IREN, Caterpillar, Cipher Mining, Newmont, and MP Materials are the five Mining stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Mining stocks are shares of companies that explore for, develop, extract and sometimes process mineral and metal resources (e.g., gold, silver, copper, iron, coal). For investors, they provide exposure to commodity prices and potential upside when resource prices rise, but also carry risks tied to operational challenges, geopolitical and environmental issues, and capital-intensive business cycles.
