The end of gas appliances

Don't stop the flaring of natural gas. Don't stop cattle ranching. Don't close landfills. Those would eliminate 78% of all methane emissions!

Instead, force commercial and residential  properties to comply with draconian rules for very little benefit.

First Majestic ($AG) Trade Ideas

Looks like my short call is going to be profitable and I can do another OTM short sale in June.  But the trend is a falling fast stock price. So I am going to buy more shares if this happens:

Nuclear Power is the only SOLUTION

FOOTPRINT

Wind farms require up to 360 times as much land area to produce the same amount of electricity as a nuclear energy facility
Solar facilities require up to 75 times the land area

ENERGY EQUIVALENCE

One nuclear power plant = 200,000,000 solar panels

Wall Street Cheating - Precious Metal Miners - Earnings Don't Matter?

The $GDX tracks the biggest gold miners in the world. Over the last 15 days, the top 5 companies (in the $GDX) reported their 2nd quarter earnings. Only one missed.

• Newmont (ticker: NEM) reported adjusted earnings of 83 cents a share, ahead of Wall Street’s consensus estimate at 78 cents.
• Barrick Gold (ticker: GOLD) reported a profit of 29 cents a share, beating forecasts for 28 cents.
• Franco-Nevada (FNV) came out with quarterly earnings of $0.96 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.94 per share.
• Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (AEM) reported adjusted earnings per share at 68 cents, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 58 cents per share.
• Wheaton Precious Metals Corp. reported adjusted earnings per share of 36 cents in second-quarter 2021, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 37 cents by a whisker.

But Wall Street doesn't care. This chart plots the price action over the last 10 days.

A top silver miner reported earnings yesterday. First Majestic reported 6 cents / share in the second quarter.Estimates were 1 cent / share. And the bots bounced this stock as well.

Exited the URANIUM trade $CCJ $URA #options #investing

On Friday, Cameco shares surged despite posting Q1 loss.  So I didn't look a gift horse in the mouth, and I took profits.

Gold does pay a dividend! Here is how you get it...

Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd - ticker symbol AEM. Paying a 1.2% dividend yield. Unlike other gold miners which could be nationalized (stolen), this company has mines in safe countries.

But my fav is GLDI which pays you monthly and is near a 52 week low. I own 300 shares as of today.
