As metals markets weather volatility, optimism for a &#8220;V-shaped recovery&#8221; is gaining traction. JPMorgan analysts Dominic O&#8217;Kane and Patrick Jones suggest <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/12/42692036/billionaire-investors-michael-burry-david-tepper-could-benefit-from-chinas-stimulus-measures">China's expected fiscal stimulus</a> could be the turning point for the sector. 
With metal prices poised for a rebound, they urge investors to &#8220;accumulate positions in oversold miners&#8221; like Anglo American PLC (OTCQX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NGLOY#OTCQX">NGLOY</a>) (OTCQX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAUKF#OTCQX">AAUKF</a>), First Quantum Minerals Ltd (OTCPK:FQVLF) and Lundin Mining Corp (OTCPK:LUNMF).
Exchange-traded funds like the SPDR S&amp;P Metals &amp; Mining ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XME#NYSE">XME</a>), the iShares MSCI Global Metals &amp; Mining Producers ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PICK#NYSE">PICK</a>) provide diversified exposure to the metals and mining sector.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Mining Stocks Set For Revival?</h2>
The 17% decline in European metals &amp; mining stocks since late September 2024 reflects market caution amid tariff risks and US$/CNY devaluation. However, analysts see this downturn as an opportunity for strategic investment. Anglo American faces near-term challenges, including $2 billion in impairments and delays in its diamond divestment strategy. Despite this, the company may emerge as an M&amp;A target post the Anglo Platinum de-merger.
Lundin Mining and Norsk Hydro ASA (OTCQX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NHYDY#OTCQX">NHYDY</a>) stand out as resilient picks, with strong fundamentals that may help them weather tariff-related uncertainties. 
Analysts maintain a positive outlook on these names, expecting them to benefit from the broader market recovery.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Gold Stocks Shine Amid Market Turbulence</h2>
Gold continues to prove its mettle as a safe-haven asset, with prices projected to rise to $2,100 per ounce. 
Stocks like AngloGold Ashanti PLC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AU#NYSE">AU</a>), Hochschild Mining PLC (OTCQX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HCHDF#OTCQX">HCHDF</a>), and Fresnillo PLC (OTCPK:FNLPF) remain key picks by the analysts, supported by strong silver production forecasts and rising demand for precious metals.
The VanEck Gold Miners ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GDX#NYSE">GDX</a>) and the VanEck Junior Gold Miners ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GDXJ#NYSE">GDXJ</a>) are popular ways to get exposure to gold miners&#8217; stocks.
The analysts highlight Fresnillo's silver production strength, placing it on a Positive Catalyst Watch.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">China's Stimulus: The Tipping Point?</h2>
All eyes are on the March 5 National People&#8217;s Congress, where China is expected to announce fiscal measures that could fuel a surge in metal prices. 
The analysts believe these moves could trigger a sharp market recovery, solidifying the case for accumulating positions in mining stocks before a potential uptrend.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Takeaway</h2>
As metals markets teeter on the edge of revival, accumulating oversold miners may offer strategic value ahead of a &#8220;V-shaped recovery.&#8221;

Will Gold, Mining Stocks Ride A 'V-Shaped Recovery'? Analysts Say Accumulate 'Oversold Miners'

Investors looking for stocks in the Metal Products - Procurement and Fabrication sector might want to consider either Norsk Hydro ASA (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nhydy#OTC">NHYDY</a>) or Northwest Pipe Co. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nwpx#NASDAQ">NWPX</a>). But which of these two stocks presents investors with the better value opportunity right now? Let&#39;s take a closer look.
There are plenty of strategies for discovering value stocks, but we have found that pairing a strong Zacks Rank with an impressive grade in the Value category of our Style Scores system produces the best returns. The proven Zacks Rank emphasizes companies with positive estimate revision trends, and our Style Scores highlight stocks with specific traits.
Norsk Hydro ASA has a Zacks Rank of #2 (Buy), while Northwest Pipe Co. has a Zacks Rank of #3 (Hold) right now. The Zacks Rank favors stocks that have recently seen positive revisions to their earnings estimates, so investors should rest assured that NHYDY has an improving earnings outlook. But this is just one piece of the puzzle for value investors.
Value investors analyze a variety of traditional, tried-and-true metrics to help find companies that they believe are undervalued at their current share price levels.
The Style Score Value grade factors in a variety of key fundamental metrics, including the popular P/E ratio, P/S ratio, earnings yield, cash flow per share, and a number of other key stats that are commonly used by value investors.
NHYDY currently has a forward P/E ratio of 10.48, while NWPX has a forward P/E of 15.17. We also note that NHYDY has a PEG ratio of 0.20. This metric is used similarly to the famous P/E ratio, but the PEG ratio also takes into account the stock&#39;s expected earnings growth rate. NWPX currently has a PEG ratio of 3.03.
Another notable valuation metric for NHYDY is its P/B ratio of 1.17. The P/B ratio pits a stock&#39;s market value against its book value, which is defined as total assets minus total liabilities. For comparison, NWPX has a P/B of 1.27.
Based on these metrics and many more, NHYDY holds a Value grade of A, while NWPX has a Value grade of C.
NHYDY stands above NWPX thanks to its solid earnings outlook, and based on these valuation figures, we also feel that NHYDY is the superior value option right now.

Hydro has decided to reduce its ownership in synthetic graphite producer Vianode, based in Norway, from 30 to&nbsp;19.9 percent.
On September 6, the private equity fund Altor exercised a put option requiring Hydro to acquire an additional&nbsp;20 percent&nbsp;of Vianode. This transaction has not been executed.
Hydro has agreed with Altor to cancel the put option and has further sold&nbsp;10.1 percent&nbsp;of Vianode to Altor. Hydro&#39;s remaining shareholding is&nbsp;19.9 percent&nbsp;and Hydro will step down from the Board of Directors of Vianode.
As part of the agreement, Hydro and Altor have a mutual put/call option for the remaining&nbsp;19.9 percent&nbsp;of shares, which will be exercised no later than February 28, 2025.

Earnings Preview: Norsk Hydro

Reflecting the world&rsquo;s uncertainty about the U.S. economy, the market&rsquo;s major indices saw incredible volatility in May.&nbsp;
Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that track major indices tell this story with relative clarity. The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSEARCA: SPY), for example, reached a high of $429.66 and hit a low of $380.54 in May before closing at $412.93. The Fidelity Nasdaq Composite Index ETF (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/oneq#NASDAQ">ONEQ</a>) and the SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF (NYSEARCA: DIA) displayed similar erratic behavior.&nbsp;
Despite the volatility of the market, OTC Markets Group Inc. (OTCQX: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/otcm#OTCQX">OTCM</a>)&rsquo;s regulated markets&nbsp; experienced a steady increase in total monthly dollar volume, recording $44.5 billion in May compared to $40.6 billion in April. Additionally, the operator saw a former OTCQB Venture Market security springboard onto the OTCQX Best Market&rsquo;s List of 10 Most Active Securities in the same month it <a href="https://financialpost.com/globe-newswire/otc-markets-group-welcomes-sprott-physical-uranium-trust-to-otcqx">upgraded</a> from the OTCQB. .&nbsp;
Both the OTCQX Best Market and the OTCQB Venture Market maintained significant international presence, recording a total of 39 international operators among the top most-traded securities in each market.&nbsp;
<h3>The OTCQX Best Market Most-Active Securities Welcomes New Faces</h3>
The OTCQX Best Market recorded $11 billion in trading volume in May, an increase from April&rsquo;s $10.5 billion figure.&nbsp;
Retaining their spots as first-, second- and third-most traded securities on the OTCQX Best Market are&nbsp; Roche Holding AG (OTCQX: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/rhhby#OTCQX">RHHBY</a>), Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (OTCQX: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/gbtc#OTCQX">GBTC</a>) and Grayscale Ethereum Trust (OTCQX: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ethe#OTCQX">ETHE</a>).&nbsp;
The OTCQX&rsquo;s top 10 most-active securities experienced a slight reshuffle in May, welcoming AXA (OTCQX: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/axahy#OTCQX">AXAHY</a>), Danone (OTCQX: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/danoy#OTCQX">DANOY</a>) and OTCQB graduate Sprott Physical Uranium Trust Fund (OTCQX: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/sruuf#OTCQX">SRUUF</a>). Having been the most-traded security on the OTCQB Venture Market last month, Sprott was the ninth most-traded security on the OTCQX just one month later.
International operators, once again, maintain a strong presence on OTCQX composing 24 of the top 30 securities, up from 21 in April. France&rsquo;s BNP Paribas S.A. (OTCQX: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/bnpqy#OTCQX">BNPQY</a>) and Germany&rsquo;s Infineon Technologies AG (OTCQX: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ifnny#OTCQX">IFNNY</a>) and adidas AG (OTCQX: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/addyy#OTCQX">ADDYY</a>) were again on the OTCQX top 10 most-active securities, while Norway&rsquo;s Norsk Hydro ASA (OTCQX: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nhydy#OTCQX">NHYDY</a>) and Ireland&rsquo;s Experian plc (OTCQX: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/expgy#OTCQX">EXPGY</a>) made it among May&rsquo;s top 30 most-active securities.
Other notable movers:
&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Royal DSM NV (OTCQX: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/rdsmy#OTCQX">RDSMY</a>) claimed 15th place on the OTCQX&rsquo;s list of most-traded securities, experiencing a 160% change in trading volume from last month.</li>

</ul>
&nbsp;
<h3>The OTCQB Venture Market Welcomes A New Leading Company As Sprott Graduates To The OTCQX</h3>
The OTCQB Venture Market recorded $896 million in trading volume in May, a decline from April&rsquo;s $1.1 billion figure.&nbsp;
May introduced three new entities to the OTCQB&rsquo;s Top 10 Most-Traded Securities list. Government services operator Sysorex Inc. (OTCQB: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/sysx#OTCQB">SYSX</a>), Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp. (Freddie Mac) (OTCQB: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/fmcc#OTCQB">FMCC</a>) and portfolio management company Phoenix Rising Co. (OTCQB: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/prcx#OTCQB">PRCX</a>) represent the new faces on the block.
Newness seemed almost a theme in the OTCQB Venture Market in May. In addition to three new faces, all three of the top most-traded securities in the market changed with Northwest Biotherapeutics Inc. (OTCQB: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nwbo#OTCQB">NWBO</a>), Sysorex Inc. (OTCQB: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/sysx#OTCQB">SYSX</a>) and Netlist Inc. (OTCQB: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nlst#OTCQB">NLST</a>) taking positions as first, second and third most traded, respectively.
Fifteen international securities landed a spot among the top 30 most-traded securities. Of these 15 securities, nine are Canadian, three are Australian, one is English, one is South African and one is Swiss.&nbsp;
Other notable movers:&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Crimson Wine Group Ltd. (OTCQB: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cwgl#OTCQB">CWGL</a>) climbed to 24th place in the most-active group and recorded a $2.3 million rise in trading volume compared to last month.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Valour Inc. (OTCQB: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/deftf#OTCQB">DEFTF</a>) &mdash; formerly DeFi Technologies &mdash; experienced a $1.8 million increase in trading volume compared to March, climbing to 28th place on the OTCQB&rsquo;s Top 30.&nbsp;</li>
