Winstons Growth Stock Report Your Source for High Potential Stocks Issue 14 April 8, 2011 The big news this week is that gold is reaching new record high prices as it moves ever closer to a new psychological benchmark of $1500. The main driver is the worsening U.S. debt which weve been hammering home for over 10 years now plus in more recent years the growing problems in the European Union. I have read some interesting articles this week from diehard gold gurus who are making pains to tell their followers, no this is not a bubble in the price of gold. I couldnt agree more. Some sure fire indicators that we are nowhere near seeing a top for gold are that we havent seen huge spikes in the price of gold, the mainstream media seems oblivious to golds stellar movement over the last ten years, and the vast majority of investors still arent investing in gold assets of any kind. This last point is interesting. Though weve been making excellent returns in the gold sector with our venture stocks, most investors dont even have shares in blue chips like Barrick Gold. In our world where we are consumed with resource deals, you would think the average investor would at least be buying conservative gold assets. One of the worlds leading gold analysts is Eric Sprott who in a recent report cited that the amount of new investment into gold since 2000 is about $250 billion. That seems significant however the amount of new capital flowing into all other asset classes came to about $98 trillion. Data from the CPM Gold Yearbook (2011) really drives home the point of how gold is largely overlooked by general investment community. In 1968 gold represented 5% of all financial assets. By 1980 the percentage fell below 3%. Since 1990 the ownership percentage for gold fell below 1% and has stayed there ever since. Gold has a very long way to go. And this is good news for our venture stocks as they near production in a bull market. Hathor Exploration (HAT, TSX) Now on the Big Board On Tuesday HAT moved from the Venture exchange to the big board in Toronto. This means those institutional buyers who wanted to buy HAT but couldnt because of their venture status, can now do so. Also of significance, Hathor announced that it has received three Mineral Leases from the Saskatchewan government covering its Roughrider uranium claims. This is important because you cannot enter into commercial production in Saskatchewan without a Mineral Lease. The last Mineral Lease issued by the government for mines in the Athabasca Basin was in 1985. Hathor is just another step closer to what I believe will be a commercial operation. It seems like our timing adding to our position during the recent selloff was near perfect. Wildcat Silver Corp. (WS, TSXV) Strong Buying Shares of Wildcat have performed surprisingly well this year as cashed up Ventana shareholders seem to be flooding in hoping for more of the same magic from the respective management group. It doesnt hurt that the drill results are positive either. A few days ago some very good results were reported featuring one drill hole with 37 meters of 407 grams per tonne of silver, 14.6% manganese, 2.01% zinc and 2.3% lead. Step out drilling is continuing to show continuous mineralization in all directions. We are holding free shares.
