Gold prices are high right now and they are聽 expected to stay high for the rest of 2022,聽聽
[6]
even 2023. One of the best ways聽 to benefit from high gold prices聽聽
[10]
is to buy these specific stocks and, in this聽 video, we will talk about exactly how to do聽聽
[16]
that. I want to keep this one short so if you're聽 interested, stick around and let's get started.
[26]
High gold prices are great聽 and, in my previous video,聽聽
[29]
I talked about why I think gold prices will stay聽 high or even go higher. Still, gold has a massive,聽聽
[36]
massive market cap of over $12 trillion dollars聽 and it is hard as hell to move the price. So,聽聽
[42]
if you want to make a really good profit, gold聽 is probably not the asset for you. Instead,聽聽
[47]
you can buy mining companies which specialise聽 in gold, basically gold stocks. Why? Well,聽聽
[53]
those gold mining companies can afford to leverage聽 themselves and benefit a lot more from rising gold聽聽
[58]
prices than you or me. Plus, a lot of these聽 companies have their business models built聽聽
[63]
around gold prices of $1,200 to $1,400 and so on.聽 Right now, we are expecting gold prices to average聽聽
[71]
$2,000 for the rest of 2022. What that means聽 is that those companies will get an incredibly聽聽
[76]
massive boost to their earnings at no cost to them聽 at all. No change of business required! This means聽聽
[83]
increased stock buybacks, increased dividends聽 and increased stock prices. Now, this is great,聽聽
[89]
but it doesn't help a lot if you are not familiar聽 with the gold stocks currently on the market.聽聽
[93]
Luckily for us, there is a way to get around聽 that. How? Simple. Just use an index fund. We have聽聽
[100]
exchange-traded funds like GDX which is the VanEck聽 Gold Miners ETF and RING which is the iShares MSCI聽聽
[107]
Global Gold Miners ETF. If we compare their聽 year-to-date performance to the price of gold,聽聽
[112]
we can see that they have outperformed gold聽 by almost 200%! As of today, 25th of March,聽聽
[118]
gold has gone up by 8.4% year-to-date聽 whereas the GDX ETF has gone up 22.9%!
[126]
Now, it's important to know that the price of聽 gold stocks is not perfectly correlated to the聽聽
[131]
actual price of gold, but there is a strong聽 relationship. The expected future price of聽聽
[136]
gold has a stronger correlation to gold stock聽 performance, but like I said, we are currently聽聽
[142]
expecting high prices of gold in the next 12 to 24聽 months so this is good news for gold stocks. Also,聽聽
[148]
gold stocks are more volatile than actual gold聽 so they go up higher that gold in bull markets,聽聽
[154]
but they also drop lower than gold in bear聽 markets. What you want to do is buy gold if you聽聽
[160]
think that the price is more likely to drop and聽 gold stocks if you expect the price to go up. But,聽聽
[166]
there is an even better way to take advantage of聽 high gold prices and that is by using a leveraged聽聽
[171]
gold miners fund like NUGT which is the Direxion聽 Daily Gold Miners Index Bull 2X Shares. Basically,聽聽
[179]
NUGT is a leveraged fund that tries to聽 double the performance of ETFs like GDX.聽聽
[184]
Again, gold stocks are great in bull markets,聽 bad in bearish markets. When you add leverage,聽聽
[190]
you double the effect. NUGT is amazing during聽 bull markets, but it is also really, really聽聽
[195]
painful during bear markets so be extremely,聽 extremely careful with that. NUGT is best for聽聽
[200]
short-term trades where you see a good bullish聽 potential and you should avoid staying in it for聽聽
[205]
the long term. I've personally made some really聽 good gains with that ETF, but I've also taken聽聽
[210]
an extremely nasty hit when gold prices dropped聽 by almost 5% in a single day during last summer.
[216]
So, there you have it guys, this is how you聽 can make the most of rising gold prices.聽聽
[221]
Gold stocks and leveraged gold ETFs are great聽 tools if you know how to use them, but you need聽聽
[227]
to be very careful because they are a lot riskier聽 than holding actual gold. Make sure you also check聽聽
