I just received an email from the broker who handles all of my private placement paperwork. I don’t like paperwork… and luckily he handles the bulk of it.
The email was several pieces of paper that allowed me to exercise warrants from financings I’ve participated in over the past several years.
Financings that friend, business partner, and colleague Nick Hodge and I have offered to subscribers of our premium accredited investor service Private Placement Intel.
Years ago, Nick and I literally bet that gold would see new record highs and that copper would also see new record highs. So we positioned ourselves by vetting quality deals with quality teams and projects that had the potential to make us a fortune in those and other key metals.
One of those companies was my largest personal holding, Hannan Metals (TSX-V: HAN)(OTC: HANNF). We’ve financed it several times. Last year, we bought shares at C$0.25. The financing not only allotted us shares at C$0.25 but also provided an option to buy additional shares for a period of three years for C$0.35.
Those shares are at an all-time high right now near the C$1.30 level. I’m signing a piece of paper that will allow me to buy shares of Hannan that trade near C$1.30 for C$0.35. If I’m right, those shares are going much higher. So I’m signing that piece of paper and sending it in with a check to buy shares that are at C$1.30 for C$0.35.
We also speculated that lithium — though still in correction mode — would do very well in the mid to long-term. We helped finance a company called Q2 Metals Corp. (TSX-V: QTWO)(OTC: QUEXF). That financing came with the opportunity to buy more shares at C$0.60. Shares have traded well over C$1.00 after making a significant discovery at its world-class, 100%-owned Cisco lithium project.
I exercised those warrants recently, and, despite a bottoming lithium price, I’m up triple-digits on both my original shares and the warrants I exercised.
I highlight these deals not to brag but to show you that, whether it’s gold and copper making new record highs or lithium bottoming out before its eventual rise back up, we’ve been able to find deals for ourselves and for our subscriber base on a consistent basis regardless of the market’s gyrations.
These aren’t one offs. Last year, we offered ten deals to subscribers. Seven are public, and all but one are in the green with most up triple-digits. The three going public this year will do so in the green as well. And the one that hasn’t worked out yet just made a transformational deal that, I believe, will put the deal back in the positive column.
I’ll put our track record up against anyone’s… and we’re not anywhere near done. We’re entering what I believe will be one of the most important commodity supercycles we’ve ever seen. Nick and I will continue to leverage the network we’ve developed over nearly two decades to keep finding deals that allow us to profit from this important moment.
It’s going to be a great run in the coming years, and I hope you’ll join us on that journey by becoming a subscriber to Private Placement Intel.
From recommending a broker… to showing you how to fill out the paperwork… we have you covered. The difficult part, of course, is finding deals that work. And Nick and I are hard at work everyday bringing you the best deals out there.
I’m putting the finishing touches on a deal with a top-notch team with gold and copper assets that already has a robust resource and tons of exploration upside.
If that’s something that interests you… be sure to check out our free Private Placement Intel webinar where we unveil our complete track record and show you, one by one, the latest deals that are open now or about to be open to subscribers.
