Jordan Rusche, Founder of Mining Stock Monkey, joins us for an in-depth and nuanced discussion around key metrics and trends in Q1 earnings reports from the gold and silver producers and PM royalty companies; along with which companies he is actively trading in his portfolio. 

We start out getting Jordan’s perspectives from this Q1 earnings season in the PM producers, touching upon initiatives around paying down debt, share buybacks, and dividends.  We counterbalance those trends with how companies are also investing in growth through mergers and acquisitions.

• We discuss some general takeaways in the earnings reports from how the majors are managing increasing costs from higher fuel costs to labor to sustaining capital in Newmont Corporation (NYSE: NEM, ASX: NEM, PNGX: NEM), Barrick Mining Corporation (NYSE:B)(TSX:ABX), and Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (NYSE: AEM) (TSX: AEM) .
• We check in on the positive market reaction in the Q1 report from B2Gold Corp. (TSX: BTO, NYSE AMERICAN: BTG, NSX: B2G), but Jordan also couches the enthusiasm with the fundamental factors pointing to the potential for rising AISC figures for the balance of this year.

• Jordan breaks down why Agnico Eagle paid a premium for Rupert Resources Ltd (TSX: RUP) (OTCQX: RUPRF) (FSE:R05), in the recent acquisition of their project in Finland.
• Next we shifted over to the record revenues witnessed in Q1 earnings reports from the royalty and streaming companies.  While revenues are up in a big way, that is not typically been from growing gold equivalent ounces (GEOs).  Jordan highlights the longer-term investing thesis required to realize the growth potential in production metrics in a company like Royal Gold, Inc. (NASDAQ: RGLD).
• Sticking with royalty companies, Jordan highlights the strong copper exposure and future growth on tap across multiple commodities in Elemental Royalty Corporation (TSXV: ELE) (NASDAQ: ELE).
