Contrary to Shark Tank star Kevin O'Leary, Frank Holmes, CEO of U.S. Global Investors, sees gold mining stocks outperforming the physical bullion.
"Our smart Beta GOAU [exchange-traded fund] is really a classic of showing you you have to get rid of those companies that are not creating value per share," Holmes said. "The royalty companies have done well and those stocks that basically show better revenue per share, reserves per share, production per share, they far outperform."
On gold prices, Holmes said that there are several fundamental factors behind the recent rally in the yellow metal and has little to do with President Donald Trump's tweets on Wednesday about the possible military strikes in Syria.The CEO of U.S. Global Investors maintains his long-term $1,500 an ounce gold call.
