Tom welcomes back the legendary investor Rick Rule to discuss his nosy questions for the junior mining business. It's important to know the value proposition of a company before one focuses on share price. Successful investors form opinions as to value. The idea being to get it more correct than other investors. A share represents fractional ownership in a business. What is the business worth and what are the risks. If a series of things go right, what will be the value. Researching juniors requires great effort. Investing in yourself and your education is always timely. It's likely as the dollar rises that equity prices decline in juniors. If you want to maximize your return, then attempt to buy when things are on sale. Hone your skills and examine private placements if you're an accredited investor. Junior miners are destroyers of capital, and if consolidated into one company, they would lose billions a year. However, ten percent of them can perform fantastic. The purpose of these questions is to eliminate those that will likely underperform. The management of a company is of critical importance. You want to consider the probability that a particular group of people will be successful. Interestingly, four percent of management teams produce over sixty percent of the returns. Your aim is to hang out with serially successful people. That one percent of issuers that have generated forty percent of the returns. It isn't worth your while to only participate in someone's first success. You want teams that are flexible enough to recognize when they need to reposition or add job positions as the nature of projects change. You should develop a schedule for outcomes from unanswered questions of juniors. Should the answers to a series of questions work out, you should expect decent returns. Two red flags can be the cost of general administrative expenses compared to actual work in the ground. The second is a company with unrealistically low budgets for work that typically costs quite a bit more. Successful people should be excited about their project and more than willing to talk. They should love to participate because it flatters them.
