by Allen Alper and Jason Clements
 Greg McCoach, author of The Mining Speculator, warns that markets worldwide are going to have problems, including our junior mining stocks for awhile. Mr. McCoach sees the sovereign debt problems in Europe and the implosion of these derivatives and credit default swaps with MF Global as signs that things are going to get worse before they get better. “It’s like 2008 times 10 and it’s underway right now,” he says. However, Mr. McCoach says junior mining companies will provide opportunities for investors to find value and to come out ahead. He predicts a dramatic rise in prices for gold and silver. “This will be the next run to the newest highs. Gold will be well over $2000. I expect silver to be well over $50 going towards $60 and $70 an ounce,” he exclaims.

In his talk at the San Francisco Hard Assets Investment Conference, he provided lots of data to back up his position. Mr. Nadler applied the basic laws of supply and demand mentioning that a decrease in demand for silver and a current surplus points to a decrease in price. He’s not totally against silver though; he just says if you do invest in silver, “Do it in addition to a core position in gold.”

Taylor MacDonald: The Perfect Storm for Gold
by Sally Lowder of The Gold Report
A lot of short-term peaks and troughs can make things messy in the resource space, and the associated volatility can whipsaw people out of investments. "Still," says Pathfinder Asset Management Limited's Associate Portfolio Manager Taylor MacDonald, "the long-term picture itself is very much intact." The U.S. dollar is in the process of breaking down, and that will ultimately be supportive of gold. "And when you sidecar the dollar breakdown with quantitative easing, he says, "you essentially have a perfect storm forming for gold." Find out why Taylor expects the junior mining space to shine even brighter in 2011 in this exclusive interview with The Gold Report.
