As 2019 winds to a close, investors have plenty of data they can use to pick winners for the remainder of the year. Trends in asset classes and company financials – as well as stock prices themselves – can be extrapolated to predict outperformers. And for believers in fundamentals, a number of the following stocks look attractive on those terms as well. Nominally cheap stocks, let’s say those trading for less than $15 a share, enjoy higher liquidity, which means narrower bid-ask spreads and confidence you’ll be able to sell when necessary. What follows are seven of the best cheap stocks to buy for the rest of 2019.

Kinross Gold (ticker: KGC)
Despite advancing more than 50% year-to-date, shares of Canadian gold and silver miner Kinross Gold still trade near the $5 level, making KGC the cheapest stock to buy, on an absolute basis, on this list. Gold and silver prices have both been rising in 2019; slowing global growth coupled with falling interest rates and trade war uncertainty all helped precious metals rally – as they often do when investors seek safe-haven investments en masse. Gold is up 20% year-to-date to roughly $1,530 per ounce, with silver prices advancing 13% year-to-date to the mid-$17 range. Kinross Gold is worth more than $6 billion, and shares trade for about 19 times forward earnings.
