Northern Star – Buy

Super Pit joint owners Northern Star and Saracen Mineral Holdings are set to combine, having agreed to a merger-of-equals worth $16 billion.

The proposed merger will create a new top 10 global gold major with a world-class portfolio and three large-scale production centres in Kalgoorlie and Yandal in Western Australia, as well as in North America.

Global Gold Miners

BetaShares Global Gold Miners is under Algo Engine buy conditions.

MNRS aims to track the performance of an index, (before fees and expenses), that comprises the largest global gold mining companies (ex-Australia), hedged into Australian dollars.

As Gold rallies from the recent US$1770 level to US$1890, we expect to see renewed buying interest in the related ETFs and the listed gold miners.

ASX200 – Line in the Sand

S&P/ASX is under Algo Engine buy conditions since forming a higher low on 21 September this year.

As PE valuations expand and evidence of earnings growth remains minimal, we see risks increasing for the overall market, both domestic and international equities.

With the above in mind, it’s prudent to tighten the stop loss or market reversal level and the chart below highlights 6630 as support.
