While many investors think of gold as a hedge or a safe haven, gold miners are not the same as physical gold. They are businesses -with revenue, costs, margins, management teams, and operational risks. Using TYKR’s analysis, we explore how many of the companies inside GDX are rated “On Sale,” how many are overpriced, and what that means for long‑term investors. Sean also breaks down the important distinction between wealth building and wealth protection. ETFs, index funds and mutual funds are excellent tools for protecting wealth, but they’re not always the best vehicles for long-term compounding. We also discuss why gold often trades flat when broader markets rally, and why investors should be cautious about assuming recent performance will continue.Disclosure: The links provided are affiliate links.

My guest this week is Vincent Randazzo, founder of ViewRight Advisors and creator of the Defender Program. Vincent draws on over a century of market data to help investors manage risk in volatile markets. He empowers beginners and advisors to protect portfolios while capturing growth, without timing every move. Vincent entered the industry in 2002, right into a bear market. This shaped his views on real markets versus textbook averages. He built Defender as a rules-based system that adjusts stock exposure based on market conditions. It examines signs of strength or weakness and dials exposure up or down. In healthy markets, stay fully invested. When conditions deteriorate, reduce exposure to limit losses.Episode Blog Post: https://www.sharesforbeginners.com/blog/viewright-randazzo📈 CHECK OUT THESE INVESTING TOOLS: 🌎 Level up your investing with Sharesight, Investopedia’s #1 portfolio tracker for DIY investors.

My guest this week is Thomas Lamb, CEO of Myriad Uranium Corporation. Thomas brings a unique background to the table—he started in classics and law before diving into mining. We discussed his journey from building a gold producer in Mexico to leading uranium projects in the US after a pivot from Niger due to a military coup.Thomas explained the uranium sector's dynamics. The world produces about 160 million pounds annually but consumes 200 million, with stockpiles dwindling. This drives prices from $30 to $75 per pound. Kazakhstan leads production at 43%, while the US consumes 50 million pounds but produces under 1 million.

Today, we're revisiting a classic episode with evergreen wisdom on building a solid investment foundation. It's my conversation with the late Graham Hand, founder and editor of Firstlinks—now part of Morningstar Australia.

Tony Kynaston is a former senior executive of companies like Coles and Shell. He started investing in the stock market 30 years ago and developed a simple checklist methodology (by studying people like Warren Buffett) that allowed him to retire from his corporate career at age 43 and become a professional investor. And he’s done pretty well since then. The average return on his portfolio over the last 20 years has been 19.5% per annum – double the ASX index. QAV stands for QUALITY AT VALUE. Tony's approach is to use a checklist to find companies that are performing well (quality) but which can also be bought at a discount (value). It's basically what is usually called "value investing".More info at https://www.sharesforbeginners.com/blog/kynastonTONY KYNASTON is a multi-millionaire professional investor. Thanks to the checklist system he developed, the average return on his portfolio over the last 20 years has been 19.5% pa. Tony's knowledge and calm analysis takes the guesswork (and trauma) out of share market investing.🌎 When you’re ready to go beyond ETFs, learn from the master - Tony Kynaston’s QUALITY AT VALUE.

My guest this week is Richard Hemming from Under the Radar Report. He shares three key investing lessons from his experience investing in small caps on the ASX. Richard starts with diversification. He stresses its importance in small caps due to higher volatility. Under the Radar limits any stock to 10% of a portfolio. They hold 14 to 20 stocks in flagship portfolios and 14 to 16 in dividend ones. Richard buys small positions first—1% or 2%—and builds to 5%. If it hits 10%, he takes profits.As friends of Shares for Beginners, Under the Radar Report is happy to offer listeners 10% off our products.

My guest this week is James Gruber, editor of Firstlinks and a veteran of Asian markets with a background in journalism and funds management. We dive into his contrarian views on dividend stocks and gold's role in portfolios. Our discussion stems from James's article "Why I Dislike Dividend Stocks."

In the world of investing, success often hinges on more than just numbers and market trends. Too much financial commentary focuses on investments rather than the people investing. There are way too many aspirational messages that lack the practical steps to put a plan in action.

Repeat Episode. Have been busy this week at the ASA QLD Invstor Summit on the Gold Coast. Saw Michael Kemp again and thought that this episode bore a repeat for all of the great investing insights. What does an epic poem written around 700BC tell us about investing? How are investors tempted to steer their money onto the rocks of investing underperformance? My guest is Michael Kemp, author of The Ulysses Contract.There's plenty of great lessons in this interview & much more in the book. There's a lot to avoid but as Michael says: "Don't be discouraged by all the negative arguments I'm putting forth. I don't believe you need to become a champion to become a really good investor. Market returns are fantastic returns as long as you achieve them. Don't try and shoot for the stars cuz you're probably full flat on your face. But if you accept that you're gonna be delivered market returns and you are patient, then market returns can be spectacular returns given the power of compounding."Blog post available at: https://www.sharesforbeginners.com/blog/ulysses📈 CHECK OUT THESE INVESTING TOOLS: 🌎 Level up your investing with Sharesight, Investopedia’s #1 portfolio tracker for DIY investors.
