John says the markets are currently ‘punch drunk’ and says investors and traders need vision to look through the chatter. Atlantic are taking a ‘market neutral’ approach at present, and clients are seeing success with pairs trades and with larger mining stocks.
Looking ahead, John is looking for news on how much we’ve been drinking from Diageo #DGO, oil consumption and fuel pump activity from #BP and clues on the property market from Rightmove #RMV.
In summary, John touches on the upcoming launch of Atlantic Alpha, a market neutral hedged trading strategy that removes volatility, and provides some key points and trading ideas to help traders and investors in August.
- Keep your discipline, there are no points for bravery in these markets
- Watch the data…’Look Before You Leap’.

As investors await ECR’s Creswick assay results, Windidda survey confirms potential for Gold.
Anticipation builds on Creswick Assay results
ECR’s investors are eagerly awaiting the remaining assay results to be revealed from the whole-of-bag testing process at the Company’s Creswick Gold project.
If the partial assay results released on the 27th August 2019 are anything to go by, then investors definitely have something to be hopeful about. The 17 samples tested demonstrate a substantial increase in average gold grades.
The remaining 113 samples, which are expected to be released in the near future will provide an important insight into Creswick’s potential million ounce resource. So be sure to keep your eyes peeled for any announcements over the coming weeks.
Windidda Gold Project – Farm-In offer and Positive GeoPhysics survey
It’s not just Creswick grabbing attention though. ECR revealed at the end of September that they had been approached by a listed mineral exploration company to farm into their Windidda Gold Project in Western Australia.
Whilst ECR have decided not to proceed with the farm-in, another company looking to come on board is certainly an encouraging indication of the project potential.
ECR may also be expecting some better offers to come to the table. Given how sought after licenses are in the Yilgarn Craton, not to mention difficult to come by, such a development wouldn’t necessarily come as a surprise given that the area is home to around 30% of the world’s known gold reserves.
The decision to retain 100% ownership is also an indication of ECR’s own strong belief in its value and confidence in its ability to go it alone.
“We were fortunate to get the licences at the Yilgarn Craton, given the area’s excellent reputation” CEO Craig Brown told Mining Maven
“The permissions we have applied for currently are covered by a layer of other rocks, but, most importantly, underneath have significant exposure to that same critical greenstone belt that our peers are utilising successfully. The idea is that we want to drill down through the upper layers into the greenstone, where the large majority of the gold deposits in the Yilgarn Craton are contained. There has been some geophysics completed in the past that boast very positive indications for our work,” he added. 
On the back of this, ECR commisioned Western GeoPhysics to process and interpret existing airborne magnetic and ground gravity data. The survey results announced mid October 2019 noted that the depths to magnetic sources were shallowest on a highly magnetic trend striking NNW-SSE in the western half of the Windidda project area. Added to this, previous gold intersections drilled by North Ltd (NL) in 1998-2000 coincide with the highly magnetic units in the NL Bermuda project area, which lies outside the Windidda project area to the south.
This magnetic and mineralised ‘Bermuda’ trend projects into Windidda exploration licence application E38-3369, and the modelling results indicate shallow feasible drill targets there.
“The results of the study by Western Geophysics are most encouraging and demonstrate real potential for the discovery of gold mineralisation”, said Brown.
“The under-cover greenstone exploration model has been successfully tested to date by Greatland Gold at its Ernest Giles project located approximately 125km east of ECR’s Windidda gold project.”
Gold price rally could continue into the long-term
The push by ECR throughout the year to develop and expand its gold exploration activities could not have been timed better. 2019 has been a fantastic year for the precious metal. The gold spot price has rallied by over 25% during the past year, currently hovering around $1,505 per ounce and predicted to continue delivering long-term growth.
Several geopolitical and economic issues across the world have contributed to this incline and are likely to shape prices further.
From a volatile oil market, escalating concerns regarding the US-China trade war, ongoing Brexit uncertainty, talk of a global recession, negative bond yields and falling interest rates – all these are resulting in investors turning towards gold.
Speaking on Palisade Radio, Resource Maven’s Gwen Preston, discusses how global currencies are in a race to the bottom as countries compete for trade, and central banks continue to cut interest rates. She points to the uncertainty facing investors today, and how, as a result they are seeking a safe haven’ which is likely to be gold.
According to Gwen, “Gold can perform and is performing already against the strong US Dollar. When gold performs against a strong US dollar, it is the mark of a real gold bull market. So I think that is something to grant a lot of confidence to gold moves so far.’
Bloomberg’s October commodity update also expect gold’s rally to long continue, predicting that it will beat other commodities and reach record highs.
“Gold will remain at the top of the precious metals leaderboard, and its performance [will] accelerate into year-end. A definitive reversal in weakening global economic conditions should be needed to reverse this trend, yet further woes in 4Q appear the greater risk,” writes Bloomberg Intelligence senior commodity strategist Mike McGlone.
Looking beyond this, Frank Holmes CEO at US Global Investors predicts that extremely dovish monetary policies around the world and economic conditions could propel gold prices much higher, possibly even reaching $10,000 oz over the long-term.
ECR a potential steal
Such long-term predictions will certainly please the ECR board. Should the remaining assays from their Creswick site prove positive, the company might well undergo a substantial upward re-rating.
Unlike many of its peers though, ECR mitigates risk across a broad and diverse spread of projects. Hopes and aspirations are high for the Windidda Gold Project, as well as their three additional sites in Victoria, all of which are under active exploration.
ECR CEO Craig Brown certainly believes the company is well undervalued. “If ECR was listed on the ASX our market cap would be 3-4 times higher” said Brown after a recent ShareTalk evening. Sat at just 0.77p I’d have to agree with him. Either way, ECR’s story is one to keep an eye on.

Stocktube – Brand Communications CEO Alan Green highlights his small cap picks for 2018.
Brand Communications’ Alan Green highlights his small cap stocks to watch in 2018.
First on Alan’s hit list is Tertiary Minerals (LON:TYM).
Tertiary’s share price has been on a good run recently since it announced they’d signed an MoU with global commodities group Possehl to enter into an offtake agreement to support the group’s three fluorspar projects.
Possehl, which is part of German-based commodities business Cremer, will provide funds to develop the deposits and for any acquisitions Tertiary may make to bulk them up.
”All of the stars are in a row here and I think Tertiary Minerals are set for a great year in 2018”.
Next on his ‘ones to watch’ is Prairie Mining Ltd (ASX:PDZ).
”They’ve got two key coking coal projects – the flagship of which has been referred to by many in the industry as the most advanced coking coal project in the northern hemisphere, which is quite an accolade when you consider the other mines that are around”.
”Coking coal is a critical mineral … it’s vital for the production of steel and as we know the infrastructure throughout Europe and the UK will require a lot of steel in future – plus we have the burgeoning electric vehicle industry too”.
Shares in Advanced Oncotherapy PLC (LON:AVO), the developer of next-generation proton therapy systems for cancer treatment, shot up nearly 30% earlier this month after they secured £37.4mln of fresh funding, with £30mln of this coming from a new Chinese investor.
Green says ”The company’s at a very exciting phase now but even now it’s still worth around 40 million sterling and each of its machines will sell for around 45 million dollars … so there’s still I believe a tremendous amount of upside to come here”.
”2018 is the home run for them”, Green adds, ”Investors are in for a very exciting year”.
Green also chats through the investment case for Cadence Minerals (LON:KDNC).
Cadence is a mining investment company that’ve recently acquired up to 100% of six prospective hard rock lithium assets in Argentina from Lithium Technologies Pty Ltd and Lithium Supplies Pty Ltd.
They’re also invested in Bacanora Minerals Ltd (LON:BCN) who, a few weeks back, published the results of a definitive feasibility study for the Sonora lithium deposit in Mexico that valued it at US$1.25bn.
Plus they also have a stake in European Metal Holdings (LON:EMH) and its Cinovec project in the Czech Republic.
To round things off Alan gives a quick couple of comments on blockchain and crypto-currency and where he reckons there could be opportunities next year.
”The fact that this technology can connect pretty much everyone in the world is massive …and that’s why we’re seeing this huge explosion in the value of crypto-currency”.
