In this interview a semi-retired Rick Rule offers mining stock wisdom via a 40-minute discussion with MSE host Bill Powers and Brian Leni of JuniorStockReview.com. Rick warns investors to not fall for mining stock value traps. He speaks to how he values development companies and determines discounts to NPV and valuation relative to peers. Rick discusses resource assets that go into receivership and why most investors do not profit from such a scenario. He explains why understanding balance sheets is far more important than assessing human behavior and how that affects share price. Rick elaborates on why he “loves circumstances where the shorts are against me.” Finally, Rick shares how he is able to legally conclude that a mining company has imminent good news coming without being explicitly told such. Enjoy this discipleship session with one of the best resource stock speculators of the past fifty years.
