Gold and silver prices have been rising amid the latest U.S. and China spat as investors seek a safe haven from the turmoil. A successful deal could send equity prices higher, and capital could flow from metals back to the stock market.
I would caution investors from jumping into First Majestic and other silver miners. Its stock is up more than 80% this year as its earnings have exploded. However, this is because of the incredible rise in the price of silver. If silver declines, First Majestic's stock will follow suit, and its decline could be amplified.
