    Shares of the gold mining investment company are flat over the past year. Precious metals prices have picked up in recent months, with gold setting a new dollar high recently.

    ASA’s revenues have surged 110 percent in the past year, but the company isn’t yet profitable.
    Action to take: Gold prices are expected to trend higher, which should be bullish for miners and ASA’s investments in them. That could lead to better share price appreciation in the coming year.

  • Special: The Crypto that Could Replace Visa?
  • ASA shares currently pay a modest 0.1 percent dividend.

    For traders, the May $15 calls are an at-the-money trade. Last going for about $1.40, they could see mid-double-digit returns or better should gold prices continue higher this year. Returns may fare even better on a price spike, which would send miners soaring.
