I was wrong about Orogen Royalties + B2Gold Stock goes up on bad Q4 Earnings

Mining Stock Monkey VIP Bulletin #58 February 25, 2025 B2Gold reported weak Q4 earnings, and curiously, the stock was up more than 5% on the day. In this bulletin, we're going to dive into their earnings as well as talk about some other updates from our portfolio. Before I get to that, I would like to cover a couple of very interesting things that recently hit the news wire. According to an article on Mining.com, President Donald Trump has stated that "major economic development transactions...

Mining Stock Monkey VIP Bulletin #72 June 2, 2025 Some new subscribers asked me how often I send out newsletters. I send about one per week on average, sometime more and sometimes less often, depending on news flow. You haven't heard from me since May 20th because it's been a slow period of news flow from our portfolio. In this bulletin, I'd like to cover a couple of updates from our companies and share with you what I think is a good buy today. All numbers are in USD unless specified...

Mining Stock Monkey VIP Bulletin #71 May 20, 2025 Today I want to give you a recap of all of the companies in our portfolio, remind you why we own each one, and let you know whether or not I think each is a good buy today. All numbers I mention are in US Dollars, unless specified otherwise. Sprott Physical Uranium Trust OTC:SRUUF TSX:U.UN We added the Sprott physical uranium trust to the portfolio at $13.63 on March 11th when the uranium price was weak and the trust was trading at about a 13%...

Mining Stock Monkey VIP Bulletin #70 May 14, 2025 Some more companies in our portfolio have reported Q1 earnings and the gold price has been extremely volatile lately, so in this newsletter I'd like to give you an update on some of the stocks we own. EMX Royalty EMX continues to perform very well and they're buying back and cancelling a lot of shares. There are only slightly more than 100 million shares outstanding and in Q1 they bought back the remainder of the shares allotted under their...

Mining Stock Monkey VIP Bulletin #69 May 8, 2025 Equinox Gold released Q1 earnings and the stock is down big. As I start writing this, EQX is down about 10.6% this morning. These disappointing earnings came as a surprise to the market but it shouldn't have been a surprise for anyone who follows the company closely. As I've said in a couple of my recent newsletters, the stock was likely to fall on Q1 earnings news because historically Q1 is their weakest quarter because that's when they...

Mining Stock Monkey VIP Bulletin #68 April 24, 2025 In this bulletin, I'll be answering some readers' questions about the recently announced Orogen deal, letting you know about a modification of the proposed Equinox Gold / Calibre Mining merger, and sharing with you how to get a free call option on Triple Flag Precious Metals. Equinox / Calibre Merger Last night they announced a modification to the Equinox Gold / Calibre Mining merger. Instead of it being a zero-premium merger, Calibre...

Mining Stock Monkey VIP Bulletin #67 April 22, 2025 This morning it was announced that Orogen Royalties is getting acquired by Triple Flag Precious Metals for C$421 million or C$2.00 per share. However, that's not actually what's happening. Let's dive in... What's actually happening is that Orogen is selling their "Silicon" gold royalty in Nevada to Triple Flag for C$343m (US$248m) and the rest of Orogen is being spun out as a new company. We don't yet know the name of this new company but...

Mining Stock Monkey VIP Bulletin #66 April 21, 2025 With gold shooting to record highs, we've seen a tremendous amount of volatility in the portfolio recently. Many gold stocks have screamed higher in the past couple of weeks and I think the risk embedded in the gold stocks has increased because of this unhealthy run. Pullbacks are normal and healthy in a bull market and we haven't really seen that, hence why I call it "unhealthy". Also, given the recent increase in gold stocks, I no longer...

Mining Stock Monkey VIP Bulletin #65 April 10, 2025 The past few days has resulted in some of the craziest market action that I've seen in my lifetime. I'm surprised at the wild market swings that's caused by a single sentence from one man. I don't comment much on macro as I feel like my strength is focusing on what's happening at a company level. But I'd like to quickly opine on what's created some turbulence in the markets recently. One day, the market action hangs on a single word in a...

Mining Stock Monkey VIP Bulletin #64 April 4, 2025 Wow, a lot has changed over the past week! With the markets crashing there's a lot of bargains to be had, so in this newsletter issue I'm going to share with you what I think are the best buys in our portfolio today. There have also been some updates with a few the companies in our portfolio, so I'll be sharing those with you as well. Note, I'm writing this when the markets are open on a very volatile day, so it's possible that the stock...

Mining Stock Monkey VIP Bulletin #63 March 29, 2025 B2Gold's stock price fell nearly 9% today after they released a new technical report and life of mine plan for the Goose Project that they're building in Nunavut, Canada. Is this a buying opportunity or did the stock deserve to fall 9%? Let's dig in... Summary It is my opinion that this new technical report is very bad news and this is not a buying opportunity. In fact, I think the stock price should've been down a lot more on this news. In...
