What happened
Reached its target in 15 days.
The thesis — published September 8, 2025
Gold just hit a new high, which usually helps miners like Harmony because higher metal prices can quickly boost their profits. The company's latest year showed solid progress: earnings up 30% and sales up 24%, even with higher costs, so cash coming in looks healthier. Shares rose with gold this week. Near-term trading looks choppy, so consider buying on down days, expecting higher lows if gold stays firm.
Primary drivers
- Gold at record highs can quickly lift miner profits more than metal prices.
- FY25 showed earnings up 30% and sales up 24%, signaling healthier cash flow.
- Short-term price action is uneven, making buy-the-dip entries more attractive.
- This week's new gold high drew more interest and helped push Harmony's stock up.
