Basic material stocks are important for the economy. They are also very cyclic depending on commodity prices. Despite the downward trend of the economic growth worldwide, stocks from the sector are still on the buy list of many investors.
I screened some investment ideas from the basic material sector with a higher market capitalization (over $10 billion) and very high expected earnings per share growth of more than 15 percent yearly for the next five years. Nineteen companies fulfilled the mentioned criteria, three of which are high-yields and 17 are currently recommended to buy.
The two best results come from the gold and silver industry. Otherwise, the results are mainly marked by oil and gas related companies.
