Into our third week of Palisade Radio’s relaunch, we’re bringing on none other than Rick Rule, CEO of Sprott US Holdings. Rick Rule is a well known speculator and investor in the natural resource sector, and as he himself puts it, he has dedicated his entire adult life to natural resource investing. We brought Rick on to discuss the current state of the natural resource sector, and how investors can reap extreme gains from it’s cyclical upturn.  Rick discusses the importance of the merger talks between the world’s two largest gold companies and why it must happen!

Last year, when Rick was on our show, he predicted a long bowl shaped bottom in the junior resource sector. To date he has been spot on. Rick believes there is a very small chance that the bottom is not behind us, with his bets placed on the bottom having already been put in.

In this bottoming process, stocks have been moving from weak hands to strong hands, and that this is playing out precisely the way that it should be playing out.

Rick further say’s that the kind of gains that makes an investor 20-40 fold returns, can only occur from speculation. They can only occur from very volatile and very risky sectors, like technology startups and mineral exploration.

Speaking on what kind of steps one must take to reap 20 fold gains from speculating in the junior resource sector… Rick says that to turn $50,000 into $1,000,000 – in speculating, one must be able to take gains off the table at the appropriate moment, and not try to “wait for the last dime”, before cashing in. Rick states that with the bulk of his sales, he’s missed the absolute tops, looking back at the rough decline in the sector, he believe he was right.

Speaking on the merger between Newmont Mining and Barrick Gold, he says that this merger has to happen. The consolidation of general and administrative costs will save shareholders one billion dollars a year. One of the great tragedies is the incredible creep in G&A, and the way to lower this number is through mergers and acquisitions (M&A).

Two of Rick’s favorite commodities right now are water and uranium. Water is a localized market, and it’s important to invest in water in a place where it’s scarce. Also, you have to invest in water where people can pay for it. Southern Australia and the South-West US, being good places for investment. But water rights are hard to find, and even more difficult to buy.

Uranium is a very different situation, there are many vehicles for investment in the sector. Looking forward, Cameco suggests that the industry average cost of production is about $70/lb. Currently, producers sell their uranium for $32/lb. The long term consequence of that is that either the price of uranium go up, or the “lights go out”.

Finally, Rick compares resources bull markets of the past with the anticipated bull market ahead. He mentions the 1993-96 bull market in resources as the most viscous bull market he has seen. Rick suspect that this bull market, when it gets underway, will be very, very generous.

Mr. Rule has dedicated his entire adult life to many aspects of natural resource securities investing. In addition to the knowledge and experience gained in a long, successful and focused career, he has a worldwide network of contacts in the natural resource and finance worlds. As Chairman of Sprott US Holdings, Mr. Rule leads a team of earth science and finance professionals who are experienced with resource investment management. Mr. Rule is a frequent speaker at industry conferences, and is interviewed for numerous radio, television, print and online media outlets concerning natural resource investment and industry topics.

This week we are kicking off the relaunch of Palisade Radio to mark our one year anniversary and over 100,000 views to date. We have put together an all star line up of industry experts that include Jim Rogers, Doug Casey, Eric Sprott, Rick Rule, Frank Holmes, James Turk, and today on the show with us is renowned investor Marc Faber.

When speaking about an imminent stock market correction, Marc Faber argues that since the market hasn’t had more than a 10% correction since 2011, it is likely that we will se a 30-40% decline in the not to distant future.

Marc has witnessed many bull markets and crashes in his career. Marc says that bull markets frequently go on for longer than expected, but the current bull market is already very old, and has been going up steeply since 2009 – in other words, more than 5 years old. “The one thing I can say, is that we are in a aging bull market, and the recovery has lasted longer than the typical recovery phase over the past 100 years.”

We ask Marc if the Fed’s current slowdown in tapering will be reversed in a stock market correction? Marc points out that whenever there is a problem with liquidity in the markets (1988, 2000, 2007), the Fed has stimulated the economy by injecting liquidity, so it’s not unlikely that the Fed will again try to support assets markets. The problem is when this goes on long enough, numerous assets aren’t affordable for the majority of people. The impact of this may be negative for the economy, because some asset prices may rise disproportionally in comparison to other prices.

On the multi year low in mining equities, Marc says that general assets are very high right now. And the only asset class that in Marc’s view are beaten down now are the gold and silver mining shares. When looking at the Dow Jones Index in comparison to the GDXJ(junior gold mining stocks index), the underperformance from the GDXJ has been colossal. As a contrarian or as a value investor, Marc sees reasonable value in the gold mining stocks right now. Government bonds and other assets are essentially inflated, but the gold mining stocks are deflated.

Speaking on the influx on gold into Asia… Marc thinks it’s an interesting situation, because in the west we have rumors of central bank’s manipulation of the gold market to keep the price depressed. Marc believes that these rumors are insensible – the West should want to sell their gold at a high price, not at a low price point.

Finally, in the last 20 years, there has been a huge increase of wealth in Asia. The increase in gold purchases in Asia, comes from a growing population, and a population which is increasingly affluent. Marc says that in terms of the Asian stock markets, they are relatively depressed in comparison to the US stock markets, and there is better value there.
