The Bullionaire 707 Followers Follow Summary McEwen is rated BUY with a $31 target, driven by long-term asset growth and copper exposure. MUX's investment thesis centers on production ramping from 115,700 oz in 2025 to up to 300,000 oz by 2030, with minimal dilution. Los Azules copper project represents significant optionality; 46% stake and royalty are not fully priced in at current levels. Key near-term catalysts include Gold Bar reconciliation, Los Azules FID completion, and McEwen Copper IPO, with risks tied to execution and dilution. assistantua/iStock via Getty Images The Quarter That Read Better Than It Was McEwen Inc.

Despite my deep focus on the mining sector, I still approach it with humility. There is always more to learn.My Worldview is simple: Long Gold, Short Fiat. This conviction shapes my portfolio and my life. I am not a proponent of fear selling and do not approach gold investing as a panic trade. I view precious metals as the most real form of money and the producers as genuine value creators. That said, I also believe in diversification with correct position sizing based on personal situation. Investing for me is not about maximizing returns, but about being financially resilient in any macro environment.I hold major producers like Barrick Gold in my portfolio and do not trade them. I am also looking at junior miners where the upside justifies the risk.All my analysis starts with the Reserves Quality, Grade, Mine Life, and AISC to assess the value of the company's assets, followed by risk analysis. Valuation for me is always the anchor. I don't buy stories; I buy numbers.I've joined Seeking Alpha, as I have gained a lot of value from other authors and the platform, and want to contribute back with coverage across the US and Canadian mining industry.
