If you have no appetite for risk or have a large amount of money where small returns per share keep you happy then I would agree. Shares with a PE of 30 or 40 are i'm sure great for that.Your saying don't buy any share where there is no risk?
I on occasion buy shares that have no current pe.
Sure there is a very small chance that zinc could fall 30% in 1 day. What's the end result for this "worst case scenario"? ZFX still making heaps of cash. Anything can happen in the market but can I find any possible reason for zinc to fall 30% in 1 day - no.
The fundamentals of zinc and nickel are the best of the base metals (zinc is a laggard in the cycle).
If not really sure what point you are trying to make - buy only safe shares on a pe of 30 or 40 because they have less risk, or that there are better mining shares than ZFX out there? If it's the latter i'm more than happy to discuss the pro's and cons.
