Bullish Setup for Junior Gold Miners: Accumulate on Pullbacks explains Pro Investor David Erfle

About this episode

David Erfle discusses the bullish setup for junior gold miners and his investment strategies following a market correction.

Pro investor David Erfle provides commentary about gold, silver, and junior miners after a sharp correction. Erfle says the current “boring” 2–3-month consolidation is bullish base-building after roughly 200% moves in GDX/GDXJ, noting relative strength in the TSX Venture and miners versus silver, and COMEX open interest at 20-year lows as gold rises without heavy speculator leverage. He highlights strong central-bank physical buying and dollar diversification (including China’s continued purchases). Erfle discusses his approach of accumulating and trimming positions, his 23-stock junior portfolio and watchlist, a preference for earlier-stage sub-$150M market-cap names, due-diligence red flags for late-stage developers, and why Newmont’s strong earnings and free cash flow are positive for the sector, while also addressing insider selling and subscriber concerns. 00:00 Intro 00:26 Gold Silver Pullback 00:59 Bullish Consolidation Signs 03:33 Comex & Central Banks 06:26 Accumulate Juniors 08:15 Trim Profits Strategy 10:36 Developer Due Diligence 11:31 Early-Stage Focus 13:00 Newmont Earnings Impact 16:42 Insider Selling Signals 18:04 Subscriber Questions 22:09 Disciplined Seling…
