(NYSE:HCI) Receives Consensus Rating of "Moderate Buy" from AnalystsDecember 23 at 3:15 AM | americanbankingnews.comHCI Group's (HCI) Buy Rating Reaffirmed at Truist FinancialDecember 18, 2024 | americanbankingnews.comWhy I'm telling friends to avoid gold stocksBack in November, gold made a tiny move of 1.6%. But according to my backtesting by using a special type of gold trade, I would have seen a 141% gain in just a week. It happened again in March. Gold nudged up 1.2%. This time? A 104% overnight gain. And in June? A 1% gold move turned into a 74% gain in two weeks. Granted, there would have been smaller wins and those that did not work out, but you see, there's a reason I'm telling all my friends to hold off from buying gold or regular gold stocks right now. There's a more lucrative way to play the gold market as we enter a new breakout period. It's all about catching what I call "Acceleration Cycles."December 23, 2024 | DTI (Ad)Expert Outlook: HCI Group Through The Eyes Of 7 AnalystsDecember 17, 2024 | benzinga.comTampa insurer to launch another carrierNovember 22, 2024 | bizjournals.comHCI Equity Partners-backed Driven Distribution Group Appoints Matt Johnson as CEONovember 19, 2024 | sg.finance.yahoo.comHCI Group Q3: Strong Operational Performance Even In A Tough Hurricane SeasonNovember 14, 2024 | seekingalpha.comHCI Group, Inc.
