Rio Tinto plc looks attractive ahead of H1 earnings [video]

Big mining stocks like Rio Tinto plc (LON:RIO) are poster boys for volatility, but in reality offer a solid long-term story that I believe is a good way for income investors to diversify into commodities.

Following up on this thesem, I recently contributed an article to the Motley Fool UK, taking a closer look at Rio’s current valuation in the context of its past earnings.

You can read the Motley Fool article in full here, and you may also be interested in a video I contributed to for spread betting giant IG’s new television service, IG Player.

The video piece takes a look at Rio’s prospects ahead of this week’s earnings announcement and highlights key areas that could provide earnings growth this year.

Sadly the video is no longer available!
