Given that Kennedy Ventures (LON:KENV) is a company focused on the resources space, and that since President Elect Trump came on the scene early this month things have been under something of a cloud, it is all the more pleasing that the stock has held up. This is particularly the case given the way that…
Given that 2016 was the year of the great mining sector revival, the worst case scenario would be that the latest fall in precious metals brings that revival to an end. Ahead of the US Presidential Election it appeared that we had a good indicator of the result – better than the pollsters in fact!…
With Majestic Wines (LON:MJW) we have yet another of those big name High Street retail sector conundrums to chew on, both from a fundamental and a technical perspective. I have to admit that I was actually somewhat disappointed in the wake of hearing the latest update from discount alcohol seller Majestic Wines, where my initial…
I have to admit that Prudential (LON:PRU) does not tend to be the most exciting of companies on the stock market. But as many experienced investors will be aware, it is usually the “boring” companies which are the ones to back. One of the highlights of the stock market since the election of Donald Trump…

I have to admit that a certain Monday morning feeling…
It would appear that as President Elect Donald Trump did not press the nuclear button / start World War III on Tuesday November 9 2016, gold is something of a sell… Apparently one of the best ways to make money is to have a view, and to stick to it. Unfortunately, this also seems to…
I have to say that despite being a fan of Ascent Resources (LON:AST), it felt as if the company was a little too rough a ride. However, for the bulls at least it may be that things are finally entering calmer waters. Ascent Resources has not been a stock for widows or orphans. Indeed, at…
Rather like the stock market analogy of profits warnings coming in threes, there is the situation where one capitulates on a stock or market just before the great turnaround arrives. This may ring true with copper – and hence miners in this area. The price of copper and the share price of Central Asia Metals…
We have seen an interesting divergence between the initial strength of gold in the wake of the Trump victory, and the mark-up maintained by many of the leading gold proxies like Patagonia Gold (LON:PGD). It would appear that there has been an embarrassment of riches in terms of the recent news flow served up by…
