Chen Lin: Gold Stocks Poised for Breakout

Chen Lin is an independent investor living the dream. Since December 2002, he's turned slightly more than $5,000 into nearly $1M through value investing and exceptional market timing. Now he believes gold producer shares are poised for a breakout. "Every gold producer is making an incredible amount of money, and the market doesn't appreciate that much. That's a very interesting phenomenon. One thing will happen—either gold has to come down significantly or gold shares will go up significantly. I believe it's the latter," Lin says. In this exclusive interview with The Gold Report, Lin shares some favorite gold producers and explorers, as well as some pulp and paper stocks he thinks have some upside.

The Gold Report: In 2002, you turned a little more than $5,000 into a portfolio worth close to $1 million in 2010. I am sure many people ask how you did that. Do you think you could repeat that success again in the current market conditions?

Chen Lin: It's one of the many accounts I am managing; in general, the accounts I manage have had similar performances; some more, some less. The results of my wife's IRA are published on miningstocks.com. There you can see it's pretty much consistent—about 100% a year average in the past seven or eight years. There are down years, like 2008; I was down by 5%; but in 2009, I was up 500%, so it was a very big year. The average is still at about 100%, maybe a little more. (more)
