Silvercorp Metals Inc (SVM)

[Picassa]

Silvercorp Metals Inc. (SVM) – Silvercorp is slightly above $6, which is also less than $1 above the yearly low set back in September. As with its competitors, the yearly high of slightly above $16 is a distant memory set back in April. What sets Silvercorp apart from its competitors is the steady dividend, paid like clockwork throughout silver's roller coaster ride over the past several years. With a healthy P/E of just 12.79 and the 1.5% yield, Silvercorp stands out in the industry. Using the miners as a means of speculating on silver prices is a strategy that has been in play for years, but to receive income while waiting for silver's next big move is unprecedented. As the primary silver producer in China, Silvercorp stands to benefit greatly from the continued expansion of China’s middle class. Despite the positive comments on Silvercorp, its share price is heavily tied to the price of silver. Yet, if you are bullish on silver and looking to put your money where your mouth is, Silvercorp seems to be a good fit.
