Investment thesis

Caledonia Mining screens as a deeply undervalued, high-quality compounder with a wide moat and strong returns, and insiders and institutions are both reported as accumulating. A significant overbought reading and a recent negative news-driven downgrade argue for patience despite the strong underlying value and quality case, and earnings have been volatile through the trailing year.
