HL

un-hot

Yes, via S&S ISA, used HL but it gets fairly expensive after a few years with the .45% fee. Trading 212 is good but don't get reeled into their CFD platform or social media style features. App feels designed to help you make uninformed decisions. Recommendation would be play it safe, stick to VWRP and focus your learning time on your degree for now. Deep dive investing when you've got more time and more concrete plans for after graduation, bc you probably won't have either for a while at uni.

I’ve been long gold and silver stocks for a couple of years and added to my position during the recent pullback. Even with higher oil prices, the increased revenue from rising gold and silver prices should more than offset the impact of higher energy costs.

Up on, Blaize holding, and i have Renx enterprises but renx are doing 1-20 reverse share, so obviously the stock has gone up but I can't trade to sell on my app is that normal? I'm with HL, since they need to reverse the share do I need to sell reverse shares like that before the date, "sorry still learning about stocks"

Invest in the mind that ate selling direct:  AG, HL

Jacked-to-the-wits

Silver miners seem stupidly cheap. EXK, AG, PAAS, HL are all trading as though silver is under $50. Yes the price has come down, but $68 a heck of a lot higher than $50. If you think silver will actually go below $50, an easy pair trade is short silver, long silver miners.

Why doesn't Kim Jong Un long oil on HL then just start shooting at oil sites

ThePokemon_BandaiD

I actually made like 200% on AG and HL calls, took profits and then secured similar margins on USO calls ahead of the weekend. Still holding a july call on HL that's down and I've got USO calls that are about flat at the moment. I've had good timing, but I think the general trajectory will continue.

BklynMoonshiner

HL is the best part of the already very good show

Thinking of starting a position in $HLI-Houlihan Lokey. They are an investment banking company that provides M&A services, financial restructurings, and liability management. Ratios look good and they focus on middle markets while also having a solid footprint in.Europe. PE firms have a lot of money waiting to deploy and need a trusted advisor to move it. Also, someone mentioned a while ago about the 'Silver Tsunami' business owners maybe all not having successors and/or family who wants the business. Good dividend, growth looks to be picking up on the M&A side. [Latest Presentation ](https://s201.q4cdn.com/762092546/files/doc_financials/2026/q3/Q3-FY26-HL-Investor-Presentation.pdf)

Silver miners and gold: IAUM & SLIJ & HL Silver has been ripping because of industrial demand- solar panels, EV batteries and PCBs but it also has a track record of going up because of wars.

TetonHiker

I hopped into AG and NG recently. Both hitting new highs right now but I understand the big guys are NEM, B, AEM, KGC and the like. As well as PAAS, HL, WPM, etc. You are probably right that an ETF might be reasonable for big guys and one focussed on the juniors. I just hate paying their fees, so I'll keep evaluating. Always interested in learning from others. Just starting my research. Been invested in uranium for years and it's paid off well (with much more upside to come) but I think the explosion in silver and gold miners, as they get repriced relative to the run-ups in silver and gold, is much closer at hand. Plan to get better invested for that run up shortly. Any advice on good ways to get better educated welcome!

Kection

Think I fell for some MM DD.. Read a DD earlier this week that concluded they're favoring Hecla Mining (HL) and I went long and they're red on the week despite their primary mining resource silver being up ~20%.

HL

kabbowkabbow

yeah i lied for brevity i'm not actually in $SIL i'm in $AG and $HL

kabbowkabbow

yeah i can't buy ETFs at my location so miners seemed like the best silver proxy, and also they haven't run up as much as SLV so i'm thinking earnings for AG and HL might give them a bump

majorhigh

I'll be buying more AG, HL, and possibly SLVR come Monday. A lot of profit taking but also a lot of tight stop-losses being triggered followed by probably mostly all the stop-losses. A lot of those that sold will be buying right back in, you see it all the time. I think silver could stabilize at around $100/oz followed by the typical volatility thereafter. Even after the 30% drop, I'm still 30% to the good, so there's room to test a bounce back.

ricincali

Ok. Fair value for silver is like what follows as far as typical gold to silver price ratios, and TA of the charts bears it out • Using a broader historical/modern average often referenced around 65:1: Fair value ≈ $4,893 ÷ 65 ≈ $75.30 per ounce. • If using a lower-end “typical” like 50–55:1 (seen in stronger silver periods): Fair value would be higher, around $89–$98. So if you choose to fool with it I WOULD HEDGE ALL POSITIONS or be willing to lose it all. I would be much more inclined to not try and play both sides. I would simply pay the premium and buy put option that were dated 3 to 4 quarters out on some miners with options liquidity like NGD and HL. I’ll be running a list of optionable junior miners with a share price under $20. I would look at some TA and try to match the timing to silver being between $84 and $89. I would buy deep in the money puts dated to Jan 2027. Using HL as a current example. The price is like $22.52 and the $17 put is 3.25 or so. If silver spot was at least $84 it would be go-time. I’d honestly prefer something cheaper on a per-share basis, like NGD, but you get the idea. The reason I would choose miners to do this with…and junior miners (HL is not a junior) in particular is because when the underlying metal decreases in price - the juniors typical crash 3x-5x more than the underlying metal. I wouldn’t be greedy about it. I’d take profits completely after any $10 move and be happy with that. I wouldn’t put more than 10% of funds into any one trade and I would double-down if the silver price rose to $89 and then I’d sleep on it until it retraced to that $75 area. YMMV and monitor your buy levels carefully. Give yourself plenty of time as weird geopolitical things or bank f\*ckery can cause pricing anomalies. I personally would not play the pump…. I have always done better on PMs on the dump side, historically. For me that is two decades or so. Full disclosure - I sold all my PM-related junior miners for really nice profit 3 days before this “event”. This is documented in my old posts. Honestly……tempted to ignore my own advice and take back some small position in deep OTM calls on NGD and outright purchase of CPPKF, which are best-in-class junior miners.

DrElkSnout

patience is the key here. I loaded up on the first major dip after open. then the second one was like, damn! But look closely at the miners like CDE, HL, B, NEM, etc. They dumped, but then leveled out in a really fascinating way. This was a needed correction, but we're going to blow past these ATHs at some point. HOpefully it happens in time for you to exit those calls nicely. Good luck brother.

DrElkSnout

Agreed. Things are getting dicey in the metals world. I personally loaded up this morning and bought a shitload of NEM, CDE, HL and B to add to my positions and re-balance my port.

DrElkSnout

serious lag on HL rn

DrElkSnout

This entire sub spent nearly a year downvoting me as I was saying CDE is a no-brainer. HL and NEM too, but CDE I truly went 'all-in' on. Held through the October bust and am holding to $75+, particularly with the New Gold acquisition. It is STILL a no-brainer. Gold and silver are just warming up.

tower_upright_XVI

Somewhere in there announce partnership with Steam to co-develop HL3

Anyone know or has a guess as to why HL is down since Friday and SLV is up since Friday. I have 50 of the June $28 calls. So a sizable position.

Just buy HL (Hecla Mining) if you wanna hop on the silver train. Down 5% in the last hour. Even if silver crashes, they'll be printing money like never before.

Hecla $HL 2025 silver production released +5% yoy silver production, 17Moz AISC (production cost) $15/oz, after selling byproducts negative costs -$1.5/oz Probably one of the most profitable companies on the planet right now

Xander-XGCS

As for Tungsten West, when tickers are moving like this I usually feel its a good idea to zoom in if I feel like managing a position day to day as something like this would require. I've noticed when things start having this strong of a trend, they will ride the upper bound of the 2000 Bollinger band (can you tell I love stacked Bollinger bands?). So I would wait for it to return to that area and form a new HL before entering.

lhbruen

I bought hundreds of shares of HL back when it was sub $8, and sold around $14, thinking it wouldn't get much higher for a long time. Not even 6 months later and it's over $30... I'm not a bear, but I'll be right there with them in therapy 🐻

Neat_Database6685

I opened a few SIL positions Thurs, exp 4/17. 2 ITM one OTM. If futures hold, will be up about 50% at open tomorrow. Opening up positions in ERO tomorrow…somewhat same-ish strat, exp 5/15, some ITM, some slightly OTM. Exits set on both at around +120%. That’s my set-up, do your own analysis. Check out HL, will prob get in that tomorrow, too. The miners are on 🔥Just plan your exit, don’t get greedy. You could do spreads for insurance but with the current momentum I didn’t. There’s enough time if they pull back a little it won’t be too painful. Good luck 🍀

pink_ego_box

AYA is >90% silver, debt free, only available on the Toronto stock exchange but coming to the Nasdaq in April. One of the few pure silver players. Also is sitting on a gigantic gold reserve, one of the largest and highest grade in the world, called Boumadine, which is not priced at all in the stock. The TSE listing is probably dragging them down but they have options in CAD on IBKR. Prime target for an acquisition by larger companies with all the billions in cash the whole sector printing. That plus SBSW, AG, HL, EXK, NEM, ARMN and some undervalued lower caps like RIOFF, TUD, VSO, GORO

defiantnoodle

I would look at HL Hecla Mining. It's been a great stock to own, and great premiums

pink_ego_box

Last year in Q1 silver miners sold their metal at 30, had costs of $20 and margin of $10. In this Q1 they're selling metal at $100, same costs, margin $80. That's 8X in earnings in a year. Yet in the same time SILJ only did a 3.5X, AG 4.5X, AYA 2.5X, HL 6X, CDE 4X. All silver miners are undervalued and will go through a brutal re rating after earnings.

gerzreddit

calls on AG, HL RZT for longshot

pink_ego_box

At this point the highest torque is in Silver miners. Not the metal itself. HL CDE AG AYA.

pink_ego_box

CDE, AG, HL, AYA, GORO, NEM slightly OTM leaps will print hard. They're priced like Silver was still 30-40 and Gold 3500. You're welcome.

megaboz

SIL has WPM heavily weighted (22.66% currently) so maybe that has something to do with it?  Most silver is produced as a byproduct of mining gold, copper, zinc and lead so if SIL is not composed solely of pure play silver miners, what is happening in those other commodities is going to play a role in returns.  WPM itself is not a pure silver play as it has gold streaming deals. Timing also surely comes into play.  There may be different starting points where miners do outperform silver over the short/medium term.  Long term, IDK... I started buying Jan 27 LEAPs a month ago on SILJ, AG, HL and CDE.  They are doing pretty good (+96%, +91%, +98%, +77%).  My timing was OK (would have been better to buy them a year ago of course)

TheOldGunsmith

My wife and I own shares in GLNCY, HL, RIO, VALE, NEW, CDE and KGC. Be careful in mining stocks, especially the junior ones as there is quite a bit of fraud and deceit. One highly speculative position we own is in Aterian PLC ORD which trades as ATN:GB on Fidelity. It is a London UK based mining company that has some interesting acreage in central and North Africa. Of additional interest, they are building out a trading market for local miners to sell their minerals on.

GettinFroggyHere

I just glanced at this company. It doesn't look too bad when compared to PPTA. I80 doesn't seem to be producing any kind of significant marketable metals anywhere, all of their mines seem to be in construction or exploration phases (although they do show a small amount of revenue). They have a market cap of $1.5billion, compared to PPTA's $2.2billion (they have one mine early in construction and are trading at $32, but have also recieved DoD funding). I80 says they produce critical minerals, but it's a footnote rather than a highlight. PPTA is a gold company, but you wouldn' know it based on how they have used critical minerals to position them and gain investors. Looking at I80, I have to wonder if they are presenting themselves to the world all wrong. Look at HYMC, and look at HL. What is I80's problem? In this market, they should have 10x'd last fall, and tripled again since Jan 1. What do you attribute their relatively terrible performance to?

pink_ego_box

CDE AYA SBSW HL AG NEM TUD VSO... Analyse each with Gemini and go with the ones you like Don't ape on one stock, mines can get flooded, countries can nationalize, CEOs can dilute

KowtaK3

I think in the grand scheme we already pay for dealing charges so ongoing management fees are unnecessary for me. I don't know which providers you had experiences with but I tried to switch to AJ Bell and it's crap, despite the low fees. Trading 212 so far it's been a good switch but, unlike HL, the choice of funds is very limited. But at least the fees are very low. The best so far. Robinhood is also entering the UK market with ISA so that might be a game changer. Never tried Interactive Brokers but it seems very good if you need technical tools.

KowtaK3

Was that a single transaction? HL must have robbed you with their fees for that. They are too expensive to trade stocks in my opinion.

Rubiscon95

EXK, ASM, PAAS, HYMC, HL, CDE and leaps on gold majors, AEM, B, NEM

DrElkSnout

I have made a few non-standard plays. the past year was the best to me. I'm a momentum trader that lets the wind carry my portfolio in the right direction. Biggest winners of 2025 for me personally were OKLO, CDE, NEM, HL, GOOGL and LTBR. Emphasis on OKLO and LTBR, who trade nearly tick for tick, and the premiums on both for options plays have been juicy for months. I ran the wheel a lot last year, but kept getting shares snatched away so quit with the covered calls... dumb in a bull run with a winner. I'm incredibly bullish on LTBR in particular, but they trade in this fascinating channel that allows tons of money to be made and the options are nice. My rotation now is to capitalize on the remainder of this metals run for however long it lasts, then take profit and average down with the house's money, and then rotate heavily into copper (RIO), coal for the energy transition while nuclear ramps up (BTU) and various infrastructure / industrial plays like CAT and ROK. Good luck to you.

SameCategory546

dang i forgot about this one. I have calls in CDE, BTG, AG, HL, EXK, and I picked up FSM. I was reading calvin froege on twitter and he mentioned asx microcaps with potential 10 baggers for companies trading for pennies that are going into production this year. I’m therefore going to just start playing in that part of the world instead

When you watchlist on HL it gives you a % return from when you watchlisted. It doesn’t give you a cost you paid and the amount of shares you own…

Yep. HYMC, HL, FCX, and KCG. I think they are all about to hit. Might be tomorrow might be next year. There has been a lot of government funding thrown into the mining industry.

Silver, gold, UNH. HL up 3%

megaboz

The market may be waiting for confirmation that higher silver/gold prices are hear to stay before miners catch up. If you already have conviction that they are, it might be easier to invest in miners at this point. I've had conviction that gold miners were undervalued and gold was going higher for over a year. Enough conviction to start investing in leveraged EFTs (NUGT/GDXU). These ETFs are volatile and not designed to be held long term, but my theory was any losses from decay would be more than offset by gains. It's worked out so far. I paid less attention to silver and only got into it mid last year. I've used AGQ (2x futures) to boost returns initially and currently have positions in PSLV, AG, and LEAPs in AG, HL, CDE and SILJ. Copper companies that generate silver as a byproduct may be worth a look as well. Most silver is produced as a byproduct of mining something else (e.g. lead, zinc, gold, copper). Copper prices are not doing too bad either right now. Another way to play this is Sprott (SII). As more money pours into commodity related funds their AUM will increase. I added that a month ago and it's up 33%. If you think other people will be investing in commodities that's a way to gain exposure without the volatility of going into metals themselves or miners. (I've read and relied heavily on research reports from [gorozen.com](http://gorozen.com) for the last five years. They identified very early on topics that I've been seeing come up on Youtube commentators more recently including precious metals/miners prices, financial system reset, and end of the carry trade)
