TRADE RATIONALE       

Pretium is one of our favorite small gold miners. The stock sold off sharply in late January due to announcement of fourth-quarter production figures deemed to be disappointing. The company is about eight months into production at its Brucejack mine, and the ramp-up is slower than analysts had expected.

We think the recent price decline presents a buying opportunity. Miners very often experience small obstacles in the early life of their mines. Even if the ramp-up isn’t going perfectly, the outlook for the mine, or the company, does not change. We expect the share price to rebound.

NOTE: This stock is optionable
