TOP PICKS:
Franco Nevada (FNV TSX)
Superb assets, superb asset allocator. Over $4 billion in available liquidity, coming into the best deployment period in their history.
Wheaton Precious (WPM TSX)
Wonderful free cash flows, reasonably priced. Like Franco, coming into the best deployment period they have ever experienced, as a consequence of buying by product precious metals streams in support of copper build outs.
Agnico Eagle (AEM TSX)
Softer quarter masks built in, funded production pipeline. A true precious metals power house.
