            Fat Prophets goes bullish Gold at US$260 an ounce

            Fresh out of the bursting of the dotcom bubble, one of Fat Prophets’ early calls was to buy gold at around US$262 an ounce. This was on the basis that the ensuing monetary easing by the Fed would erode the intrinsic value of the US$. Such was to prove correct, with the precious metals sector surging, as gold surged in the ensuing years to reach a peak of almost $1900 in 2011.

            Year 2003

            Fat Prophets goes bullish Oil at US$35 a barrel

            Fresh out of the bursting of the dotcom bubble, one of Fat Prophets’ early calls was to buy gold at around US$262 an ounce. This was on the basis that the ensuing monetary easing by the Fed would erode the intrinsic value of the US$. Such was to prove correct, with the precious metals sector surging, as gold surged in the ensuing years to reach a peak of almost $1900 in 2011.

            Year 2008

            Fat Prophets says to avoid financials, just prior to the GFC

            While not predicting the full extent of the Global Financial crisis, Fat Prophets’ was very vocal that the level of housing market write-offs was set to accelerate for the US banking sector. We said that the banking sector globally should be avoided and was a ‘no-go.’ The sub-prime disaster was of course what ultimately brought down a number of banks, and also ushered in the GFC.

            Year 2014

            Fat Prophets calls an inflection point for the airline sector, and put a buy on Qantas at $1.31

            Going back to 2014, and Qantas was the stock that the market loved to ‘hate’ with intense price competition, rising costs, and overcapacity. Fat Prophets however believed that a number of tailwinds were emerging with an ending of the domestic price war, and with a credible turnaround program under CEO Alan Joyce. After the airline turned a billion-dollar loss into a billion-dollar profit, the market started to agree. Brokers have subsequently started putting buys on QAN around the $6 mark. Fat Prophets has taken the exit for a gain of over 300%.

            Year 2015

            Fat Prophets predicts a Trump election victory

            Not many were giving Donald Trump much of a chance of securing the Republican nomination let alone the US Presidency. Fat Prophets believed that a backlash against the establishment would see Donald Trump go onto be the 45th President of the United States. We all know what happened next.

            Year 2015

            Fat Prophets calls the bottom of the iron ore market

            In late 2014, early 2015, the majority of the investment community were bearish on iron ore, with a wide expectation that China was about to implode, and iron ore was going to US$20. Fat Prophets’ was on the contrarian side, calling a bottom around US$60, on the basis of a still strong Chinese economy, supported by stimulus, urbanisation, and with supply constraints emerging. Iron prices ultimately bottomed around US$50 and went onto surge past the US$120 mark.

            Year 2018

            Fat Prophets calls a bottom in oil around US$50 a barrel

            With the trade war raging on and concerns over a global recession, oil prices plummeted in the fourth quarter of 2018. Fat Prophets took the view that OPEC would act to stabilise pricing by agreeing an output cut. Such was to prove the case, and with the cartel extending, and complying, with supply curbs well into 2019.

            Year 2018

            Fat Prophets calls a turnaround in sentiment after a traumatic sell-off in Q4 2018

            The fourth quarter of 2018 saw a traumatic sell-off, the likes of which had not been seen before, even in the GFC. An ongoing trade war and the prospect of Fed rate rises, had the markets fearing the worst. Fat Prophets took the opposing view and believed that investors would recalibrate their pessimistic expectations as 2019 got underway. The S&P500 did indeed stage a powerful rally in the first half of the year.

            Year 2019

            Fat Prophets calls a period of outperformance for Asian markets

            With the trade war weighing on sentiment, the Chinese stock market had a tough time in 2018. Fat Prophets however believed that both sides (the US/China) were motivated to ‘do a deal’ and saw the selling in China as excessive, given the market (CSI300 above) was trading on a PE of around 7 times. With China appearing to seize the upper hand in negotiations, the Chinese stock market has since gone onto perform strongly.

            Global Mining

            Product Description

            Fat Prophets has been providing dedicated coverage of the resource sector since the launch of the Mining & Resources Report in 2005. Since that time, the resource space has continued to develop into a global behemoth with an increasing number of companies operating mines and developing projects across the globe.

            With the large number of global resource companies available to investors, our Global Mining Report is designed to sort the “wheat from the chaff”.  With our extensive resource expertise, Fat Prophets has made it our absolute mission to seek out the best exposure to base metals, precious metals and energy companies from the global pool of resource companies.

            Our Global Mining Report has a firm capital growth focus and utilises our on the ground knowledge of resource companies globally to present opportunities across both the majors and minnows of the resource markets.

            To generate superior returns, one must understand the inherent volatility in the global resources sector; an understanding that Fat Prophets has an expertise in. We would encourage you to take a look at our Global Mining Report.

            Product Description

            The report was launched back in 2000 in the middle of what was at the time one of the most savage bear markets ever witnessed. The report has gone on to comfortably outperform the broader market over the past 19 years.

            As contrarian investors, we examine company fundamentals to find those rare opportunities so often overlooked by other investors. We then use technical analysis to sharpen our timing.

            Whilst you will receive recommendations across the industrial sector and also select financial stocks, key macro themes driving our stock selections include bullish views on both gold and energy stocks.

            We explain our thinking regularly in Market Comment pieces and demonstrate how exposure to our favoured sectors can add longer term stability and growth to your portfolio.

            Privacy Policy

            1.1 Privacy

            Fat Prophets respects your privacy. We will not sell or share any of your personal information, unless you have consented that we do so.

            Entries within the Fat Prophets data base (“the Data Base”) will be directly marketed to as a means to generate sales, and gather useful market information. This will involve an active marketing campaign with special offers made to the data base.

            There are four kinds of entries within the Database (“Entry Status”):

            • Prospect

            • Registrant

            • Subscriber

            • Former Subscriber

            Recently changes were made to the type of information collected from incoming Prospects to the website, and responders to various online banner advertising initiatives.

            We now capture the following detail:

            • First name

            • Last name

            • Email address

            • Telephone number

            • We previously only gathered an email address.

            • The following is how we intend to market to the data base.

            • Periodic Investor Updates via email

            • Periodic emails updating prospects on new products and services offered by Fat Prophets Australasia, Mining & Futures; managed funds; education; seminars etc.

            • We will send a survey to the data base trying to find out what the Prospects are looking for as it pertains to financial products, lifestyle, and other service.

            Our sales/telemarketing team will make direct sales telephone calls with the objective of achieving sales. The different objectives are:

            • Calling existing Fat Prophets Members to secure re-subscriptions

            • Calling leads generated from the website (Free Services) and banner advertising to sell Fat Prophets products

            • Calling past subscribers with the objective of re selling Memberships.

            By submitting your name and contact details to this site you agree to aforementioned marketing and sales initiatives.

             

            1.2 Security and Quality of Personal Financial Information

            At Fat Prophets we consider the security of your information to be of paramount importance. We have implemented security measures designed to provide the peace of mind you should expect when purchasing goods over the internet.

            In order to properly process subscriptions, Fat Prophets collect email address, full name, billing address and credit card information. We have taken security measures, consistent with international information practices, to protect your personal information. These measures include technical and procedural steps to protect your data from misuse, unauthorised access or disclosure, loss, alteration, or destruction.

            Credit card information is transmitted using secure socket layer (SSL) encryption. Fat Prophets does not store credit card information collected during the subscription process. We automatically delete credit card details upon the completion of an order, and therefore retain credit card details for the shortest possible time. If you’re uncomfortable using your credit card online, we also accept payment by money order, cheque, and direct deposit.
