Top 5 Canadian Mining Stocks This Week: Group Eleven Surges 69 Percent on Assay Results

Welcome to the Investing News Network's weekly look at the best-performing Canadian mining stocks on the TSX, TSXV and CSE, starting with a round-up of Canadian and US news impacting the resource sector.

The US Federal Reserve met on Tuesday (May 6) and Wednesday (May 7) for the third time in 2025. Ultimately, the committee decided to maintain its benchmark rate in the 4.25 to 4.5 percent range that was last set in November 2024.

Fed Chair Jerome Powell cited balance in the central bank’s dual mandate of price stability and maximum employment, but noted that the Trump administration's tariffs have been more aggressive than anticipated.

7 Copper ETFs and ETNs

There’s more than one way to invest in copper. In addition to buying shares of copper stocks, investors can gain exposure through copper exchange-traded funds (ETFs) or copper exchange-traded notes (ETNs).

For the uninitiated, ETFs are securities that trade like stocks on an exchange, but track an index, commodity, bonds or a basket of assets like an index fund. In the case of base metal copper, there are various options — an ETF can track specific groups of copper-focused companies, as well as copper futures contracts or even physical copper.

ETNs also track an underlying asset and trade like stocks on an exchange, but they are more like bonds — they are unsecured debt notes issued by an institution, and can be held to maturity or bought and sold at will. The main disadvantage to be aware of is that investors risk total default if an ETN’s underwriter goes bankrupt.
