As usual a very good write up on Juniors from Clive Maund. Originally published February 3rd, 2009 on clivemaund.com For over 18 months most junior mining stocks have put in an absolutely terrible performance. The chart for the CDNX index, which best represents junior gold miners as it is made of about 500 stocks most of which are mining stocks, makes this abundantly clear - and many investors in the sector will not of course need reminding of this.
