Not especially. It depends on location/findings/M&A's in the sector and general global demand. When there's recession/economic slowdown there's less demand for metals as production tends to slow.

thanks.

M&A's? what are these?

i hear recesssion = people switch to safer commodity stocks. Metals are essential.

So demand for metal = metals price goes up = mining stocks go up....? correct?

seems to me, that the only two things that affect mining stocks is
1) economic news
2) Metals price

If metal price goes up, the sales profit goes up of a mining company.

any thoughs?
