Brien Lundin, Editor of the Gold Newsletter and our host at the New Orleans Investment Conference joins us to delve into the precious metals markets, with gold now nearing $2,700, and silver over $32 an ounce.

The conversation covers key points such as the increasing participation of Western investors, the performance of gold and silver stocks, and the stock picker's market for gold equities. Brien delves into the margins seen by gold producers and the lag in stock performance, as well as the competition from other sectors like crypto and AI. We also highlight the importance of mining companies focusing on solid fundamentals, growth strategies, and dividends to attract new investors. Additionally, we discuss the impact of mergers and acquisitions in the mining sector and the potential for development stage companies to benefit from the current market conditions.
