Strong Assets Boost Sprott Resource (SCP)

"Despite more than doubling since we first recommended it just shy of two years ago, Sprott Resources (SCP), a Toronto-listed resource company, remains a strong buy, selling at a discount to a reasonable asset value," says Adrian Day.

The money manager and editor of The Global Analyst explains, "Sprott makes direct and indirect investments in the resource sector, frequently with new businesses which it subsequently takes public after nurturing them.

"One such is Orion Oil & Gas, of which Sprott still owns 78%, and remains undervalued. After more possible acquisitions, Orion could increase in value and more shares be spun off.

Goldcorp (GG): A Core Gold Holding

Goldcorp (GG) logo"China, India, and Russia have been overt in their desire to accumulate significant quantities of gold as an alternate currency reserve," says resource specialist Curtis Hesler.

The editor of The Professional Timing Service explains, "I do believe we are seeing this process in effect, and it is acting to put a floor on the downside price of bullion.

"From a purely technical point of view, we should see gold decline back to at least the June highs of $1,260. An outside target would be $1,150, but I don't think our foreign friends will wait that long to jump in and counter sellers.

Aluminum Corp. of China (ACH): 'Big Time Profits'

Pro Timer's Energy Trio (KMP, LGCY, NOG)
