    Nonetheless, there are many smaller players with slick investor presentations making promises of big rewards. That could sound intriguing if you've caught the gold bug, but it's important to remember the risks involved when investing in the industry. Luckily, some gold stocks come with big red flags and flashing red lights. Here's why investors might want to avoid Hecla Mining (NYSE:HL), Tahoe Resources (NYSE:TAHO), and Randgold Resources (NASDAQ:GOLD).
