Sandstorm Metals & Energy Ltd STTYF

jury still out for me

I bought ssl and snd at the exact same time. SSL has been stellar, SND is actually below where I purchased (.36) a couple of years ago.  I still have SND but will wait before I consider buying anymore.  The recent uptake seems to be more related to the climb with SSL rather than what I see with SND.  For that reason I am still on the fence.

I think we will look back at the 0.34$/share days later on as insanity.  Nolat is batting 1000 with SLW and Sandstorm Gold.  Willl he fail long term with Energy and Metals?  I would have to bet against it.  It might just take 6-18 months to start to move and get REALLY good streams and generate cash flow.  This is my prdediction for Energy and Metals:    Then by

CEO is 100% key for my investing as well. I'm not fully sold on the SND machine though, but honestly want to be as Nolan does EVERYTHING right. You can't doubt this guy and his abilities that's for sure

What parts of the "SND machine" aren't you sold on?  Lets foster some critical discussion, not just mindless pumping like on other boards.

I find it hard to argue with Sesame Street but I am not sold on the Novadex deal. We are upping the ante on the risk when we turn our streaming deal into an equity position and then adding another $5 million to the position. Nolan has done some stellar work on SSL but we have made some bad loans in SND. I am not saying the Novadex deal is a bad one, but we definitely upped the risk on it. Bob

Because I haven't done much investigation. That's all. I was in SSL before the consolodation and never really gave the SND aspect it didn't look to be doing much. My fault for not looking into it further. No pumping, no bashing. Just admitting that I haven't done my homework and until I do so I may sit on the sidelines. Although my gut feeling tells me not to. Especially after

Bob,  It was either up the risk, or have a outright default like Royal Coal.  Blackpaw has a great amount of met coal that will prove to be a hige moneymaker for us.   I can't see Nolan making anymore coal deals.  From here I see oil (not the recovery stuff like Terrex is doing), but rather drilled producing wells, natural gas, silver, copper, more palladium, nickel, maybe

To Doomz78 My portfolio has some similarity to yours but I have a little more diversification : I have 22% SLW (silver royalties) , 22% PSLV (Sprott Silver Bullion), 22% (SSL and FNV) Gold Royalities, (11% SND) Metal Royalties. Balance : other stocks along with a large position in ORT - Orbite Aluminae.

No argument there metalschic. I just hope SND had real sharp pencils when they costed out their risks. Coal prices are in the dumpers right now and I see no rise in price till after nat gas gets back into balance. Bob
