“While it’s true that junior miners routinely rise and fall like a roller coaster, the opportunity that today’s dirt-cheap prices present is far from normal.To put it in perspective, remember when Lehman Brothers, Merrill Lynch, and Bear Stearns all succumbed to the subprime crisis? When the financial system itself seemed to be crumbling, and panicked investors were selling everything they could catch a bid on? Well, junior mining companies are as cheap now as they were then. Even if you go all the way back to 2002 – before the gold bull really got running, and gold was going for just $315 an ounce – junior miners still weren’t as cheap as they are today.”
