Past bear markets in Precious Metal Mining Stocks have been vicious since they are last in the production cycle as a commodity producer.

Past history of mining shares….

Unless these past three days are simply window dressing and short covering, then something meaningful may be occurring:

BIG GDX

Small GDX

The GDX represents several of the senior gold producing companies. The GDX has under-performed the gold price as represented by (SPDR Gold Trust (ETF) (NYSEARCA:GLD)) for about 5 years and especially in the past two years.  Note the radical change in the past two days as gold, ironically, fell below the all-in cost to produce an ounce of gold for the majority of mining companies.

Two days is just one sign, but a big one in my opinion. Until after the Fourth of July weekend, the true trend may be revealed since this is quarter end and before a long holiday next week. I am bullish for the long-term in SELECTED, WELL-CAPITALIZED companies.  Remember to do YOUR own thinking and correlation is not causation. I have been two to three months early and down 20% so far, but I sense a turn–finally?!  Prices are absurd.
