining is usually a slow industry that is reluctant to adopt new technology. He discusses the advantages that new technology brings in reducing costs and the significant increases they have obtained in metal recovery. He discusses the problems with holding back supplies of the metal. These issues include storage issues, accounting problems, and an additional elements of risk.

Collin welcomes returning guest Keith Neumeyer to the program to discuss all-things silver. Keith is the President and CEO of First Majestic Silver Corp. Keith is seeing an increase in inquiries from big institutional funds regarding silver. It seems the high silver to gold ratio has caught the attention of many investors. He believes everything should trade on real supply-demand fundamentals. As an industry, silver is mined at an 8 to 1 ratio with gold. This ratio should correct at some point much lower, perhaps as little as 25 to 1. Keith expects that we will see triple-digit silver. Silver is a precious metal, an industrial metal, but often not considered it is also a strategic metal. Everything we do as a human race requires silver from transportation to electronics, and Keith says, "We're not going to produce enough silver to meet the demands of the world." Time Stamp References: 1:00 - Silver ratio waking up big institutions. 2:20 - Inflation, lower interest rates, and gold. 3:50 - Outlook for silver and the silver-gold ratio. 5:25 - Silver's demand profile. 8:40 - Comparing historical markets. 12:15 - Mining sector cyclicality and greed. 15:00 - Why his focus is on the commodity sector. Talking Points From This Episode • Big institution money takes notice. • Negative interest rates are bullish for silver and gold. • Expectations for triple-digit silver. • Silver as a strategic metal. • Timing the mining sector.

Jerremy specializes in candlesticks, gaps, day trading with shares and options, swing trading and credit spreads. He graduated from the University of Florida in 2009 with a bachelor’s degree in business management, with a minor in mass communication. In his spare time, he has dabbled in the comedy world, practices Brazilian jiu-jitsu and has an informed taste in music and good beverages. Forrest Gump drives desire to not ‘have to worry about money no more’ Many people were inspired by the 1994 Tom Hanks masterwork, Forrest Gump. The box office hit inspired viewers with its mash-up history and heart-wrenching life lessons. Notably, it included an undeniable and timeless investment lesson.   Our guest Jerremy’s love affair with trading in the stock market started when he watched Forrest go to the mailbox while he’s telling his new park-bench friend how he’d had a call from “Lieutenant Dan”, who had invested their money in “some kind of fruit company” (Apple computers, Apple Inc. AAPL:US, APPL.OQ) and that they “didn’t have to worry about money no more”. For young Jerremy, the main motivation for getting into the world of investing was that his family always worried about money and he wanted to find out “How could we not do that anymore?” Jerremy begged his father to invest in Apple as well, and finally he agreed too, also saying he would match his son’s stake. He gave US$1,300 to his father, a sum raised from door-to-door sales of blackberries he had picked himself in the summer of 1994. The Apple shares they bought performed very well and around six years later, his father gave his then-12-year-old self a whopping $12,000 and he has been hooked on trading and investing ever since.   Apple Inc.’s share price from beginning to present [caption id="attachment_2558" align="alignnone" width="1555"] Red line in the Apple Inc. chart above represents the approximate period Jerremy and his father traded in Apple shares, which succeeded in turning Jerremy’s initial investment of US$1,300 into $12,000.

Jerremy was confident after tasting success when he had a striking 36% return from his father’s retirement funds in three months. But things didn’t go as expected when after its peak at $48.35 per share, it dropped by $10 in a week, a 20% loss in value, and unbelievably plunged to zero in the following week. Jerremy will detail more of the ins and outs of the trade and how his personal investment and loss of his father’s entire of his taught him the more important lessons: opening up his fears, on following the trend, and risk mitigation. Learn more from Andrew as well as he will give you his six-step process, fundamentals take when investing, for beginners or experts.   Every investor’s going to have losses. It doesn’t matter how much money they’ve made over time they’ve had certain situations that they’ve lost a lot of money on. So being honest, being humble, being open about it is key and integral. And it’s very important through the whole process of learning. You can learn more from your losers, than you will for your winners, without question. – Jerremy Newsome   Investor, 21, bedazzled by hype and sheen of silver   On Jerremy’s 21st birthday, he asked for the contents of his father’s retirement account with which to trade. Confident about a strategy he had been using, he went on to make a stunning 36% return on the entire $100,000 in just three months. His father was as excited as he was. Then, he learned about stock options, which move faster than stocks. Jerremy went into investing in silver, which was all the rage and he was as caught up in the media, social and investing hype as everyone else. He felt he could not lose. This was the “perfect investment” and that thought was very assuring. His first foray into silver had been shares in First Majestic Silver (Corp.) ticker symbol (AG:US, AG.A) and he did very well. He holds an unofficial Guinness World Book of Records for buying silver at its highest price and even bought a lot of call options. He bought 300 call options, valued at $16,000 that time. In layman’s terms, Andrew defined call options as – “… when you think something’s going up, it’s not enough just to own the underlying stock. What if you could take a leveraged bet that says I’m going to make more money when this thing goes up? An option allows you to do that.” In 2011, the share price for the silver went up from $18 an ounce to $45.57 an ounce in a few short months, which validated his thesis and gave him comfort.   When silver lost its shine After its highest share price at $48.37, it dropped to $35 after a week.  It is a $10 decrease which is over 20% rate. He bought on leverage so he was not just buying gear, but also the actual underlying position which has zero value other than pure speculation.  Jerremy was speculating at its highest degree and in just one week, the price plummeted to zero. And he lost everything in his investment.   Jerremy bets wrong way with his options There are two types of insurance that options provide: insurance for the downside and insurance for the upside. Many people are unaware that one factor about trading itself is you can insure your stock positions, which right now is very beneficial for many traders. It is called a put option, which is an insurance position for your shares.  When Jerremy bought a call option, he was buying an insurance position only expecting the stock to go up. The only way to win when buying a call option is if the stock continues to go higher, and he bought a $50 call option when silver was trading at $48.37 cents. It was a position that needed to go to $50 in order to make money and it never did. He lost all of the money he put in, but it didn’t stop him because he thought it was a normal correction. He thought the stock was just pulling back and that it would rebound higher. And so, he eventually ended up buying even more options a few months later in August 2011 and that’s when silver dropped another 20% and he lost all of the money. The $100,000 that his dad gave all lost.   Two fears and why he didn’t get out Jerremy only thought and considered making profits without considering the downside – how much he could lose or how bad his investments could go.  A few years later, he figured why he didn’t get out and instead of losing it all, he could’ve taken a small loss. He admits he had rational fears: (1) afraid of not being loved and (2) afraid of not feeling good enough. Since he lost all of his father’s money, he had to tell him and he feared that he would lose the love of his father as a consequence. And so, he never got out, which meant he hung on and lost more. It was a very strong psychological component, because I’m trading (with) my dad’s money, I’m 21 years old and what was happening is when I refused to take the loss, I tried, you know, years later to figure out why. Why did I not just get out, take a loss of some kind and say … ‘Hey, sorry dad, we only lost 50,000’. Rather than losing it all, why don’t I just get out, take the small loss. – Jerremy Newsome   iShares Silver Trust tracks the spot price of silver + Jerremy’s trades [caption id="attachment_2559" align="alignnone" width="1545"] Chart shows the iShares Silver Trust which tracks the spot price of silver and Jerremy’s trades. Source: TradingView[/caption]   Jerremy’s Takeaways      1. If everyone loves something and everyone’s talking about it, don’t get involved. Don’t invest. Bitcoin was the perfect example. Buying at $20,000. No way. Don’t do it.   2.Risk mitigation.  There are strategies you can use where you can either win big or, if you don’t know what you’re doing, you can lose everything. Risk mitigation is key in this environment because if you don’t have the money, you definitely can’t trade and you certainly can’t get it back. But if you have the money, you must protect it. Since you know that you have to protect yourself regardless of how much money you have in this world, you can lose every dime on a position that you don’t fully understand.     Andrew’s Takeaways Not feeling good enough: Many of the people Andrew has interviewed are esteemed and experienced financial professionals who hid their losses in fear that they would be unworthy of their titles. He notes Your Money and Your Brain by Jason Zweig, the book he read that helped him realize that investing is a physical thing. We have emotional reactions and we mental reactions to investing. Such reactions can be measured to such an extent and that they are so tangibly physical that he calls investing a contact sport. Most people who succumb to their emotions fail to realize how easily their brains and their emotions are being manipulated. 2.Confirmation bias or The White Toyota Syndrome: When you buy a white Toyota, all of a sudden you notice there’s a lot of white Toyotas on the road. And this is the concept of confirmation bias. That bias is what we’re doing when we’re looking for things that confirm our beliefs. Serious long-term investors welcome ideas that go against their beliefs and they see the value in them. 3. Do not invest when everybody’s talking about it. 4. What should be a good process of investing for the average beginner?   Andrew outlines his six-step process: Step 1: Find an idea. Step 2: Research the return. Step 3: Asses the risks. Step 4: Create a plan. Step 5: Execute the plan. Step 6: Monitor the progress.   The most important out of these six steps to which Andrew regularly refers is that you want to separate the research that you do about the return from the research you do about the risk. To arrive at this he was strongly influenced by Michael Gerber’s book The E-Myth, which discusses this extensively. The book identifies a state it calls “an entrepreneurial seizure”.     “What is important is that we separate the work that we do on researching the return, which brings all of the positive emotion and the assessment of risk and the researching of risk and risk management.” - Andrew Stotz       Final words: Every trader is going to have losses. Jerremy has discovered that being honest, humble and open are the fundamental keys. Importance of risk mitigation.   Measures to avoid the same fate Jerremy advises listeners to do the following: Get some charting software, such as tradingview.com, think or swim, freestockcharts.com, Yahoo finance or the like. For every guest on this show, each one of your listeners should pull up the chart concerned if it is available and look at the course of the investment on the chart. Discern why it was a bad trade (as we have done in the charts above). If you can also visually identify why something is not a good idea, it can also help when you see it. In a few weeks or months, Jerremy suggests that Andrew is going to have a guest talk about how they bought Bitcoin (COINXBT:SS) at 20,000 or Ethereum at 2,000, and if you can visually identify what a bubble looks like or “a hyperextension of price action”, you have a much greater chance to not buy at that bubble point.   Go back and research with day-by-day analysis events such as the Great Depression, the crash of 1987, the tech bubble of 2000, the Bitcoin bubble, the Tulip mania of 1637, many others, actually looking visually at that information.   These are things you can quantitatively do right now.   Controlling your emotions and controlling your thoughts are difficult things to do. It takes time. But once you can do a quantitative act, like physically getting in front of a chart and see how these events looked, when you see another one, your brain will recognize the pattern and maybe you shouldn’t buy at that point.     Andrew’s final word: If we separate the research on the return and the risk, we force ourselves to move to a separate phase of research that allows us then to say, “This is a great return. I’m going to make a ton of money. But now I have to look at how to manage the risk.”   You can also check out Andrew’s Books:   How to Start Building Your Wealth Investing in the Stock Market My Worst Investment Ever 9 Valuation Mistakes and How to Avoid Them   Connect with Jerremy Newsome: reallifetrading.com jerremynewsome.com LinkedIn Twitter   YouTube Connect with Andrew Stotz: astotz.com LinkedIn Facebook Instagram Twitter YouTube My Worst Investment Ever Podcast   Further reading as mentioned in the podcast Newsome, Jerremy (2019) Money Grows on Trees: “How to reshape your thoughts, beliefs and ideals about money and become truly wealthy.” Gerber, Michael (1986) The E-Myth: Why Most Small Businesses Don't Work and What to Do About It Zweig, Jason (2005) Your Money and Your Brain: How the New Science of Neuroeconomics Can Help Make You Rich
