Guys, you aren’t going to believe this. But we’ve got another merger on our hands to discuss today. I know, it’s day three of talking mergers. But don’t blame us, blame the active capital markets!
In all sincerity, it is a bit refreshing to see transactions occurring because these names have growth on their mind, rather than seeing deals done because it’s a way to reduce expenditures, as is common in down markets. You can look to the uranium sector and a couple transactions announced as of late for that.
But today we’re talking precious metals, and despite the price of gold being in a consolidation period, silver is working to move higher. Which means M&A is coming at us hot and fast, with the latest transaction actually be an all cash deal – if that isn’t a sign of the times, I don’t know what is!
Of course, we’re talking the acquisition of Reyna Silver (TSXV: RSLV) by Torex Gold (TSX: TXG), a transaction that is a bit of an anomaly in this sector.
Lets dive in.
