Hey, new to investing. Been lurking a while and bought 100oz 2020 Silver Kangaroos. I've been engaging in discussions here on the last few /pmg/ threads and got happily spoonfed. I'm counting on you guys, sate my thirst for knowledge. I was planning on buying mining stocks but I have a couple of questions and hesitations holding me back. 1) When I search for a mining company (for example Bayhorse) they usually show their stock in US and Canadian markets. The course is the same and the price is the same, and I'd like to buy from the US markets because my broker has slightly higher fees for Canadian market. But nobody is buying or selling the US stocks. What does this mean? Can I only buy the Canadian stocks because the company is based there? 2) Would now be a good time to buy miners? If stocks plummet, the miners will take a hit too right? Should I hold out on miners? 3) Shouldn't I just buy short-term debts to at least get my money back? Stocks seem very volatile now. 4) Top 5 miners with great potential for returns? I don't mind moderate risk. I plan to use the Buffet strategy of investing into multiple high reward stocks. Feel free to post your other favorites as well even if they're low reward though, I would appreciate that too. 5) I'm aware miners as an investment require a lot of research (thankfully turbochads like Pan Man are here) and I would like to do my own reading as well before making an investment. Where do I get good information on a particular company?
