Sean Brodrick – Beaver Creek PM Summit Takeaways and Opportunities In Gold, Silver, and Copper Stocks
Sean Brodrick, Editor of Wealth Megatrends, Supercycle Investor, Resource Trader, and contributing analyst to Weiss Ratings Daily, joins us for a wide-ranging discussion where he shares his key takeaways from the Beaver Creek Precious Metals Summit, as well as opportunities he sees in gold, silver, and copper stocks. We start off getting insights into how Sean approached interviewing the companies he met with, the primary trends he noted with the producers and developers, and also some red flags he looks for to help filter through all the companies. This ties into his broader portfolio management strategies. Sean is still mostly animated by revenue-generating gold, silver, and copper producers, but still sat down with developers with a line of sight towards near-term production. We kick it off reviewing how higher oil and diesel prices may effect input costs in many producers much less than some analysts would anticipate. He shares how he views low-cost producers versus high-cost producers that may have a plan to expand or improve efficiencies to bring costs down. We delve into companies that have had relative strength versus remaining relative laggards, what the market is telling us about these stocks or if they are just underfollowed, and if that could presents any opportunities. He discusses the wide margins of the miners, and his views on different capital deployment and return to shareholder options that companies have in this strong metals price environment. We contrast companies that want to grow organically versus those that may be inclined to use their strong balance sheets to make acquisitions. Sean talked about the unique point in time where some juniors actually want to move forward into production on their own, and that some companies actually don’t want to be taken over until they have the chance to further unlock their value proposition. We review the risks associated with different company strategies, and tie it back to the management team’s experience and ability to execute.
