In 21 Years of Investing, Gold Stocks Have Never Been This Compelling
For the past three months, investors have been taken for quite the ride. While stock market corrections are fairly common and bear markets inevitable, the current bear market is unlike anything we've ever seen before.
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has cost more than 39 million Americans their jobs, based on initial jobless claims filed over the previous nine weeks, and at one point, it erased 34% of the value of the S&P 500 in just 33 calendar days. It's the fastest bear-market correction Wall Street has ever witnessed.
In a broader sense, few sectors and industries have been spared from this weakness. But amid this market malaise, one industry is shining brighter than ever: gold mining.
