Technical and Quantitative Research

Vermilion Research

Vermilion’s objective is to deliver timely, actionable, and unique technical research to professional investors through the application of our various technical indicators.

Our research strategists seek to highlight securities which we believe are at major inflection points, based on our various technical and quantitative indicators, and offer asymmetric risk/return profiles. Our unique research methodology, centered on relative strength, enables our strategists to deliver superior investment recommendations.

Our process begins by organizing the universe of actively traded stocks into discrete sectors, then into industry groups. We then apply our technical and quantitative tools to identify developing price trends. Once attractive trends are identified within a selected sector or group, we screen for individual stocks which we believe offer the best risk/reward profile. We provide a historical perspective that often reveals, through our long-term charts, how price patterns often repeat themselves over time.

Technical Analysis

Our outlook remains bullish and we continue to believe that the path of least resistance remains higher for global equities (MSCI ACWI). As long as the MSCI ACWI (ACWI-US), ACWI ex-US (ACWX-US), EM (EEM-US), and EAFE (EFA-US) are above their respective intermediate-term support levels we believe a positive outlook is warranted. Support levels to watch include $75 on ACWI-US, $44 on ACWX-US, $41 on EEM-US, and $60 on EFA-US. We recap significant technical levels across major markets and highlight specific opportunities within the Technology and Materials Sectors.

Equity Bottom-Up

Wheaton Precious Metals / Equity Bottom-Up

After an exceptional Q419, WPM’s operational performance moderated in Q120, but was nevertheless robust within the broader macro-environment with underlying net earnings during the quarter within 2.6% of our prior forecasts. They would have exceeded our forecasts (by 6.0%) had it not been for a rare (albeit non-cash) tax charge relating to a reversal of deferred income tax assets. In the wake of Q120 results, we have reduced our precious metals price expectations for the balance of FY20 fractionally and our production expectations by 5koz AuE (ie <1%). However, these changes are more than balanced by a lower anticipated interest charge for the remainder of the year, such that our adjusted EPS forecast for FY20 has increased by 1.9c, from 84c to 85.9c. Note that, on its current trajectory, there is a real possibility that WPM could become net debt free in a year’s time, which could presage a change in its dividend policy.

Ahead of Wheaton's Q120 results, which are scheduled to be released on Wednesday 6 May, after the bell, we have refined our forecasts. They now take account of four factors: 1) the anticipated outlook for gold production from Salobo during the period 2020-25, as disclosed in Wheaton's release of a technical report on 30 March, 2) the timing of mine closures as a result of anti-coronavirus measures, in particular, in Peru and Mexico, 3) updated precious metals forecasts and 4) the possible effects of the recent rise in Wheaton's share price on general and administrative expenses.
