One Ticket For A Handful of Advantages in the New Commodity Bull Market

After 1,200 trading days, or 5 years, commodities are booming again and are in a new bull market now for 5 months. Since mid-January, silver gained up to 32%, gold 22%, platinum 35%, palladium 33%, zinc 35%, copper 18%, lead 17%, nickel 16% and aluminum 15%. WTIC oil rallied up to 81% since mid-February, while natural gas appreciated by up to 43% since March. Although lithium is on the rise since a few years already, we are experiencing parabolic prices since the end of last year. A popular method to profit from appreciating commodity prices is by investing in mining stocks. A rule of thumb says that when the gold price increases by 1%, the best gold stocks increase by more than 3%. In reality, the HUI gold mining index gained up to 138% since mid-January, hence 6 times as much as the gold price (the early phases of a bull market typically create strongest gains). The time seems ripe, especially for one company as it offers unmatched exposure to both exploration/discovery upside as well as increasing commodity prices.

he HUI index only includes the big seniors, respectively already producing gold mines. However

In bull markets, stocks from exploration companies (juniors) typically appreciate much stronger than senior mining stocks because much more risks are involved. For such reasons, it is recommended to pick dozens of juniors in order to mini-mize risks via diversification.

In bull markets, so-called prospect/project generators gain popularity for a good reason, as they function and are appreciated like investment funds due to investing in dozens of exploration projects/companies globally, yet with a sound focus on “safe” mining jurisdic-tions.

One of the better known prospect gen-erators is Vancouver-based Zimtu Cap-ital Corp., which is listed on the Venture Exchange in Canada (TSX.V: ZC) and in Germany (ZCT1), in which I invested my own money and have been work-ing for a number of years now, getting paid monthly. Besides its people, Zimtu’s assets include an ever growing portfolio of equity stakes. Currently, this invest-ment issuer holds interests in +40 public-ly listed and +15 privately held compan-ies (mostly focused on mineral resource exploration; whereas some private com-panies may become public in future, as happened in the past, adding constantly new equity holdings into its portfolio).

Somewhat unique with Zimtu is that they also prospect, stake and acquire properties and projects regularly with their in-house geologists and/or stak-ing partners. On top of that, Zimtu also creates and builds new companies from scratch on, i.e. participating at the low-est possible price levels.

All of these core businesses ensure that Zimtu’s portfolio is growing strongly, es-pecially in bull markets, adding assets (equity) regularly. Alone in the last couple of months, Zimtu added 4 lith-ium companies into its portfolio, besides numerous other highly prospective jun-iors in which Zimtu feels is the right time to invest. And they did not stop that model during the last 5 years of a bear market but recognized the opportun-

ities and made some spectacu-lar deals and acquisitions, as Rockstone opines just in time and ready for the next bull market. In other words, watch out for Zimtu over the next weeks and months as they have some quite hot irons in the oven, as we Germans like to say. Strike while the iron’s hot. With less than 16 million shares issued and outstand-ing, Zimtu Capital is a relatively tightly held company, in which management and insiders con-trol significant stakes.

On June 14, Zimtu will host its own, inaugural show in down-town Vancouver, the Vancou-ver Commodity Forum, with key note speakers including Joe Martin, Chris Berry, John Kaiser and Stephan Bogner. The CEOs of Zimtu’s top hold-ings will be exhibiting and presenting during the show as well, providing the perfect location and maybe the best time of the year to network with highly interesting people and learn about the upcoming success stories that this junior prospect generator is believed to have up its sleeve.
