Every investor has a wide array of asset classes and investment vehicles to consider – stocks; bonds; commodities; funds; options; LEAPS; etc. and the relatively unknown and misunderstood category called ‘warrants’. This article discusses the reasons behind the performance to date of commodity related company stocks (i.e. gold, silver and other metal miners and oil and gas operators) and their associated warrants vis-à-vis the aforementioned categories.

I have written a number of times in the last few months that gold and mining shares look attractive. While the metal had a big run-up in price during the three-month stretch that ended in late February, the yellow metal has subsequently dropped back a bit, as have the prices of the leading mining shares. If anything, however, the reasons for gold bullishness have intensified.

Just three months later, the price of gold for December delivery had plummeted to $681 an ounce, a 21-month low and 33.9% drop from its record high.
Most gold bugs were equal parts puzzled and broken-hearted. The world’s stock markets tanked, as did some of its biggest economies. In such an environment, they thought, gold should have risen.

What you make of the gold market right now depends on what you make of the kind of data UBS’s precious metals team follows.
Big institutional players in the New York futures market slashed their bullish betting on gold in the week of June 10. Data from the CFTC — the U.S. regulator — shows a net reduction of 11 percent in the long gold positions held by what it calls “large speculators.â€
And this “reduction in the gross longs maybe a further sign that gold is losing its attraction,†reckon analysts at the Swiss banking and wealth management giant.
But less pressure…
