Silver price to follow gold price
It is not inconceivable that we will see the silver price follow the gold price higher.
Gold usually leads the silver price by a year or two.We could see silver go to $20/ounce soon.
Case study:
Let's say silver goes from $15/ounce to $20/ounce. That's a rise of $5/ounce.
Endeavour silver has 10 million of silver production per year (Terronera included).
That would be an extra profit of 10 million x $5/ounce = $50 million per year.
Add a 10 P/E on that and you get a market cap of $500 million.
=> Endeavour silver could triple in stock price when this happens. Not to mention what would happen when silver goes higher than $20/ounce.

Stock Screener: Day 10: Neo Performance Materials (NEO)
If I don't have any ideas anymore what to buy, I use the stock screener.
Neo Performance Materials is a speculative play on the China rare earth export ban.
What you want to do is filter on 4 attributes: market cap, P/E, dividend yield and percentage change.
1) Market Cap: do not choose small companies as they are mostly fraudulent or don't have sustainable earnings. Don't choose big companies because these are not volatile enough to get fast profits from. I'd filter between 200 million and 4 billion.
2) P/E ratio: choose the companies with the lowest P/E ratio, these companies are dirt cheap while still having earnings. Cheap is below P/E of 5. But do not choose below P/E of 2 because those are mostly companies that are going bankrupt or have bad growth.
3) Dividend yield: always choose companies that have dividends, because these companies have real earnings and can prove they have sustainable earnings to reward investors. The higher the better of course, but don't push it above 7% as those companies probably don't have the money to pay out dividends on a regular basis. I'd go for companies with dividends between 3% and 7%.
4) Volatility: don't choose companies that are so volatile. Maximum year over year change should be between the 20% range.
