Best Low Price Stocks To Watch Right Now

Leave a reply

Franco-Nevada Corporation (NYSE:FNV) is a gold streaming company that operates in the niche precious metals industry, which includes fellow giants Wheaton Precious Metals (NYSE:WPM) and Royal Gold, Inc. (NASDAQ:RGLD). While it’s the youngest of this gold and silver streaming stock trio, it’s also the biggest. However, relative size isn’t the only factor that separates Franco-Nevada from the pack. Here’s what investors need to know before buying its stock.

What Franco-Nevada does

Franco-Nevada’s core business is gold streaming. Simply put, it provides cash up front to miners in exchange for the right to buy gold, silver, and other commodities at reduced rates in the future.

Miners like streaming deals because they provide access to capital beyond the traditional bank, stock, and bond market sources that most companies rely on to finance their businesses. When times are tough for miners, like during commodity downturns, streaming deals can be an important lifeline to reduce debt and/or support spending on key projects. Franco-Nevada likes streaming and royalty deals because they lock in low prices for gold and silver. That provides the company with wide margins in both good markets and, perhaps more important, bad ones.
