AGORACOM Chief Commentator and my great friend, Peter Grandich, was once again a guest on BNN Friday. Â This time he was on “Market Call” with Howard Green at 1PM EST. Â There is a reason why Peter is a frequent guest on BNN (and almost every major financial media) – he is eerily uncannily right about the markets. Â More importantly, he always provides a firm opinion and never hedges his best by playing the “ying-yang” game that so many commentators like to do.
You can view the 1st half of his appearance by clicking on the image above. Â In the clip, he discusses the following:
- US markets face a “mini melt-up” from fund managers chasing the markets
- 10,500 on the Dow is very possible and would use it as another opportunity to short the market
- Most bullish on gold than at any time in the past 25 years
- Chinese openly telling citizens to buy gold, not US Treasuries
- Germany’s Bundesbank will refrain from big gold sales in the first year of a new central bank gold sales agreement
- Gold has performed equally well during periods of deflation. Â Inflation connection is a misnomer
- Responded to question regarding Timmins Gold (Grandich Posts) (AGORACOM HUB)
- Responded to question regarding Crescent Resources (Grandich Posts) (AGORACOM HUB)
- Responded to question regarding Formation Capital  (Grandich Posts) (AGORACOM HUB)
- Responded to question regarding Eastmain Resources  (Grandich Posts) (AGORACOM HUB)
- Responded to question regarding “sleeper metal of 2010”
- Discussing (lack of) effectiveness of Obama Administration
- Responded to question regarding vale of diamonds
Peter then went on to discuss his top picks, which BNN posted as a separate clip that you can view here. Â He discussed:
- ATW Â (Grandich Posts) (AGORACOM HUB)
- Natural Gas
- Pro Shares Ultra Short Treasuries ETF
- Evolving Gold (Grandich Posts) (AGORACOM HUB)
- Continental Minerals  (Grandich Posts) (AGORACOM HUB)
BNN went over some of Peter’s past picks, which are up over 80% on average. Â In fairness, Northern Dynasty made up the majority of that number but all 3 of his picks were solidly up … try finding that kind of performance from other commentators and money managers.
