Rob McEwen gold market

Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged.Today, mining legend and CEO of McEwen Mining, Rob McEwen, talks about the recent surge in gold stocks and why we are still in the early innings of a long-term bull market.

McEwen then talks about his early years in the mining industry. This includes death threats, class action lawsuits, and a four year strike which led to the creation of Goldcorp – one of the biggest gold producers in the world.

McEwen is pioneer in the mining industry. And McEwen Mining is one of the few shareholder-friendly companies in the industry that does not use leverage, pays a solid dividend and has huge insider ownership. It’s why he’s made his early investors a fortune in the mining industry over the past 40 years.

As always, thanks for listening and good investing.
