I had the chance this week to connect with legendary junior resource financier and investor, Rick Rule, Chairman of Sprott US Holdings, part of the overall Sprott Asset Management group of companies.
It was a fascinating interview, as Rick discussed exactly what he’s doing right now in the resource sector, and why so much money is made as a consequence of “selective and aggressive buying during these market bottoms.”
Speaking toward fund “disintermediation” of mining and natural resource shares, Rick stated that, “What’s happening now…[is] the small hedge funds and mutual funds…are experiencing redemptions. When you are experiencing redemptions as a manager, you don’t sell what you want to sell…you sell anything that has a bid, [as] you have to raise cash to fund your investor redemptions…One of the weaknesses of the mutual fund model in a cyclical industry like precious metals or natural resources, is that although the industry itself requires a contrarian technique, you’re at the mercy of the mob, and you’re at the mercy of the market. We’re seeing this in the capitulation selling that we’ve been [watching] this week.”
