Picked up a few more NST today @ 3.29 Down quite a bit on these now; also down RRL and DRM. Still have chart concerns over head and shoulders patterns with lower targets: NST and GDX etf See GDX chart below (NST and RRL constituents of GDX) GDX etf daily [imgz=http://forums.silverstackers.com/uploads/1893_big_65.gif][/imgz]
I bought some stock in NST about a couple of months ago for $4.60. Then I watched it go down to around $3.80, then a couple of weeks ago in recent rally I sold it for $4.45. Glad I got out.
Many lack the vision, audacity and tenacity to undertake the perilous journey of investing in gold companies. Such persons exit from the vehicle early in the journey and aggrievedly note their scuffs and scratches. Its different pictures of animals on precious metal coins for them
looking back at these threads is a great way to see who knows their stuff. Without naming names i see at the creation of this thread the same person that call this stock overvalued also recommended a stock that failed . very interesting if they followed their own advice as they would have missed out on this ride up and lost on their own pick. Hmmmm.
Checkout GDX after last night's US interest rate hike Its only the daily chart but a very bearish candle and support around 20 looks questionable. NST a component of GDX, so is RRL and a few other Oz goldies GDX daily [imgz=http://forums.silverstackers.com/uploads/1893_big_71.gif][/imgz]
gotta love market logic - USD gold price down so the gold miners go down - even though the AUD gold price is unchanged Also looking at RRL now but on gross fundamentals NST seems better value
That wouldn't help. Just today I've noticed on my Comsec website that Morningstar analysts have downgraded NST's expected earnings per share to 2c fy17 and 15c fy18. I suspect there's only one analyst active and don't know whether it's worth posting. GDX confirmed its prior bearish engulfing daily candle with a gap down overnight. My target, $18 at a minimum and feel lower is possible, jmo. GDX daily [imgz=http://forums.silverstackers.com/uploads/1893_big_72.gif][/imgz]
NST, where is my conviction? Why aren't I buying? These questions will be answered soon - or maybe not.
I'm putting a limit on what I'll put into one gold stock, even NST, so I didnt add around $3 on Friday. However I would add @ $2.50 if it reaches that. Bounce tomorrow perhaps but, taken purely as a chart, lower strikes me as possible. Similarly RRL I might buy more if it hits 2.25 Got an email from Casey Research that features Jim Rickards enticing readers towards 'penny' gold stocks for the inevitable day when gold ($US) blows through $10,000 on the way to over $14,000. Northern Star should recover well.
Gold up strongly ~ $17-18 aud overnight, but largely due to continuation of drop of aud against usd. Gold in usd up only a few bucks and the GDX gold stocks etf up only 6c (.32%) at 19.08 Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree thinking of GDX as one guide to NST as GDX's holding of NST has slightly increased since I've been casually observing it - 37,214,796 shares now held at Dec 16 AUD/USD 5 day chart [imgz=http://forums.silverstackers.com/uploads/1893_z.png][/imgz]
Like Regis Resources (RRL), Northern Star (NST) put in a bullish hammer candle for the month of December. Could $3 have been the LOW? From almost $6, the stock retraced to $3. That's close enough to 50%, not a bad discount for a company like NST. I failed to add, hoping for another drop to 2.50 NST monthly [imgz=http://forums.silverstackers.com/uploads/1893_nst_mthly.gif][/imgz]
GDX, The Van Eck gold stocks etf which holds a lot of NST RRL EVN and other Aus Gold stocks has deactivated the head and shoulders that I was imagining. A head and shoulders or any other pattern isn't real, it's just an attributed pattern that might help in interpreting a chart. I take a head and shoulders seriously enough to never buy a chart with one - e.g ACX recently despite buy advice. GDXJ also had a strong break overnight, up 8.5% GDX has broken back above $22 'neckline' which means the H&S can be discounted for the time being. The price has also popped above the downtrend line of a channel. GDX daily [imgz=http://forums.silverstackers.com/uploads/1893_gdx.gif][/imgz]
NST is breaking above a reverse head and shoulders pattern here which looks hopeful for holders. Sloping neckline. Put a ruler across the last three peaks to get the idea. Volume on the break today was good. I suppose a break above 4.75 level will be more convincing. NST daily closing prices
You get a bit blasé about results like these. As the m.d implies, the real excitement will be when the organic exploration activities fully unfold (imo). Not to mention what a rampant gold price would do to revenue.

Northern Star’s total cash and investments rose by A$90 million to A$393 million, despite spending A$31 million on its organic growth strategy. The increased total takes into account for the first-time Northern Star’s $18 million stake in Superior Gold, the TSX-listed company which acquired the Plutonic mine from Northern Star. AISC for the quarter fell to just A$988/oz on 132,558oz of gold sold. The strong quarterly performance means Northern Star is comfortably on track to meet its FY2017 guidance of 485,000-515,000oz at an AISC of A$1,000-A$1,050/oz. It also demonstrates the outstanding future for Northern Star as its organic growth strategy increases mine life and production. Northern Star Executive Chairman Bill Beament said while the quarter’s results were impressive, it was the underlying message concerning the Company’s future cash generation which should be most satisfying for Shareholders. “The results provide a valuable insight into the future performance of this Company,” Mr Beament said.
Slightly makes up for yesterdays slump. Good quarterly report. Are you still accumulating? On a side note did you receive your dividends from the start of this month. I haven't seen mine yet.
I'd like a thousand more but will only buy if it drops below $4 Received the dividend April 6th. Did you return the registry form where one item is your bank details? Otherwise delay might be waiting for cheque?
