  • De Grey Mining and Artemis Resources have the highest correlation to the daily movements of Novo Resources.
  • De Grey and Artemis seem to trade pretty similar.
  • Novo shows no correlation to GDX, which is a plus from a diversification stand point.
  • Novo even shows some small negative correlation with GLD (Gold).
  • Intrestingly enough, Novo Resources is the only junior that shows an actual negative correlation with Kirkland Lake Gold… (que speculation)

  • No statistic significance for any variable (Although, it’s interesting to see that the Kirkland Lake was closest, and it was negative).
  • Holding Novo Resources seems to give diversification benefits (for a gold stock heavy portfolio).

 

I will hopefully soon be done with my next stock report on my newest top 3 holding, so be on the look out!
