IREN, Freeport-McMoRan, and MP Materials are the three Mining stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Mining stocks are shares of publicly traded companies whose primary business is the exploration, extraction and processing of minerals and metals (such as gold, silver, copper or iron ore). Their stock prices tend to track the underlying commodity prices and can be more volatile due to factors like changes in supply and demand, geopolitical events and operational risks. Investors use them to gain direct exposure to the mining sector’s potential rewards and risks. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Mining stocks within the last several days.
