[https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/newmont-nem-reports-q3-earnings-what-key-metrics-have-say](https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/newmont-nem-reports-q3-earnings-what-key-metrics-have-say)

Newmont was the first gold producer to post Q3 earnings. They blew out all of the estimates. EPS more than double last year.

I guess one could argue the price has already risen enough to cover that doubling of EPS. AVG Gold price was just over $3,500 so next Q will be even more. Will be interesting to see what happens to all of the next miners now that Newmont confirmed the AVG price.

The amount of debt these guys paid off in this year is wild too. assuming other co’s will step up thier buy backs and dividends which are mostly small now as a %.

The 2 really bad days this past week still didnt wipe out the last 4 weeks of gains so we’ll see what comes next. I’m not in Newmont.

I’d love to pour over a WSB thread on this but they dont seem to care?

I don’t see much gold discussion on WSB, it may be banned by the mods

If you can still find renters to cover the cost while the dollar falls, it would be even better.

Netflix (that I bought at $220) is about to do a 10:1 split and is currently at $1156. If I could just go back and buy more. 😂

Bro I was a multi decade holder of Nokia stock. Mostly kept it for the nostalgia and small divy. I finally sold it this year… only to miss the pump on NVIDIA partnership news, lol.

Get 15 min in. Been hearing more discussion around running gold to15k++ to retire massive debt…

Very interesting to think about. Getting rid of 20% the debt just with gold reset?

I’m not sure any of it matters as long as we can print money. Until that’s fixed, hedge. 👍

just putting this here…

I’m calling for $4,700 - $5,000 Gold in December over the holidays and $70 - $75 silver.

Today was insane and when this was happening in Aug/Sept Mondays were big gap up days.

yes it is but i’m now completely sympathetic to the notion that the US (and every other nation) now benefits from the repricing of their gold holdings to a much much much higher price to beef up the asset value (denominator) of thier balance sheets to make thier debt (numerator) seem increasingly irrelevant.

It’s said the US balance sheet has their gold pegged at $42 USD, meaning 1/100 the current market price. Stands to reason that $8,000 gold is in the interest of the US govt, and every other govt holding gold and then the same for $10,000 gold and so on…

We’ll see.

The Tether narrative is also insane… They are using crypto and stablecoins to convert all individuals in India, Indonesia etc. etc. into prospective, indirect micro-holders of USDT which are then used by Tether to buy US treasuries, Gold and BTC with the yield that is not passed on to the users.

Wild to see where this goes if true

Not a word about all this on Canadian financial news sites either… odd

I’ve been taking the slow and steady route with nuclear. 90% of my money goes into Index funds but this is one of my “lottery” tickets. I usually dump in $300 a month

Maybe I’ll buy some of those and some URNG and see what happens.

I should probably just keep buying more of the dividend stocks that get me money to buy more stock because I’m lazy.
