Why I'm Paying Urgent Attention To Gold Miner Stocks

Some patterns I'm noticing and how they fit into my plan to own gold, silver and miners.

As everybody knows, one of my favorite assets on the board right now for buying is gold miners. They are completely hated and totally undervalued, without even a semblance of pricing in the potential leverage they could gain from a spike in gold prices.

I could make the argument for gold seven ways from Sunday: I could talk to you about how it is real money, discuss commodity inflation, delve into its role as a hedge against both inflation and geopolitical and military risk, consider how BRICS nations are challenging the U.S. dollar as the global reserve currency, and explain how nations in the Middle East, as well as China and Russia, are hoarding the precious metal.

But if there's one thing that's apropos, especially given my piece on timing a couple of days ago, it's timing. Most of my readers already know why I love gold as a potential investment, but one thing I've talked less about is the timing of when I want to buy it in droves - more than just my usual recurring buys and speculation.
