When this fucker gets it’s permits is gonna go bonkers. 10-20x
Numbers are ridiculous and it’s gonna be taken over quickly imho. It’s too big and strategic a project. Big steel company is gonna snag it. FFS
Best #molybdenum play around. One of the only pure plays moly companies of merit and it was permitted last cycle… getting close to completing its repermitting.
I loaded up on millions of shares cause this is exactly the type of stock that has delivered for me in the past
Oh. And molybdenum will be +$40/lb so you can crank up the npv higher as the permits roll in. Gonna be nuts
As a major shareholder I hope to see management continue to focus on permits, engineering optimization, long term off take agreements coupled with customer supported low interest debt financing
I always prefer to just see minimal equity dilution while advancing the asset so that is served up on a platter to a major to take over. Would be good to get a couple institutional investors on board to help support the stock
Similarly to the huge win we had selling PBS coal to Severstal… behind the scenes we invited 5 different global steel manufacturers to complete for the take over. Set up a data room and get as many of the big boys in it as possible. This cycle because of EV markets…
I believe some car companies will be looking to invest in strategic material companies. The European steel and auto industry is currently completely reliant on foreign moly sources. China is a huge player and everyone else should be very concerned.
China will likely go from being a net exporter of moly to an net importer. The shock to the nonchinese moly buying community will be drastic if/when that happens. Don’t be surprised if moly spikes to $80/lb
Historically when a commodity makes a new decade high it typically doubles very quickly. As we look to run to the old all time highs in molybdenum I can’t help but wonder where it will squeeze to this cycle
It must be understood. We are not making high quality like steel for high tech industries with out molybdenum. We aren’t doing deep horizontal drilling for oil and gas with out molybdenum and we aren’t building new pipelines and gas plants with out molybdenum
So.. as I sit and dream… if moly goes to $40/lb this year from current $32/lb (which is highly likely. And permits are simply renewed (no reason why they won’t) then this stock should run hard gain institutional support and….
Amazingly… even if we target a goal of a $10/sh take out or ~$1 bln for someone to take the company and run. That would only be 1/3 of the npv 10 using $40/lb. still cheap as fuck and a no brainer for a steel co. An auto co or more BHP, Vale, RIO, Chinese conglomerate, etc
They say $6 cash cost. Even with huge inflation call it $10 and $20-30/lb free cashflow between $30-40/lb moly. Times 30mln lbs a year. Is $600-800mln of cashflow. It’s a fucking steal at $10/sh…
As I rant about this on twitter and churn the basic numbers in my head, I’m reminded of back in my Sprott days when I would see Eric go through this same exercise in the morning meeting then declare… well I guess we know what we got to do today…
And we would proceed to go to 19.9% of the little shitco resource company that no one gives a shit about. Why don’t they care? Cause the street is both busy and lazy. Barely anyone pays an analyst to cover the moly sector. It makes the uranium sector look huge.
There just so little investment banking business or trading commissions to be had that they don’t care. They will all line up and try to get the last bit of business. The final raises and the consulting fees on the take over / sale. But other than that it’s a PA stock
And barely anyone has time to focus in and look at the odds of success to repermit. And the huge economics. And strategic importance. Someone like @hkuppy would spend the time to look. But odd balls like him are rare :) anyhow. Feeling like I got a real winner here and
A few wins like this make all the difference.. they erase past sins and create hero’s. if anyone disagrees with the math… please let me know. Cause it’s back of the envelope stuff. Generally speaking stocks I invest in don’t require complex financial models.
I discovered early in my resource investing career that if you can’t do the math in your head and clearly see it’s got massive upside potential then it not worth my time to do a detailed model. And I further learned the detailed model typically is irrelevant once done
Cause right now I don’t care if the npv 10 is $2 or 2.5 or $3bln. Cause the market cap is under $100mln and I know it’s gonna get taken out at some point when enough shareholders are satisfied with the win. If it goes fast my bet is $5-6/sh. But…
With good institutional support and strong handed like minded investors. We can take this think to $5-6 and get it taken out for $1bln or ~$10/sh. Just like PBS Coal
Fact is.. molybdenum that no one gives a fuck about is going into serious shortage.. when the price of moly runs… it runs. Will be testing all time inflation adjusted highs and likely blowing through. Mid $40’s $moly Greenland resources is the play mining.com/surging-molybd…
It won’t be substituted… it will be hoarded and the majors will try to buy out Greenland resources. $moly cause it can produce 30+ mln lbs a year with a sub $7/lb cost and be a cashflow giant for them for decades.
Should be noted that utilities are going to keep stepping in to buy #uranium at spot when ever Sput is able to raise cash. They know they can’t let it consume any more. They prefer to try to sucker some producers into selling low price capped contracts. Same as last cycle
Fact is that the #uranium physical market is super thin now. There are entities that must buy all the spot volume to fill contracts and needs of utilities. Soon sput will be rising and the atm won’t even get turned on cause there will be no uranium avail
Last cycle the #uranium price was spiking along with Sput and we couldn’t raise funds for it because they couldn’t get any uranium at all. Sput then had to buy uf6. It’s gonna happen again and its rapidly approaching. Hard to say when the ‘market’ will clue in to this fact
The #uranium trade is ready for big gains… so simple. If investors allocate to both $urnm and $u.u then the uranium price will squeeze to what ever heights investors want and the uranium miners will explode higher
Hedgefunds are coming and new #uranium assholes are born everyday. Price action will attract more and more and fuel the fire
#Gold and #silver stocks have had a great run from recent lows a couple months back. #uranium stocks are all breaking out of a 1 year wedge pattern. I’m cycling some capital over to the U stocks as a result.
Tax loss selling out of the way. Crypto cult crossover investors have been beaten down and rinsed. I think #uranium stocks are now in strong hands and as I’ve been saying the fundamentals are excellent. DOE paying $70+ for USA Uranium. For me it’s a certainty stocks will run
Such a tiny market cap in the space that still few care. But it’s coming for certain. #Nuclear power is clearly going to be a huge part of the future #energy market. So many major nations are now deciding to make it a key part of their electrical grid. SWU prices are exploding
@leadlagreport I’d be interested in having a discussion about how we should think about QE as it’s likely to be an ongoing ‘thing’ effecting asset prices and altering the typical relationship between bonds, stocks, commodities and real estate.
These unelected central bank officials have (and wield) power that can push any asset class to crazy heights.
The act of printing trillions of new currency and buying bonds and taking rates to zero is a more than just a significant development.
When the QE tap is shut off bonds have to come back to earth and find a natural floor.
Couple months ago I bought some tlt in the low 90’s for a trade. But the trade was entirely based on the fact I thought it was due for an over sold bounce and that the fed would pivot soon
I retired at 43 yrs old. I’m 52 now and the best advice I can share is to appreciate the moment. So many people talk/write about living in the present and such. Hard to do but it’s a great goal. Constant challenges…
I read a lot about killing the ego and that presents great challenges. Climb a mountain to feel present? Accomplish the climb to feed the ego? Hard to decide what we do to tame the ego vs feed it vs silence the mind and be present
Well, as far as hiking goes… maintaining healthy balanced life is essential for general well-being. I find historic hiking of deep valleys therapeutic as I see the geology and note the passage of millions upon millions of years during a decent
