Why Gold Producers Are Still Undervalued: Greg Orrell on This Cycle’s Missing Retail Money

Gold decoupled from real yields after 2022 Russia sanctions triggered central bank reserve diversification — a structural shift Orrell expects to persist. Producers still trade below historical NAV multiples because investors haven't priced in $4,500-$5,500 gold; Orrell expects multiples to expand as skepticism fades. OCM Gold Fund holds ~20-23% senior producers, 10-13% exploration/development, ~5% royalties, 5-7% silver — trims losers and lets winners compound. Agnico Eagle leads capital allocation discipline; B2Gold holds junior stakes like Snowline Gold but hasn't executed buyouts, a stark contrast to past reckless exploration. With cash below 1% while retail liquidates, Orrell sees further upside — counter-cyclical positioning in a cycle still missing wider participation.
