Having bought in here a week ago I am unworried about the drop in the share price.
Fundamentally the company is sound. Yes, there is a debt, but this is not massive and is getting paid off. Currency rates will effect this for sure but for me, buying gold stocks is a longer term strategy where I am happy if the sp drops as it allows me to accumulate more.
So much is going on in the world that no one knows what the markets will really do and more importantly 'when'. All you can do is educated guessing. Will covid come to an end this year? Will equity stocks keep on rallying or will they crash or will we see just a correction? How about the interest rates? Will these rise or will the FED keep them low for years to come, bearing in mind America owes approximately $30 trillion and rising interest would cripple them.
So my strategy has been to slowing exit equity stocks and add into mineral stocks with the intention of just holding until minerals have their day again, whether that is tomorrow or 5 years down the line.
PAF has a PE of 7.8
PEG of 0.5
ROE average over last 5 years of about 19
ROA has been steadily growing as has the ROCE.
Cash of approx. $30m and debt of approx. $50m
EPS is forecast to grow with Net profits forecast to grow to £99.86m in 2022.
So, my alert for the sp to fall to for my next buy is 14.6p. This price imo is a very strong support level and as much as I like to see the share price rise, I do want the sp to fall first so that in the longer term I make more money. But who really knows what the sp will do? All we know is PAF is a quality small cap miner.
