Huge Copper Breakout, New All-Time Highs Coming Soon
Yesterday afternoon, NIA stressed that the copper/gold ratio is the #1 most important chart in the market today… and you are seeing why this morning with copper up by 1.10% to $6.2664 per lb despite continued weakness in gold. Without copper, there can't be any electricity for AI data centers, and even if gold dips to $3,800 per oz the long-term average copper/gold ratio means copper is likely to break $10 per lb in 2026.
The highest quality small-cap copper exploration stocks are similar to gold exploration stocks at their 2023/2024 lows prior to them rising by 500%-1,000%.
NIA's President recently invested into the Ameriwest Critical Metals (CSE: AWCM) $0.25 per share private placement. This morning, AWCM announced that it has listed on the OTCQB (click here to read) under the symbol AWLIF. Ameriwest's Bornite project in Oregon was previously owned by Kinross Gold (KGC) and was close to being developed by Kinross in the 1990s. NIA's President believes it has a higher chance of future development than most copper stocks trading at market caps 10-30x higher than AWCM.
Billionaire-backed Apeiron Investment Group recently added more Super Copper (CSE: CUPR) shares in their $0.75 per share LIFE offering. CUPR's maiden drill program will begin imminently!
GSP Resource (TSXV: GSPR) is the lowest market cap stock with an NI 43-101 compliant copper resource. GSPR's market cap is only US$4.34 million, and they are directly adjacent to Canada's #1 largest producing copper mine Highland Valley with GSPR's drilling to begin shortly!
All three of these copper companies are worthy of becoming NIA's next #2 favorite overall stock suggestion. NIA's #1 favorite overall stock suggestion Saga Metals (TSXV: SAGA) announced one of their highest-grade titanium intercepts to date this morning: click here to read!
AWCM is the closest thing to another Gladiator Metals (TSXV: GLAD), which was our #1 favorite copper stock suggestion and #3 favorite overall stock suggestion that we announced in 2023 at an initial suggestion price of $0.50 per share (click here to see). GLAD has been one of the largest gaining copper stocks of 2026, recently hitting a new all-time high of $2.76 per share for a gain of 452% since NIA's suggestion. NIA was the first to publicly introduce GLAD to the world in 2023, similar to how NIA is currently the first to publicly introduce AWCM to the world in 2026. GLAD started out in 2023 by assaying its historical drill core, and AWCM is doing the same right now with the assays likely to be back from the lab any day now, which will give everybody a good idea of why we love AWCM's Bornite Copper Project in Oregon and why Kinross wanted to develop it!
CUPR is the closest thing to another San Lorenzo Gold (TSXV: SLG), the #1 largest gaining natural resource stock of the last twelve months.
GSPR is the closest thing to another Gold Bull Resources, which was our #2 favorite overall stock suggestion that we announced in 2023, and it got acquired by Borealis Mining (TSXV: BOGO) at a huge premium.
SAGA is the closest thing to another NevGold (TSXV: NAU), with both companies having management teams that are executing perfectly and creating tremendous shareholder value underneath the surface.
Manchester United (MANU) is continuing to breakout this morning like NIA predicted last month.
Celtic plc (LSE: CCP), or CLTFF on the U.S. OTC, will become the #1 largest gaining professional sports stock of 2026. The World Cup is about to begin and all of America will be eager to invest into professional football (soccer) stocks in the weeks ahead. The United Kingdom is the football capital of the world; it's basically the only thing they do better than the United States. MANU and CCP/CLTFF are the only two publicly traded British football clubs, but Celtic is fundamentally a much stronger company while trading at dramatically lower multiples, giving Celtic significantly greater upside than MANU.
