Sprott CEO Says Junior Gold Miners are Set for Major Acquisitions Next Year
Peter Grosskopf, CEO of Sprott, joins Catherine Murray, Host of BNN Bloomberg's The Close for a look at M&A activity within the Canadian gold sector. Grosskopf says that while big-name gold miners like Barrick and Newmont have gone through notable acquisitions this year, we are likely to see a significant number of junior miner acquisitions in 2020.
Gold, at a Discount? (Yes, Through a Closed-End Fund)
Gold and silver are again in an upswing, and one of the smartest ways to own the precious metals might be to purchase shares in a closed-end fund trading at a discount to its net asset value, and invested in the physical assets—not mining stocks, futures contracts or options.
Video: Gold Outlook: Equities, Miners and ESG
Remy Blaire of The ETF Show interviews Ed Coyne, Senior Managing Director of National Sales at Sprott Asset Management, and gets Sprott's outlook for gold bullion, gold equities and how ESG impacts miners.
A Message from the CEO: This Tide Will Turn
Peter Grosskopf: "Gold performed extremely well in the face of this year’s market jubilee, which transpired amid supportive conditions including a stable U.S. dollar and benign inflation. For twilight surfers, however, we believe gold’s role as a lifeguard has never been more important."
Sprott is involved in several ventures that seek to deliver the next generation of precious metals investing. These projects combine the benefits of digital blockchain technology and the proven advantages of investing in physical precious metals bullion.
