Does MM like Gold @ $US2,000/oz?

James, I notice your rationale of selling OZL as the copper price has hit your target. I have been holding NST & WGX with a view that gold would head back to US$2k. Now it has done, do you think it prudent to move out of the gold miners, or would you continue to hold for exposure for a leg higher now it seems to have broken out of it's range? They still seem somewhat undervalued on a P/E ratio. I also like the growth prospects of both longer term. Also, your perspective. Surely MFG is oversold & undervalued, even if FUM continue to fall? Will all holders be issued options expiry of 5 years at a strike price of $35 at a 1:8 ratio. Do you think they will do a on market buy back? I still like the business. With thanks, Bernie

Answer

Hi Bernie,

Two very different questions here hence we’ve split the answers:

Gold – we recently cut our Northern Star Resources (NST) position in the Australian Gold Sector but for now we are sticking with Newcrest Mining (NCM) but this holding could be reduced into further upside panic i.e. we are sellers into strength.

Magellan (MFG) – We think its a good “trade” in the $14 area but the trend and momentum are both down hence we currently classify it as a trade as opposed to an investment until further notice. All holders will be issues options and not sure on a buy-back at this stage.
