Gold Showing Signs of Life   Gold Showing Signs of Life
February 28, 2001
  • The gold shares have strengthened, in tandem with the recent $12 move higher in the price of gold.
  • Gold lease rates have surged, a sign that supplies are tightening. Given that gold's recent upward move has been accompanied by short covering -- which implies reduced demand for borrowed gold -- we believe the metal rally may go further in the near term.
  • We remain constructive toward gold and gold shares. Our Buy recommendations include Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold, Newmont Mining and Agnico-Eagle Mines. We maintain Outperform ratings on Barrick Gold, Homestake Mining and Placer Dome.

We believe that the positive implications of the announcement are not yet fully appreciated by the market--and perhaps not even by the central banks themselves.
