Which gold stocks? Any suggestions..

What is your expected timeline for this?

Same here, I have been buying since $1300/ounce and think it should go up & up. How much I cannot ascertain but $3K would be a good return.

According to them gold should have been above $2000/ounce since 2018.

I personally think only way is up for Gold but these Kitco news is biased in every window for a very very long time.

I think he means by larger landlord = already made shit-tons of money in the credit boom
