LONDON/NEW YORK (Reuters) - Shares of global information company Thomson Reuters Corp fell in their debut on Thursday on concerns over a financial industry downturn.
The new company, formed by Thomson's purchase of Reuters for more than $16 billion in cash and stock, hopes its portfolio of products, ranging from financial to legal and health care, will help it ride out the credit crisis.
The combination allows Thomson to expand its financial data offering from its North American base, and is meant to help Reuters reduce its exposure to financial markets.
Even so, brokerage ABN put a "sell" rating on the stock, arguing that the financial industry is facing big job cuts and takeovers.
Goldman Sachs analyst Peter Appert, who has a "neutral" rating on the stock, offered a similar downbeat assessment.
"The timing in some respects couldn't be worse," Appert said. "You are dramatically expanding your exposure to the financial services industry at a time when the financial services industry is arguably facing its toughest environment in the past decade."
Indeed, Merrill Lynch said on Thursday it would cut 2,900 jobs after a $2 billion quarterly loss.
Shares in Thomson Reuters, which announced that it may buy back up to $500 million of its shares over the year, fell around 5 percent in Toronto and New York.
The London shares also fell and traded at a discount of about 13 percent to the North American-listed shares.
Analysts had expected the London-listed shares to trade at a discount to the Toronto shares, citing the changing shareholder base and the unwinding of arbitrage trades that had bet on Reuters shares rising to the Thomson offer price.
Thomson Reuters, headed by former Reuters chief Tom Glocer, sells electronic news and data to traders, fund managers and analysts, as well as databases and other information to lawyers, accountants, scientists and the health-care industry.
The new company, with headquarters in New York, has annual revenues of $12.5 billion, 50,000 employees and more than 40,000 customers in 155 countries.
Glocer, a former mergers and acquisitions lawyer, envisions a company that will provide "intelligent information" that people will pay for, he told Reuters in an interview.
"It's not just: 'Isn't it nice that instead of Reuters having 90 percent-plus concentration in financial, there'll be a more hedged, balanced portfolio," he said.
"What I think is more interesting is all of these units are going to work together over the long haul."
Thomson's publishing roots date back to 1934 when Toronto native Roy Thomson bought The Timmins Press in Northern Ontario.
The Thomson family has since been involved in textbook and newspaper publishing, at one point owning the Times of London.
Thomson sold The Times in 1981 and sharpened its focus on data publishing when it sold its North Sea oil interests in 1989 and Thomson Travel in 1998 and education business last year.
Reuters started in 1851 when German-born Paul Julius Reuter transmitted stock market quotes between London and Paris on the Calais-Dover cable. Before that, he used pigeons to fly stock prices between Aachen in Germany and Brussels.
This was the beginning of the Reuters news service, which now has 2,400 journalists and became the foundation for a $5 billion-a-year news and financial data empire.
The newly formed company's markets division with $7.4 billion in annual sales competes with Bloomberg LP for financial industry clients.
Bloomberg and Thomson Reuters each have about a third of the global financial data market, according to Atradia Consulting Director David Anderson.
Rivals also include Dow Jones & Co, now a unit of Rupert Murdoch's News Corp, and Anglo-Dutch publisher Reed Elsevier. Reed owns the LexisNexis legal database, a competing offering to Thomson's Westlaw, and competes with the company's $5.1 billion-a-year professional division.
The credit crisis, an economic downturn and meltdowns among investment banks such as Bear Stearns could hurt providers of financial data tools and products.
"A growing number of brokers, dealers, traders and banking staff will be sacked," Atradia's Anderson said.
Glocer, on the other hand, said the company was benefiting from hot demand for foreign exchange and energy data and was less exposed to problem areas like mortgage desks than rivals.
The group's first-quarter results next month will provide the first opportunity for a "candid outlook" for the enlarged group, Credit Suisse said.
"It's obviously challenging times," said Thomson Reuters Deputy Chairman W. Geoffrey Beattie.
But he added that information providers had not kept up with the breakneck growth in industries such financial services, tax, accounting, science and health in recent years.
"So the absolute growth of those industries in my mind is not as important as our ability to catch up and serve those businesses as they continue to grow," he said.
The company's immediate priority is to marry the Reuters array of financial products, such as the flagship 3000Xtra, with Thomson's products, such as ThomsonONE, which includes FirstCall company profit estimates.
Down the road, the challenge will be to integrate the financial products with the professional services.

Cisco Predicts a Big Surge in Cloud Traffic
There's a lot to cheer for cloud companies, as the rate of global cloud traffic is likely to see a big surge within the next few years. According to Cisco's Global Cloud Index Report, cloud traffic is all set to quadruple by 2020, representing a whopping 92 percent increase in total data center traffic. Over the next four years, cloud traffic is expected to rise 3.7 fold, up from 3.9 zettabytes (ZB) per year in 2015 to almost 14.1 ZB by 2020.
Region wise, the Middle East and Africa region will see the maximum increase, as the CAGR for this region is expected to be 34 percent. These high numbers are mainly because this region has the lowest number of data centers in 2015 at about 105 exabytes, and this is expected to increase to 451 exabytes. The second fastest growing region is North America, with a CAGR of 27 percent. The numbers here are expected to increase from 2.2 ZB to 7.1 ZB over the next four years.
This phenomenal growth rate can be attributed to many factors. Firstly, more companies world over are moving to cloud architecture because of the obvious benefits that come from it, such as scalability and flexibility. Cloud architecture allows companies to scale up or down quickly and efficiently, and at the same time, they can support more workloads when compared to traditional data centers.
Secondly, cloud providers are able to achieve greater levels of efficiency than before, due to advancements in technology, and the emergence of greater data center virtualization choices. This report brings out this connection between efficiency and increased workloads. It states that business workloads will increase 2.4 times between now and 2020, but the workload on data centers will go down from 79 percent to 72 percent. These numbers go to show how cloud providers are expected to improve their efficiency to reduce workload on their data centers.
Thirdly, the use of data centers has increased among non-business entities too. Large amounts of consumer data, powered by social media, is also handled by these data centers. In addition, data centers have also become hubs for delivery of content such as Netflix. Fourthly, the emergence of technologies like machine-to-machine learning, and Internet of Things (IoT) are expected to generate tons of data, that will be stored and analyzed in data centers. All these factors are expected to contribute to the surge in cloud traffic by 2020.
To make the most of this increase, Cisco has released a new product in the storage optimized server category. Known as the Unified Computing System (UCS) S-Series, this server has the capability to handle data-intensive workloads like big data, unstructured objects, and more. This product is expected to reduce the total cost of ownership (TCO) by almost 50 percent when compared to cloud.
Cloud providers, including top players such as Amazon, Microsoft, and Google, are also expected to widen their offerings to make the most of this surge in cloud traffic. In all, the future is sure to be a cloud-driven one.

|Saga comments on the launch of FirstStop Care Advice
|As the Government works on plans to reform the social care system, a new survey reveals that two thirds of adults over 35 are concerned about the future cost of care and accommodation facing them or an older member of their family. The survey has been timed to coincide with the launch of FirstStop, a new service for older people, their families and carers seeking advice on care, housing and finance. The care funding system, which varies across the UK, is notoriously complicated and constantly changing. As a result, many older people and their families are struggling to navigate a maze of information. Of those questioned in the survey who had recently been involved in a decision about care and accommodation: 61 per cent said they felt worried that they'd made the wrong decision about care 44 per cent said they found it difficult to find sources of independent help and advice Almost three-quarters said the process would have been much easier if they could have accessed information from one source. The cost of care could be the biggest financial burden many people will ever face. Residential care home fees have increased by 51.5 per cent in the last five years and costs are predicted to double in the next 20 years. The survey was conducted by three of the UK's leading charities - Help the Aged, Counsel and Care, and the Elderly Accommodation Counsel – as well as NHFA (one of the UK's leading specialist, independent financial advisors) for the launch of their collaborative advice service FirstStop. FirstStop is a single gateway to free, independent information and advice about all aspects of care, housing and finance for older people. It will equip older people, their families and carers to understand their rights and options and make informed decisions about care, housing and finance. FirstStop aims: to become the UK's leading source of independent, clear and direct information and advice on any kind of care for older people to be a sustainable service for the long term, supported equally by charitable funders, Government and commercial organisations to provide an accessible service to all older people, their families and carers. The FirstStop Advice Line opened in July 2008, and is staffed by trained advisors in each of the four partner organisations. Counsel and Care for the Elderly is a national charity, which gives advice and information to older people, their relatives and carers on community care, care homes and housing with care. Elderly Accommodation Counsel (EAC) is a national charity specialising in providing information and advice on Housing and Care Choices and issues for older people throughout the UK. Help the Aged is an international charity whose mission is to secure and uphold the rights of disadvantaged older people in the UK and overseas. HtA operates Seniorline, a telephone advice and information service available throughout the UK for older people, their relatives and friends. The Nursing Home Fees Agency, NHFA Limited, is a member of the HSBC Group. NFHA's care fees advisory service provides financial and care advice on the many complex financial and legislative issues older people or their families face when considering paying for care. Advice is given to all regardless of means through a telephone helpline, by post and over the internet.

When gunman Sueng-Hui Cho burst into a Virginia Tech classroom building and fatally shot 32 students and professors and wounded 17 others in April 2007, law enforcement officers from all over Southwest Virginia responded to the 911 alarm.
The Friends of Andrew Jackson State Park gathered at the park's main shelter for its annual volunteer appreciation picnic June 2.
After enjoying their fill of hamburgers, baked beans, cornbread salad, watermelon and homemade strawberry, banana and chocolate ice cream, they headed into the amphitheater for the main event – the presentation of the group's annual Volunteer of the Year award.
Mac Horton is a loyal man. He holds onto things for life, especially things that matter. Like memories and the people who made them.
Blessed with exceptional listening skills, a photographic memory and a knack for words, he wrote a book, "Tales From Shelter Rock and Beyond," about growing up in Heath Springs in the 1960s.
James McMeekin Horton was born in 1953, the last of three children to Ward Beecher Horton and Mary Evelyn Caldwell Horton. He's been called "Mac" for as long as he can remember.
David Kellin
For The Lancaster News
The audience has spoken and the winners are…
On Saturday evening, the Community Playhouse of Lancaster County held its annual Rosie awards at the Carole Ray Dowling Center.
Each year, audiences at each performance vote for their favorites in a number of categories. These votes are tallied, awards are created and kept secret until the night of the Rosies.
An Indian Land woman is hoping to be named South Carolina's 2017 NAACP Woman of the Year.
Through her participation in the 39th annual contest, Robin Massey-Kirk is trying to raise money to support the NAACP's legal, civic engagement and youth initiatives.
The winner, who will be announced June 23 at the S.C. State Freedom Fund Celebration in Columbia, is based on whoever raises the most money for the state's NAACP efforts.
It was a regular day of patrolling for Lancaster Police Officer Josh Kelly until something caught his eye – a lemonade stand set up by 4-year-old Kenly Banks in the Forest Hills neighborhood.
So Kelly decided to stop by.
"I thought back to when I was little and wanted to do a lemonade stand," Kelly said. "I didn't get a chance to do it, so I thought I could stop by and buy one."
And he did – paying Kenly $20 for a 50-cent cup of lemonade.
The job isn't just about making arrests.
Numerous activities are available for the youth of Lancaster and Chester counties this summer, thanks to a collaborative effort from the counties' 4-H programs.
Offered through the Clemson University Cooperative Extension Service, programs are available for every age group.
Scott Miller
Clemson University
CLEMSON – More youth across South Carolina are turning to 4-H to stoke their interests in science, new data show.
Participation increased 12 percent last year in the state's 4-H program, the youth-development arm of the Clemson Cooperative Extension. That follows growth of nearly 10 percent the year before.
4-H programs cover animal science, agriculture, science, engineering, natural resources, healthy living, leadership and more.
Free meals for youth ages 18 and younger will be available at four Lancaster County schools throughout June.
The program is funded by the S.C. Department of Education's Seamless Summer Option, a USDA meal program that provides meals for children in low-income areas during the summer.
For a hairdresser, the most important skill is wielding scissors and a blow dryer. The second most important is storytelling.
Cindy Rodgers, owner of Cutting Edge Beauty Salon in Lancaster, is good at both. And she brought a real tale back from her vacation in the Bahamas last month.
If you run into her, get her to tell you all about it. But in case you don't….
"Here I am, this hairdresser from this small town…. Then I get into this major mess!"

I've noticed family members getting depressed when they make plans then their Sig other cancel. Is this normal or extreme? I understand being disappointed but not depressed. If I've never had a girlfriend could I easily get like this? Is this based on the individual or how many relationships you've been in?
Most Helpful Girl
From a girl who is learning how to be in a relationship AND suffers from clinical depression, it really is based on an individual. I would say it's normal to be disappointed, but one should evaluate their self esteem if depression starts to overcome an individual based primarily on a relationship.
I've been with my boyfriend for 7 months, long distance relationship, and this is my first relationship. Sure, it's tough to hear that he can't call, or won't be able to visit sometimes, but I find solace in the fact that he still makes time for me and I do the same for him. We are very much so in love with each other and are aware of our imperfections. We also have a clear definition of what being in a relationship entails. I can't guarantee our relationship will be forever, but I can tell you for certain that I cherish every moment I get to text/talk/see my boyfriend.
It'a all about having a healthy relationship.00|00|0

Ae Dil Hai Mushkil Song Lyrics
Tu safar mera
Hai tu hi meri manzil
Tere bina guzara
Ae dil hai mushkil
Tu mera Khuda
Tu hi duaa mein shaamil
Tere bina guzara
Ae dil hai mushkil
Mujhe aazmaati hai teri kami
Meri har kami ko hai tu laazmi
Junoon hai mera
Banoon main tere qaabil
Tere bina guzaara
Ae Dil Hai Mushkil
Yeh rooh bhi meri
Yeh jism bhi mera
Utna mera nahi
Jitna hua tera
Tune diya hai jo
Woh dard hi sahi
Tujhse mila hai toh
Inaam hai mera
Mera aasmaan dhoondhe teri zameen
Meri har kami ko hai tu laazmi
Zameen pe na sahi
Toh aasmaan mein aa mil
Tere bina guzara
Ae dil hai mushkil
Maana ki teri maujoodgi se
Ye zindagani mehroom hai
Jeene ka koi dooja tareeka
Na mere dil ko maaloom hai
Tujhko main kitni
Shiddat se chaahun
Chaahe toh rehna tu be-khabar
Mohtaaz manzil ka toh nahi hai
Ye ek tarfa mera safar, safar
Khoobsurat hai manzil se bhi
Meri har kami ko hai tu laazmi
Adhura hoke bhi
Hai ishq mera kaamil
Tere bina guzara
Ae dil hai mushkil
Ranbir's Dialogue
Ek tarfa pyar ki taakat hi kuch aur hoti hai
Auron ke rishte ki tarah ye do logon mein nahi bant'ti, Sirf mera haq hai ispe
Ae Dil Hai Mushkil movie will be released on 28 October 2016. It is written and directed by Karan Johar.

Mark Bridger, 46, is the uncle of the little girl's two half sisters.
Detectives looking at the complex relationships of Mr Bridger's past, discovered that he had fathered two children with a woman called Elaine Griffiths. Mr Bridger and Elaine had Connor and Sophie in the 1990s.
Around the same time, Elaine's sister Karen had two daughters - Hazel and Abby - with April's father Paul Jones. He subsequently married April's mother, Coral.
The connection means that Mr Bridger's children are cousins to April's half sisters.
Abby, Hazel, Connor and Sophie all took part in the search for the little girl who went missing last Monday evening from close to her home in Machynlleth, Mid Wales.
Hazel and Abby wrote on Facebook about their "little sister" and also released a pink balloon in hope for her safe return.
Their mother Karen said: "The past week has been very hard and the community support for the family has been overwhelming.
"We are trying to focus all our energy on finding little April and staying strong for all the family members involved."
Police officers hold back members of the public as a prison van transports Mark Bridger from Aberystwyth Magistrates Court (Reuters)
Meanwhile it has emerged that children as young as seven will provide key evidence in the trial of Mr Bridger which is expected to take part next year.
The young witnesses, who have already provided video interviews about what they saw, are expected to provide further evidence via video link at the full hearing.
Mr Bridger, a former lifeguard and abattoir worker, has been charged with April's murder as well as child abduction and unlawfully disposing of and concealing her body with intent to pervert the course of justice.
He was arrested a day after April's disappearance and appeared yesterday morning via prison video link at Caernarfon Crown Court, 60 miles from the little girl's family home.
Police forensic officers enter Mark Bridger's house in Esgairgeiliog near Machynlleth (Reuters)
April was playing with friends when she disappeared and no sign of her has been seen since.
Police have said they are continuing an intensive search for her.
Mr Bridger, who was unshaven and wearing glasses and a dark top, spoke to acknowledge the proceedings and confirm his name during the 20-minute hearing.
He was remanded in custody to appear at a plea and case management hearing on January 11 at the same court ahead of a trial later in the year.
It will be overseen by Mr Justice Griffith Williams, a High Court judge who has previously presided over high profile cases such as that of Barry George, who was acquitted of the murder of presenter Jill Dando.
The judge said that April's family would be concerned "that the matter be brought speedily to trial" and asked for their input about where the trial should be held to cause them the least possible inconvenience.
He added: "Another consideration from my reading of the papers is that there will be some young witnesses who have been video interviewed. One of them I think is seven years old.
"The longer the delay in bringing the case to trial, the more difficult it is for witnesses of that age."
Police release April Jones abduction suspect details (PA)
Elwen Evans QC, prosecuting, said the search for April was "still ongoing", which would also have an impact on the legal timetable.
She added that "forensic, scientific and other expert investigations continue apace" while the judge commented that "matters may develop".
He added that there were a "sufficient number of uncertainties to make it impossible" to give a likely trial date but he added: "It should be understood that it will be tried on the earliest possible date in the New Year."
Details of what Mr Bridger has told police were not given in court but the judge said: "The Crown have notice of the likely defence in his account in interviews."
The judge said he felt the trial should be held in Caernarfon or at Mold Crown Court in North Wales.
He said: "Any decisions as to the court of trial will be made once I know what the views of the family and the witnesses are."
The judge said the youngest witnesses would give evidence via video link, probably from Aberystwyth, which is closer to Machynlleth than the trial venue.
At the end of the hearing, Mr Bridger, who is being held in Manchester, nodded and said "yes sir" after being told by the judge that he would remain in custody.
A pink ribbon, which has symbolised the hopes of those searching for April, was tied to railings at the front of the court.

How to make your mind up about your next Sleeper sofa
All eyes and thoughts are focused on your next Sleeper sofa. You also have the benefit of memory to fall back on. Most of these memories may have been unpleasant because they recall sleepless nights in your living room. For a while, you thought you had the perfect sleeping couch. This was mainly because it was cheap. But little did you realize at the time that where sleeper couches are concerned, buying the cheapest choice available to you almost certainly does not give you, let alone guarantee, a good night's sleep.
So, while there are still cheaper choices available, many who are pressurized through budgetary constraints will still be looking out for these, you no longer have to make the same mistake twice. Taking care of pricing arrangements, all you need to do is budget well. You can discern what you consider to be a reasonable amount to spend on a sleeper couch these days. Also think of it this way; take both a bed and a standard living room couch both of reasonably good quality and determine what it would normally cost if you bought both items.
Adding two and two together, you now have an accurate projection of what it's likely to cost you for a quality sleeping couch. The quality, however, is not determined by price alone. It takes into account a wraparound feature. And this feature entails how the couch looks in terms of style and color, how it feels in terms of fabrics and how comfortable it is for seating purposes.

From Landhi in Karachi to Krishan Nagar in Lahore, names like female vocalist Hadiqa Kiyani and youthful Shehzad Roy all of a sudden got to be commonly recognized names. Indeed, even heathen hermit virtuosos like guitarist Amir Zaki (whose simply instrumental collection "Mark" did well in the market) were getting the sort of airplay the huge groups of the '80s could just have longed for.

Pop industry had enormous turnaround when private channels came into the scene, Like IM which turned into the medium to present youthful abilities in the pop business names like Fuzon, Aaroh, noori, Aks, Ahmad Jehanzaib, Mizraab, Karavan, Ali Zafar, Jal which shake the Pakistani popular music as well as made their names around the world.
The fresh introductions made their nearness felt through surprising individual melodies, despite the fact that full collections for the time being appeared past most new acts. Ahmad Jehanzaib's Ek Bar Kaho, Fuzon's Ankhon Ke Saagar and Schehzad Mughal's Bas Yunheen were each great. The initial two were conveyed by profound, fervent vocals and the last shone through influencing verses.

Your Game Plan For Trading Gold
Click Here: Grab The Total Gold Trading Program
Yes gold stocks and gold are lined up for a good entry point trade now that should lead to big gains in the coming months and even years. And this goes for silver too.
For the past few weeks now I have been talking about this entry point in my videos, blog posts, and interviews you may have heard me do elsewhere.
So you should know that now is the time to act.
That's the trading perspective and it's important and fun, but there are three other reasons you need to get involved in mining stocks and gold investing.
I know the action in the US stock market dominates the minds of almost all American investors right now after the Trump election last year and the breakthrough of DOW 20,000 and now the runs in stocks like Amazon and Facebook and Nivdia because that is all they talk about on CNBC right now, but to do big things in the markets you cannot just buy and sell what everyone else is doing.
It's fun to be in the market when it is going up.
But it is even more fun to BEAT the markets!
And to do that you need to get into the right things.
You must avoid risky ETF's and toxic situations like JNUG and DUST unless you want to become a minute trading daytrader, because these things both decay overtime.
That's not me, I look to buy and invest in positions I expect to go up for months on end if not for years.
The thing is big things have been happening in gold and mining stocks for the past year that most people are still ignoring.
In 2016 gold stocks were the top performing sector in the entire stock market.
In fact the GDX gold stock ETF went up 52% in 2016.
In comparison Apple went up 7.9% and Facebook gained 9.9% in 2016.
To beat the market you need to be in the best sectors in the stock market.
The reason why gold stocks went up so much is because they started a new bull market in 2016.
Right now gold stocks are pausing and CNBC and the financial press in general has a tendency to only focus on what stocks are going up the most in any single day. That leads people to chase hype and not get in the best things on good entry points.
Now is the time to pay attention to mining stocks and move money.
Investors in gold stocks have been beating the market averages since the start of 2016 and even a position of just 20% of one's money in them to start that year out would have enabled one to beat just about every single hedge fund manager on the planet last year.
Even with the DOW rally.
But if you are not in gold stocks yet don't worry, because it is not too late.
Yes, you can seize the day.
I use TC2000 to track the stock market and the sectors in the market.
They say a bull market always starts in something new every year and in 2016 it was in mining stocks that a new bull market started. That is one reason why they went up so much.
In my view buying gold stocks now is like buying the DOW back in the summer of 2009.
Just look at the charts.
This is how they looked in September on their first big bull rally.
But after that first beg bull leg gold and mining stocks pulled back.
That's typical in a new bull market, because you usually see big gains off of the bottom and then a pause phase that can last from three to twelve months.
If you can remember what the US stock market did in 2009 the S&P 500 rallied like mad off of its March low that year and then paused in the summer.
Then it broke out to go up for years.
That summer pause made for a nice entry point and I believe the current consolidation pause in gold stocks is doing the same thing.
All financial markets move in cycles and gold simply started a new bull cycle last year. It is the simple and the obvious that leads to big investing gains when you act on it.
There are really four stages to any given market cycle. Gold had been a terrible stage four bear market that ended last year and began way back in 2011. It then went through a stage one basing phase that completed in the first few months of 2016.
The stage two bull phase started when gold broke though it's long term 200-day moving average in February of that year as you can see below.
Now I'm not going into huge details right now about stage analysis as I wrote a book best selling book in 2010 on that topic called Strategic Stock Trading if you want to go in depth about it.
What is important for you to know today is that most stage two bull markets last from three to five years, but with all of the financial problems in the world and currency woes this one is likely to become one for the record books when it comes to gold much like the 1970's bull market was. This is why so many people think that gold is going to reach the $10,000 per ounce price in a few years.
The thing is it doesn't even have to go up that much for gold stocks to go up more than anyone can imagine from where they are now.
The funny thing is that a lot of people buying gold today based on predictions of $10,000 an ounce of gold imagine that they are going to get rich one day.
In reality big gains are being made right now by people that are in the right mining stocks, because mining stocks are going up faster than gold is!
There are junior mining stocks doing better than even the GDX is.
And the thing is making money in the financial markets is not about predicting the future. It's about understanding what is happening now that others do not understand and acting on it! It's not about dreaming about tomorrow but seizing the day today!
You see the important thing for you to do is not to put your trust in predictions about the future, but to know why the current price of gold is making the stocks go up so much already.
No one can predict the future and smart investing is not about predicting the future anyway.
Let me explain.
Gold stocks go up more than gold does.
The Real Reason Why Gold Stocks Go Up So Much
There are gold mines all over the world and last year it cost on average $1,200 for these mines to generate a single ounce of gold.
The price of gold though was falling for years and even fell below $1,200 an ounce in 2014 and stayed below it for months in 2015.
Bear markets can bring extreme selling and that is what happened.
Yes there are many efficient mines that do produce below $1,200 but what happened is that many mines had to shut down and so a lot of production came off the market.
The bear market also caused investor interest to fade when it came to putting money into mining deals.
So many small mining companies went under.
Only now are some of these once dormant mines coming back online and this year investor demand for gold is outstripping production.
A major secular low in the industry simply occurred in 2015.
So one reason that mining stocks are going up so much now is that they are recovering from depressed levels. That's why in the first year of a bull market you can see stocks go up for months on end without pulling back. That's what the S&P 500 did in 2009 for instance.
It is no shock that one of the worst bear markets in mining stocks ever is generating one of their greatest rallies ever.
And it is not over, but there is something key about gold stocks that few understand that you need to know.
Everyone knows that the stocks that go up the best in the stock market are stocks of companies that are rapidly growing their earnings and bottom line.
What few understand though is that with mining stocks a one dollar rise in the price of the price of gold has an exponential impact on the earnings of mining companies.
There is a money multiplier effect for earnings growth that benefits shareholders.
Let me explain.
Imagine there is a mining company whose cost of production is $1,200 an ounce and gold is trading at $1,250.
That means the mining company is making $50 per ounce of gold.
Now let's say the price off gold goes to $1,300 an ounce for a 4% increase.
Well the mining company is now making $100 per ounce of gold instead of $50.
So you see how a 4% increase in gold prices can mean 100% earnings growth for a mining stock.
This is why mining stocks are going up so much this year and are simply going to go up and up more than people are thinking.
Wall Street analysts have yet to upgrade their earnings estimates for mining companies properly. Buy upgrades will come.
As I write this 15 Wall Street analysts are covering NEM and all of them have price targets lower than its currently trading price and none have a strong buy on the stock.
The same is true with ABX. The 22 analysts that cover it have an average price target of just $18.71 for it, which is below its recent closing price of $23.16.
They are going to have to upgrade these stocks and put higher price targets on them or they will look silly.
That will cause mutual fund managers to chase.
Think about this question - how many people do you know personally that own mining stocks?
I'm sure some of those people will end up being buyers of miners someday.
But it is always the early bird that gets the worm.
Grab it!
Of course the best mining stocks will go up the most and go up faster than the popular gold ETF's are doing and even more than big caps like NEM and ABX do too.
This why I have been buying individual mining stocks this year and almost every single month and am going to buy more and more of them.
And I think you need to take advantage of this.
There is a second reason that you need to get involved in gold. Even though the masses are asleep on gold one day everyone is going to begin to view it as a necessary investment.
Most American investors have been trained to believe that safe investing means putting half of your money into the US stock market and half of your money into bonds.
The idea is that bonds are safety.
And historically bonds will actually go up when stocks fall as people take money out of "risky" stocks and move it into "safe" bonds.
Since about 1980 when stocks have fallen bonds have gone up.
So this investment strategy has worked for the past few decades.
But there have been times in history in which bonds and stocks go down AT THE SAME TIME.
That happened for years during the 1970's.
People are not ready for this.
We saw manic valuations in the global bond markets that have all of the makings of a secular top when negative rates were reached on government bonds in Europe.
In fact what we saw was the lowest bond yield's in world financial history.
Take a look at this crazy chart and you'll see what I mean:
Negative rates last year meant interest rates had nowhere to go up, but up! And they have been going up a little ever since.
This is important for two reasons.
When rates go up the value of bonds go down.
That means in the future there is a high risk that we are going to have a bear market in stocks and bonds at the same time.
That will smash people who think they are investing "safely" by having all of their money in both.
As time goes on more and more people will come to see that they need to put some money into something else that does not trade with stocks and bonds.
And that of course is gold, which historically has a low correlation to what the stock market is doing.
And that is why gold is going to become a necessary investment for people.
Gold can go up anyway without big trouble blowing in the financial system.
It did from 2000 till 2008 and did again from 2009 till 2011.
And gold stocks soared last year.
But if in a few years bonds fall into a bear market it will just be another reason for this new gold bull market to become a giant one.
And it just makes perfect sense from a diversification stand point to get involved now in the metals and mining stocks.
Now consider the third and perhaps most important reason you should get involved with gold and silver and the mining stocks today.
Sadly most people chase things AFTER they have gone up a lot. That's why the masses are not in gold yet despite the big gains in gold stocks last year.
It just needs to go up more before they will get excited.
Really when gold is around $1,200 an ounce CNBC stops talking about it and people lose interest.
When it gets above $1,300 an ounce though some people start to chase and buy.
And a move from $1,200 to $1,300 an ounce for gold means 50% moves in many mining stocks.
As I have been showing you in my updates I simply think now is the time to take an entry point in precious metals and mining stocks.
And so now is the time for you to get involved by grabbing my Total Gold Trading Program today.
Right now the GDX/GLD ratio has a simple triangle consolidation pattern that it is poised to breakout of. I think it can do it this week and once it is done this entry point will be gone.
And that is why today on DATE I opened up my Total Gold Trading Program for new members.
You see I try to time my offers to when there is something worth doing now in the financial markets, because people want results and I want you to get into my service at the right time before the golden train leaves the station.
I am not interested in telling you to chase something that has already gone up for months on end, but instead getting you started at a lower level with a good entry point.
While I put out a lot of free content in videos and emails my best information is always reserved for my private Power Investor members.
This is my inner circle of people.
They get all of my stock picks and always find out about them on the ground floor way before the general public does.
Every week I send Power Investor members a comprehensive PDF file going over what I see what is happening in the financial markets and my new trading ideas whether they be in ETF's or in individual stocks.
They find out what stocks I own and what I'm doing in my main portfolio.
You need to buy these stocks and get into my next new mining stock pick.
The last stock pick I mentioned in my free email list in a blog post was IDM Mining (I still have a position in it with 140,000 shares and 70,000 warrants).
It was trading 17 cents at the time.
I actually bought it in a private placement offering in April of 2016 for 9 cents a share.
I told Power Investor members about the deal and I have no doubt some got in the offering.
Others I am sure just bought it normally in their brokerage accounts around that price before it went over 17 cents (private placements can be complicated for people and you are locked into a four month holding period where you cannot sell the shares and many people do not want that restriction so they just buy the shares normally in their brokerage account).
But here is what happened.
It became a money multiplier.
And it looks like it is getting ready to go up again.
I only talked about it in the free newsletter after it went up for Power Investors, because they get in on the ground floor.
And this is only one stock we are involved in.
There are others and there are going to be more.
And there is no better way to maximize your potential return on the gold bull market than to get involved in this yourself.
Yes there are risks in stocks as there is in all investing, but you can see that mining stocks are now in a sweet spot.
Today you can get a free 30-day risk free trial to my Power Investor Service as a bonus to my Total Gold Trading Program.
Most people force you to pay a big up front fee sometimes for thousands of dollars to get into a group like this, but I believe I have the most valuable investment group on the planet and feel confident that you will agree once you see for yourself.
So the 30-day trial is simply included as a bonus to my Total Gold Trading Program. It's my total package for gold investors with everything I got that you need.
After 30-days the Power Investor membership will renew for $97.00 a month. So if you decide it's not for you all you have to do is cancel before the trial period is up and you won't be charged for it.
To get the trial you just gotta grab my Total Gold Trading Program package.
The first thing you'll get is my Gold Trader's Toolkit.
Introducing: THE GOLD TRADER'S TOOLKIT
The Gold Trader's Toolkit video course is perfect for beginners or seasoned traders alike who want to get involved and master the gold markets.
One thing in it you will learn is how private placements work and what you need to do in order to get in them. Private placements typically allow you to buy shares of a mining stock with a warrant attached to them and sometimes they allow you to buy shares at a discount to their exchange trading price.
These modules will show you how to get into insider gold mining deals, how to pick the best mining stocks, how to construct your own gold trading system via ETF's, and how to use our model rebalancing portfolio system involving one simple trade a week in gold. This system is not a black box system or one using complicated indicators, but one based on a simple mathematical principle.
Once you The Total Gold Trading Program you will get instant access to these videos and accompanying PDF materials.
Here are the modules you will get:
You are starting to get an idea of the power of mining stocks, but there is more.
Along with the six modules in the Gold Trader's Toolkit if you get the bonus Total Gold Trading Program you also will a new mini-course I developed in January as a one time offer.
I sold it right after New Years and then put it up for sale on Amazon.com as a DVD for $47.00.
This course is about how to identify the best sectors in the market to invest in and WHEN to enter them using this specific entry point strategy.
It's not about chasing like you see on CNBC where they tell you to buy whatever is up the most in any given trading day, but to analyze how sectors are moving against the market at the right time.
What this bonus contains is a simple 60 minute online video and PDF transcript.
And I actually plan on releasing this mini-course again as a stand alone course sometime in the coming months, but right now you can get it as a bonus to the Total Gold Trading Program!
BONUS: My Top 15 Big Cap Mining Stocks To Buy
And you will also get a huge bonus that can reduce the management fees you may be paying in your account with mining stocks and boost your dividend payments.
If you own the GDX ETF you are paying a 0.52% annual management fee and getting a 0.24% dividend that pays only once a year.
The 2X and 3X ETF's that are so popular typically pay no dividend and have management fees over 1% in them and DECAY to act destroy portfolios.
In the long-run these 3X ETF's drain your account out if you are looking to invest in this sector and hold for a few years.
Well you can escape those fees and decay problems and get bigger dividend payments by buying these 15 big cap mining stocks that are in the GDX and NUGT ETF's anyway!
All together these 15 stocks will pay you a 1.49% dividend.
If you were to put $100,000 into GDX and bought these stocks instead you can make make over $2,000 more a year!
This report is essentially my top 15 big cap mining stocks to buy and you will get it as another bonus today. And I personally own all of these stocks.
Let me explain more about what you will get in the Power Investor Trial. It will give you access to my model portfolio which invests in a mix of exchange traded funds to invest in simple positions in order to take advantage of the changing trends of the markets. This portfolio typically invests in up to five exchange traded funds at a time. So this will tell you what I think are the best five ETF's to invest in.
For more short-term trades you will also get access to my top individual stock trading, options trading, and commodity trading ideas every single week. So you will know exactly what stocks I am personally the most involved in and think are the best ones to own and even ones I like to bet against for stock market drops. I short stocks too and spend hours and hours a week looking through stocks to find the best and worst ones for you in this service. It's about finding trades that work.
And yes that means my best mining stocks and even private placement ideas.
What you will get as a Power Investor subscriber is a PDF research report from me every week in which I go over what is happening in the stock market, metals markets, commodities world with trading setups and any changes being made to my model portfolio revealed.
Reading this PDF report every week will keep you informed about everything going on in the financial markets and give you a leg up on everyone else.
The Power Investor Service renews at the price of $97.00 every 30-days. Your first 30-days are free as a trial membership. If you decide it is not for you all you have to do is cancel before the 30-day trial period is over and you will not be charged anything beyond your payment for the Total Gold Trading Program.
Now you could also simply forget about the Power Investor Service and the bonuses and just get The Gold Trader's Toolkit course if you want. I would not do that myself, but if you have family members with no money to invest with yet who are simply looking to learn before they open up a brokerage account that option is available for you.
If you are looking to step up to the plate and drive some mining stocks out of the park The Total Gold Trading Program is for you, because it is the only way to get into the Power Investor Service.
