Gold prices have kept up a slow, steady decline lately. Recently the precious metal busted through the $1,600 mark and is challenging lows now seen since July 2011. That means that many metal and mining stocks are also being held back.

Here they are, in alphabetical order. Each one of these stocks gets a “D” or “F” according to my research, meaning it is a “sell” or “strong sell.”
