Endeavour Silver, Aztec Minerals, ThyssenKrupp - Spoilt for choice: silver, gold or steel?
Despite recent setbacks in commodity prices and share prices, most experts believe that the current commodity bull market will continue for some time. The drivers are likely to be the global economic stimulus programs to overcome the consequences of the Corona Crisis, the climate crisis and the associated need for an energy turnaround, as well as the Chinese economy's continuing hunger for raw materials.

Still, many analysts believe this is more likely to be a short-term flash in the pan, given the overall situation. Below are three favorably valued stocks with which investors can profit from commodities.
