Top Canadian Stocks To Buy Right Now


Introduction

During the correction in the silver price of the last couple of years, many silver miners have been struggling to thrive as profit margins have been razor thin to negative. Some companies, however, have been able to grow significantly despite these market challenges. I would like to present you with my thoughts on one of these companies today, consider its potential going forward, and explain why I see the company as a leveraged bet on the silver price with reasonable downward protection.

Avino Silver & Gold Mines Ltd., (TSX-V: ASM NYSE-MKT: ASM FRANKFURT: GV6) is a Canadian based gold and silver junior mining company with precious metal projects in Canada and Mexico. The company operates two producing mines on its Avino property in Mexico and is currently producing close to 2.7 million silver equivalent ounces per year.

At the time of writing, Avino is trading at 1.49 USD per share and holds a market cap of approximately $80M USD. When observing the chart hereunder, my eyes see underlying strength over the long term. I say this fully aware that a continuation of declining silver prices could drive the stock price considerably lower than it already has since its latest peak of 2016. In my mind, however, this bear market will end, and I consider the current price point an ideal moment to accumulate or initiate a position.

    Oil prices haven’t gotten off to the fast start many expected, falling around 6% on average during the first quarter of the year. That slump came despite OPEC’s best efforts since producing nations have achieved fairly good compliance on their planned output cuts. That said, despite the lackluster oil market, we still see some interestingopportunities in the oil market. Three stocks we really like right now are DistributionNOW(NYSE:DNOW),Phillips 66(NYSE:PSX), andConocoPhillips(NYSE:COP), which all should do well in the current oil market.

    Second, how will the Dow get to that big magic number? Well, the six biggest stock weightings in the DJIA are: Goldman Sachs (GS), 3M (MMM), International Business Machines (IBM), UnitedHealth Group (UNH), and Boeing (BA). What you will notice looking at a day like yesterday is that tech led the way sector wise. If the Dow is going to outperform, we need mega caps to outperform. We need those six stocks to outperform. So we need a day where financials and industrials outperform to get there. Given the trends in sector leadership, that is bound to happen…We are one Trump tweet talking about how yuuuuuuge Goldman Sachs is away from 20k.
