Which way? A Gold Timing exercise

Favorite Gold stock Mick?

I'm looking at the GLD, and it sure looks like it wants to run.
What's the best individual stock though, if gold takes off?

My favorite has for a long time been AEM, AGNICO EAGLE.
In Australia, a couple of days ago my wife and I bought (fluke timing) CYL Catalyst.
We both bought some at the same time within a day or so.

I'm not keen on gold due to its fx type behaviour, I have difficulty timing it.
My wife though, loves gold, she studies their fundamentals and imo is pretty clever at it.
Wife, before she met me was partnered to a geologist who was also a trader, so she's a bit clued up. Married now, 2nd time around 10 years.

But AEM is the best imo. It looks like a very nice swing trading stock, easy!
There may be some on Toronto exchange, but for me ASX has more gold stocks, better choices.

There's some fantastic ETF's in US, the crypto etfs in particular are outstanding.
The ASX is basically a total shit market, brokerage fees sky high, data fees sky high, choices pathetic, brokers pathetic and basically run a cartel, try online to get info and live data on the SPI which is the asx200 futures - nigh on impossible, if not impossible.
The ASX Co is run by a bunch of old fools who won't retire.

The only thing going for it is it's very heavily weighted mining stocks, it's bucking bronco cowboy country, so many traders here are forced to trade penny type stocks.

The main trading chat forum in Australia, won't mention its name, is like a fucking kindergarten, full of pump and dump excited children.

Sorry to bitch, but America without a doubt has a classy market structure compared to this 50 years behind the times asx.

Mick I didn't want to go off topic down there in politics, but gold hit another all-time high. Part of me is worried something is gonna happen and the bottom is gonna fall out of these markets.

Gold is interesting in that what the price of gold does and what gold stocks do, are two different things, ie gold price rising does not automatically translate to gold stocks rising.
This has primarily to do with AISC, all in sustainable costs. Inflation creates headwinds to running a profitable mine.

Gold like all commodities has its day in the sun. Right now is that time.
Next year will be different.
Make hay while the sun shines as it won't last. :)
