Welcome to Stocks and Beers with Rich!

This week Rich explains the who, what, when, where, and why of the stocks we’re buying.

There’s a vast array of stocks covered, so buckle yourself in! He talks about AMP, Woodside Energy, Austal, Northern Star, Evolution Mining, contractors, lithium miners and of course, beer.

More importantly, he discusses what they have in common. What separates them from the pack.

In this Week's Video:

• In the wake of the indiscriminate selling, Rich looks at some of the stocks that our portfolio manager, the Idle Speculator, has been throwing the purse at.

• Rich breaks down stocks we consider to be Small Cap Royalty, with strong balance sheets, and solid customer bases, and in the best circumstances, dividends.

• Austal (ASX:ASB) and why this shipbuilder is a value stock, with great operating leverage.

• A lithium producer with 10% of the global Lithium market, profitable, expanding and cashed up.

• A quality contractor that pays dividends, and is servicing mining, electrical, and infrastructure sectors, with big ticket customers. Positioned to take advantage of the electrification of Australia’s industry.

• Gold may move in mysterious ways, but gold producers generate big cash flow, even in times of rising cost. He looks at Evolution Mining (ASX:EVN) and Northern Star Resources (ASX:NST).
