Silver Miners Have Outrun Silver Since 2020
Since March 2020, silver has returned about 402%. The silver miners returned 445%.
That gap is the leverage our research team focuses on. When silver rises, a producer's net asset value can rise much faster, and share prices tend to follow. It works in both directions, and a mine is only as good as the company running it.
The Ultimate Silver Playbook shows how the team separates the miners worth owning from the rest, and which silver stocks are on its watchlist now. It's free.

Entergy Texas’ Orange County Advanced Power Station Now Delivering Power to Southeast Texas
Entergy Texas has officially placed its Orange County Advanced Power Station (OCAPS) into service, bringing a new 1,215-megawatt power plant online in Orange County. The facility can generate enough electricity to power more than 230,000 homes and is expected to deliver over $1 billion in long-term customer savings through lower fuel and operating costs. The plant uses combined-cycle technology, producing more electricity from the same amount of fuel by recapturing heat that would otherwise be wasted. Construction of OCAPS generated approximately $1.8 billion in economic activity and supported more than 7,000 direct jobs. Orange Mayor Larry Spears Jr. called it “a significant addition for The Golden Triangle area” that will help the community better prepare for extreme weather.
