3 Gold Miners to Buy Right Now: AEM, AU, YGG, G, YRI

The recent rally in gold has been short lived as the lustrous yellow metal has pulled back below US$1,200 per ounce in early March of this year. This can be attributed to growing pressure from a resurgent U.S. dollar and weak oil prices.
However, despite these headwinds there are signs that gold will rebound, making now the time to invest in these three gold miners. 
Now what?
For 2014 Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. (TSX:AEM)(NYSE:AEM) delivered some solid operational results. These included record annual production of 1.4 million ounces of gold and a hefty 18% year-over-year increase in its gold reserves to 20 million ounces. (more)

3 Short Squeezes Just Waiting to Burst (ACN, DRI, JAH)

Short sellers came back to life in March, as bearish bets on the S&P 500’s companies increased by nearly 5%.
The increase in short interest activity is the result of an increase in volatility — unsurprisingly, some investors are getting more nervous that the recent highs are unsustainable. Given some of the short-term market indications, we can't disagree, but remember: Today’s increases in short interest represent tomorrow’s short squeezes.
 A short squeeze occurs when a highly shorted stock begins to move higher, putting pressure on the short sellers as they still have a liability to repay the shares they've borrowed. As would be expected, short interest increases when the market declines, setting up even more potential to jump into positions before the shorts start feeling the heat.
With that in mind, we are always scanning for bullish trading opportunities by finding the companies that have excessive shorting activity, despite retaining strong technical and relative strength leadership. (more)

Crude Oil, Transports & Google $GOOG

In this interview we discuss the importance of risk management and how to include opportunity cost into that calculation. I think the fact that Transports have yet to break out is a good example of this. We continued by pointing out the key risk levels in Crude Oil and a potential breakout in Google that we hope will come soon. We want to be buyers of an upside resolution to this year plus-long consolidation in $GOOG shares.

Nabors Industries Ltd. (NYSE: NBR)

Nabors Industries Ltd., together with its subsidiaries, provides drilling and rig services, and completion and production services. The company offers equipment manufacturing, rig instrumentation, optimization software, and directional drilling services. It also provides completion, life-of-well maintenance, and plugging and abandonment of a well. In addition, the company markets approximately 466 land drilling rigs for oil and gas land-based drilling operations in the United States, Canada, and approximately 20 other countries worldwide; approximately 445 rigs for land well-servicing and workover services in the United States; 98 rigs for land well-servicing and workover services in Canada; 42 rigs for offshore drilling operations in the United States and internationally; and 7 jackup units and components of trucks and fluid hauling vehicles.
Take a look at the 1-year chart of Nabors (NYSE: NBR) below with my added notations:

Starting in July, NBR declined steadily into December, and from there the stock started a 4-month, sideways move. During that sideways move, NBR has created an obvious resistance at $14 (blue). A break above that $14 level should mean higher prices for the stock.

The Tale of the Tape: NBR has a key level of resistance at $14. A long trade could be entered on a break through that level. However, if you are bearish on the stock, a short trade could be made on any rallies up to $14.

Chen Lin’s Secret to Finding the Next GoldCorp

by JT Long
The Gold Report

Chen Lin, author of the popular stock newsletter What Is Chen Buying? What Is Chen Selling?, knows the smart time to look for the next big gold company is when everyone else has left the sector. With China making moves to invest trillions in commodity-hungry infrastructure, Lin is traveling the world looking for the companies with the right projects in the right places making all the right moves. In this interview with The Gold Report, he shares some of the insights from his recent travels and discusses three companies with potential to be the next Goldcorp.

The Gold Report: You’ve written that the China-led Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) could lead to a boom in commodities. We recently saw that South Korea is joining a number of European countries and signing on, despite U.S. reservations. Do you see this as a threat to U.S. fiscal dominance?
Chen Lin: I think this is a first step for China. The country has a huge reserve, $4 trillion, much more than it needs on the balance sheet to stabilize its currency. The rest is wasted, collecting no interest. China made some huge mistakes in the past through poor acquisition decisions because of faulty lending standards.

3 Triple-Digit Stocks With Upside Potential of At Least 40%: Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL), Gilead Sciences (NASDAQ: GILD), NXP Semiconductors (NASDAQ: NXPI)

It's a common misconception among new investors, and one that even veterans occasionally make: assuming that a stock's price is the ultimate determinant of value.
Of the more than 7,000 stocks currently listed on U.S. stock exchanges, just 428 have a share price of $100 or higher. By comparison, there are more than 900 companies to choose from with a share price of $5 or less. The perception of being able to buy more shares of a lower priced stock, as well as the idea that it'd be easier for a $5 stock to double in value than a $100 per share stock, tends to lead novice investors and short-term traders away from some very trustworthy and high growth potential triple-digit price tag stocks.
