Introduction – Gold Stocks

For this week’s subscriber request video, I will be covering mining stocks to include gold stocks, diversified metals, steel and coal, and consumable fuels. I consider the stocks very cyclical and at the same time unpredictable and therefore unreliable. Consequently, I have spent very little time working to learn about or understand these companies. Nevertheless, since I was asked to cover them, I felt that the perspective that could be obtained from FAST Graphs could provide insight into the truth about gold and mining stocks. The reason I say this is because statistically some of these companies look really good. In other words, their P/E ratios are low, their earnings yields high, and in some cases their dividend yields as well. However, looking at statistics in a vacuum can be misleading. With this video, I hope to add enlightenment to the realities of investing in gold and mining stocks.

The stocks I will be covering in this video are: Yanzhou Coal Mining (YZCAY), Vale (VALE), Rio Tinto (RIO), Polymetal International (POYYF), Kinross Gold Corp (KGC), Barrick Gold Corp (GOLD), B2Gold Corp (BTG), BHP Group (BBL), Newmont Corp (NEM), Royal Gold (RGLD), Eldorado Gold Corp (EGO), Glencore (GLCNF), Franco Nevada Corp (FNV).
