Promising Gold Stocks To Consider – November 9th

Freeport-McMoRan, Newmont, and Barrick Mining are the three Gold stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat’s stock screener tool. Gold stocks are shares of companies whose primary business is the exploration, mining, refining, or financing of gold (including miners, junior explorers, and royalty/streaming firms). Their performance tends to be correlated with the gold price but also reflects company-specific factors (production costs, reserves, management, and geopolitical risks), so investors use them both for leverage to bullion moves and for diversified exposure to the gold sector. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Gold stocks within the last several days.
