Barrick Gold, Defiance Silver, and First Majestic Silver - Precious metals in focus after the fall of the debt ceiling
The US has decided to suspend its debt ceiling until 2025. The markets reacted happily to this news and marked new highs for the year. But is this decision really a good thing? It took the US over 200 years to reach USD 2 trillion in debt. Now it will add 2 trillion every 18 months. With higher interest rates, refinancing this debt could lead to a financial crisis. Will fiat money still be worth much then? Chances are good that the price of gold and silver will be driven up further in this way. We, therefore, take a look at three gold and silver companies.

Barrick Gold, Globex Mining, First Majestic Silver - The resurgence of precious metals
In uncertain times, gold is considered a safe haven and enjoys great popularity among investors. Due to the banking industry's irregularities and Silicon Valley Bank's bankruptcy, a shift from the risky stock market to the precious metals sector was already apparent. This was further reinforced by the wobbling of Credit Suisse. With the crossing of a prominent resistance, the yellow metal is now striving for new highs.

First Majestic Silver, Blackrock Silver, Xiaomi - Is the silver price about to rise again?
Silver significantly outperformed gold from September into February. In 2022, silver demand set a new record of 1.24 billion ounces at an average price of USD 21.70. This year, the Silver Institute projects an average price of USD 23. Increased interest rates mean investing in precious metals is less attractive. If the interest rate policy of the FED changes, which is expected for the second half of the year, silver should also increase significantly again. Especially since industrial demand is growing due to the expansion of renewable energies and the electronics industry cannot do without silver, to name just two sectors. We, therefore, take a look at three companies around silver.

First Majestic Silver, Blackrock Silver, American Lithium - Long-term opportunity
The transformation towards greenhouse gas-neutral technologies leads to a significant metal demand for corresponding critical raw materials. In addition to copper, nickel, lithium and cobalt, silver, in particular, is experiencing steadily increasing demand. In addition, the precious metal is increasingly required in medical devices, smartphones and microchips, among other things. After a correction that has lasted since 2020, the next upward wave will likely follow after a bottoming out. For investors, this is an opportunity for long-term price gains.

Glencore, Tocvan Ventures, First Majestic Silver - Analysts enthusiastic
After commodities such as copper, nickel and lithium had climbed to new highs since the Corona low in March 2020, a sharp correction followed from March of this year due to fears of a recession, which could well continue for a while. In the long term, however, a continuation of the long-term upward trend is expected due to high demand on the one hand and low supply on the other. In the case of gold and silver, the easing of the tighter monetary policy will likely lead to a trend change to the upside.

First Majestic, Manuka Resources, Barrick Gold - Has the bottom been reached?
Fighting inflation at all costs is the motto of the various central bank members in the US at the moment. Despite recession worries in the financial markets, the FED is determined to curb inflation with a tight interest rate policy. The fact that this has already gotten out of hand and is difficult to contain by further interest rate steps without driving the economy to ruin should be obvious, not only to economists. The first voices calling for an end to interest rate hikes are already being heard. This could mean the starting signal for a sustained upward wave of the precious metals.

Inflation, gold and silver - The pot is bubbling: Barrick Gold, Manuka Resources, First Majestic, Standard Lithium
The set-up for rising precious metals could not be better at the moment. Due to the enormous price surges for energy and technical equipment, the operating costs of mines are increasing, and exploration is also becoming more expensive. In the medium term, this should lead to declining production in the precious metals sector, especially since prices have been falling significantly for some time. However, physical availability is not given at the low spot prices, as an ounce of silver is currently still traded between EUR 23 and EUR 28. The converted spot price would be around EUR 19. We have interesting commodity stocks in focus.

Barrick Gold, Desert Gold, First Majestic Silver - Is it worth buying precious metals shares now?
Recently, the prices of precious metals went under the wheels, bringing back memories of the financial crash in 2008. Back then, the stock markets were also in a bear market and precious metals were considered a safe haven. But both gold and silver were sold off at that time. Subsequently, both precious metals rallied by almost 200% in gold and 500% in silver. The question is whether we have already found the bottom? The dollar's strength increases the price of commodities because the ounce is traded in USD. Add to that weak demand from China due to the zero-covid policy and rising interest rates. Today we look at three companies that own precious metals.

Barrick Gold, Ximen Mining, First Majestic Silver - Do precious metal stocks belong in the portfolio now?
Crises like the current Ukraine war or the steadily rising inflation are good for precious metals like gold and silver. According to the German Association for Precious Metals, demand for physical precious metals increased by at least 25% in the first three months of this year. Demand had already climbed by 31% last year. But not everyone can store precious metals safely. The alternative is to invest in precious metals companies listed on the stock exchange. We take a closer look at three candidates today.
