    By Vladimir Zernov - June 3, 2013 | Tickers: CDE, HL, PAAS

    Precious metals have been under pressure this year. Silver has led the way, down 25%. The pressure on miners has been even more severe. For some companies, this environment is very tough. For others, like Hecla Mining (NYSE: HL), it’s time to go shopping.

  • Try This Silver Miner for Its Solid Balance Sheet

    By Vladimir Zernov - June 3, 2013 | Tickers: CDE, HL, PAAS

    Silver prices have been in a free fall since the beginning of February. Shares of silver miners have been falling at an even faster rate. Silver is not an asset that can fall forever because the world needs silver for various reasons. Silver is widely used in technology, jewelry, tableware and for the production of coins and medals.

  • As Gold Prices Fall, Should Investors Panic?

    By Peter Epstein - April 12, 2013 | Tickers: ANV, AU, CDE, CORVF

    Gold prices are down 8% year to date. That may look horrible when compared to the S&P500 Index, which is up about 12%. But these are entirely seperate asset classes, and there's room for both in one's portfolio. Let's figure out what an 8% sell-off truly means for junior gold companies.

    By Michael Ugulini - March 11, 2013 | Tickers: CDE, AG, SSRI

    "Too many people miss the silver lining because they're expecting gold."

                                                                              -Maurice Setter

    Silver often plays a secondary role to its more illuminating sibling – gold – in the precious metals family. However, the potential for returns for investors exists with companies aggressively advancing their silver programs in diverse regions of the globe. The following are some silver expectations to examine from three enterprises operating in this industry:

  • Basic Materials Stocks to Consider Buying

    By David Gould - December 6, 2012 | Tickers: CDE, HL, SLW

    Since it's often hard to predict basic material prices, investors should look carefully at corporate volume and overall industry supply levels. In my view, the best miners are those that are focused on accretive takeover activity while targeting high-grade regions with conservative spending and research-minded exploration. Below, I review three stocks with this perspective in mind.

  • Silver Wheaton: Significant Upside Possible By 2014

    By Maxwell Fisher - November 19, 2012 | Tickers: ABX, CDE, SLW

    Silver Wheaton (NYSE: SLW) is a silver royalty streaming company that generates its revenues by purchasing future metal production from miners for a fixed price in return for financing cash payments. The miners are typically gold and copper companies that produce silver as a by-product, and are therefore willing to sell future production of the metal so that they may obtain financing. Gold and copper miners usually get the press more »

  • 1 Miner to Buy, 2 to Avoid

    By David Gould - November 9, 2012 | Tickers: CDE, HL, SLW

    As investors look towards basic materials for outperformance, they need to be mindful of those that have outperformed despite weak volume trends. Instead, the most attractive basic material plays are those that have generated improving free cash flow and are exploring high-growth projects. With several of the larger producers working on supply "hiccups" and fixing up facilities, the momentum will be in favor of the smaller producers that are willing more »

  • Big Upside in This Silver Mine

    By Piyush Arora - October 30, 2012 | Tickers: CDE, AG, FSM, SLW, SVM

    Many investors prefer to not invest directly in silver because the commodity’s volatility is too high. It is due to this reason that investors are more willing to invest in silver mining companies like First Majestic Silver Corp (NYSE: AG). Unlike silver streaming companies, the silver mining business model is not highly leveraged. Even if silver prices consolidate at inflated levels, the company would make profits.

    Over the past few months, gold & silver have seen tremendous leaps in value. While this has pushed many stocks near their 52-week highs, there is still more room for them to appreciate thanks to greater volume. Interestingly, the bull rise has actually overshadowed some of the growth stories behind emerging players.

  • Ask Boris: Hey Boris, Should I Buy Gold?

    "So hey Boris -- should I buy gold?" 

    Yes.  You should buy gold.  But not to make money.  To keep money.

    "But Boris -- I want to make money.  That is why I invest -- to make money."

    By Piyush Arora - September 7, 2012 | Tickers: CDE, AG, SLV, SLW

    Whenever investors see a problem in Europe, they rush to precious metals like Gold and Silver. The prices of both the commodities are sentiment driven and have risen significantly over the past two years, but in the current year, we haven’t seen any fireworks. The reason could be because 2012 has been a less dramatic year, which has kept the prices in range, and commodity investors would not be more »

    By Karen Rogers - June 25, 2012 | Tickers: CDE, PAAS, SVM

    There are two different types of silver mining companies:  those that produce and those that explore.  Production companies produce silver and have cash flow while exploration companies are still trying to find silver and have no cash flow.  Prudent investors looking for value and safety will select those production mining companies that have a proven financial track record.
