Mar 26, 2013 (SmarTrend(R) News Watch via COMTEX) -- Below are the three companies in the Gold industry with the lowest forward earnings yields. Using projected earnings for the current fiscal year, the forward earnings yield is useful to compare a stock's return vs. owning a similar stock or other yield assets (e.g. bonds). Generally, the higher the earnings yield, the more undervalued the stock.Royal Gold ranks lowest with a forward earnings yield of 2.5%. Following is Franco-Nevada with a forward earnings yield of 2.7%. Gammon Gold ranks third lowest with a forward earnings yield of 3.7%.



Agnico-Eagle Mines follows with a forward earnings yield of 5.1%, and Eldorado Gold rounds out the bottom five with a forward earnings yield of 6.1%.

SmarTrend recommended that its subscribers protect gains by selling shares of Eldorado Gold on September 26th, 2012 by issuing a Downtrend alert when the shares were trading at $14.42. Since that call, shares of Eldorado Gold have fallen 32.3%. We are now looking for when a new Uptrend will commence and will alert SmarTrend subscribers in real time.
