One answer is: with dividends! It were and are especially the commodity fans which made/make up the following term: dividends are the new interests. One thing is mainly unknown: Especially commodity companies partial offer high dividends and profit from a coming, new commodity age, like the uranium major Cameco, one of the largest gold- and PGM-producer Sibanye-Stillwater, which distributes a property dividend, the gold producer Caledonia Mining (pays dividends of up to 4% p.a.), just as Harmony Gold and Osisko Gold Royalties. Fortescue Metals paid a dividend of 11% and Royal Dutch Shell of 8% in 2017.
