I know but not always, especially explorers who can’t get big investors to help them grow. Also if they expect a consolidation or bubble. I was looking how close we are to one. Not particularly in metals sectors but as far as stocks they can be pulled down with them. The bubble is already here. The saying this time will be different never is but as far as metals it will be in the future. They will recover, not all sectors will as things move more toward AI and what supports it including metals. What’s really picking up is the amount of stocks selling of those leading sectors is where the bubble is building not just by insiders while at the same time more money is moving into metals as one of the safe havens. It’s just one of many things to look at. I’m more interest in support and resistance for buying the phyzz but will stocks too. If I didn’t I would of lost gains in that last takedown. I stopped buying the silver at 70. So far it turned out to be a pretty good support number and gold under 5000 I think 4500 and that was pushing it. It’s not as much about growth but keeping what you already have, stocks that pay you vs speculation and exchanging phyzz verses paper for down the road to leave behind.
Woo Hoo! :-)

I have to laugh
When I see the scum pull off the same BS antics time after time. I think of little bullies having a temper tantrum…..
IMHO, I think every time they do this, it’s a good opportunity to add a few shares of the stocks that you like…and when they do pop a little higher, sell a few shares, but keep your core position.
Just me………
Shanghai is back in action
So, they’re getting a nice paper welcome from the west this am despite posting their pm fix all the way up at $97.35. Looks like supply in phyzz is tightening again, while supply in paper is plentiful. 🙂
Unfortunately, it looks like the paper guys are going to make us give yesterday’s gains back.
Pride comes before the fall.
post whatever you want about “my stock”
The fact is that I make a lot of money trading. I’m not some nervous Nelly that runs away from scary situations. I have 30 different stocks and tens of thousands of shares. So you keep doing whatever it is you like. Now, if you could just stick to the facts and bring something useful to the table, I would appreciate your contributions, but otherwise just remain silent. I don’t see you contribute very much to this forum, except for a lot of run-on sentences
goldie, don’t forget that executives often get paid with options.
Hycroft, being an explorer, not so much. So insiders selling is often more them realising income, rather than bailing on investments.
Hey Eeos
You might want to know this about your stock. I wonder what they know?
- ASX (Australian) Gold Miners: Executives and directors at Australia’s top gold mining firms have sold more than $67 million worth of shares in February 2026 alone. This selling occurred as gold prices hit a record $5,200 AUD ($3,400+ USD) per ounce.
- Americas Gold and Silver (TSX: USA): Insiders at this company have sold more shares than they have bought over the last three months, which analysts currently view as a “weak sign” for short-term valuation.
- Endeavour Silver (TSE: EDR): On February 21, 2026, an insider sold 100,000 shares (a 27% reduction of their stake) at an average price of C$18.99.
- Barrick Gold (NYSE: GOLD): Several directors, including Jeffrey Benjamin, have executed multiple sales in mid-February 2026, with transaction values ranging from $300,000 to over $1.4 million per sale.
- Freeport-McMoRan (FCX): While primarily a copper miner, its gold/silver-heavy operations saw insiders sell nearly $34 million in shares in February 2026, including significant position reductions by the CFO and Chief Accounting Officer.

- Hycroft Mining (NASDAQ: HYMC): Major investor Eric Sprott reported a massive $6.3 million purchase of shares on February 20, 2026, even as the stock traded well above typical “Fair Value” estimates.

- Portfolio Diversification: Executives are cashing in on “windfall gains” after gold’s 77% surge over the last 12 months.
- Profit Taking: With miners generating record free cash flow, many insiders are simply realizing gains at what they perceive to be historic high valuations.

Oh that’s good. Alaska is alright. Sorry about your cousin.

No worries. I’m only going inter-Island to Honolulu. 35 minute flight. Hawaiian Air… now owned by Alaska Airlines.
Trump
Showed the world he can be as misogynist as the next man because it is one of their Achilles heels, either chasing or from demeaning their achievement to patronizing women. Gets them in trouble every time but once that alter ego gets going as big hockey game it happens every time. Not only did the US men’s team win but so did the US women’s team. The women’s team worked just as hard but was met with condensing remarks from Trump pissing in their parade not even acknowledging their victory.
Telling the men’s team he’s going to have to invite the womens team too or he might get impeached. The woman told him that’s okay and passed on the invite.

My guess the miners moved on speculation mainly of supply shortages. From then on they will need to show consistent and or increasing revenues. Like work done then get paid.
Trump
On strong influence over the supreme Court. Although not that thrilled over Kavanaugh consolation statement over decent of Roberts, there are other ways.
Maddog
Yeah, I hope when that line finally busts it’s going to explode.
It seems to me that the producers are far outshining the no-producers at this early stage. I’m surprised there hasn’t been much in the way of buyouts or mergers in the sector so far. Maybe if we see some of that start to happen the non-producing entities will catch some speculative cash?
Gold
has only ever closed higher than this on two days 28 and 29 Jan @ 5415 and 5379…… and has never closed this Hi on Weekly or Monthly basis….
Buygold
Lets see what happens when that top line is obviously taken out, in the GDX/GLD ratio…..the world should change then.
maddog
yeah, we’re still not getting any leverage with the shares. OTOH, I remember a time not too long ago when 22 pts. on the HUI was a 5-6% up day and I’d be thrilled, now it’s 2% and I yawn. 🙂
The other thing is these shares are really a mixed bag. Some stellar performers and some just barely being dragged along for the ride. We are not close to the “throw a dart” at a miner and for sure you’ll make money just yet.

It’s wonderful that Newsom is so stupid that he didn’t censor himself. What’s he going to say next?

In Calif. who counts the votes? I’d bet big that there is a huge portion of voting hanky panky!
Also it shows how many unbalanced people there are. It’s the Zombie Ratio.
