A stellar group of portfolio managers from mining’s larger funds, finance and streaming firms address near term challenges after a sell-off in global equities and the start of a period of high inflation not witnessed in decades.
The investors were resolutely optimistic for the commodities sector longer term, despite significant recent market dips and a flight from global equities, with mining stocks suffering too.
