Most miners are stock prices are down big . That means it is time to buy . Remember the old rule , buy low , sell high
I would suggest this may be the time to buy , IF:
The stock you are buying is a growing concern , real assets in production:
If it is way undervalued with money in the bank ;
If it is down from a dollar to a dime .
Lets answer the last question first , there is probably a reason your dollar became a dime . Bad management is probably the reason . AUN is a great example . Hope and dreams , . The stock is at .02 and about to go to ZERO ;
Toward the middle , GSVR , only down 50% or so YTD . If you are a gambler , why not put down a small bet ? :
If you really want to invest in mining stocks , why not pick the best ;
The best are producers with deep pockets . My Fav. is $IVN , but RIO , BHP and VALE . The big boys also pay dividends . Noice .
You must ask yourself ; Am I happy with solid returns or do I want to swing for the fences . ?
I will take singles and doubles rather than striking out . JMHO
