What happened
Reached its target in 64 days.
The thesis — published November 18, 2025
Last quarter, profit and sales came in higher than experts expected. Investor mood stays upbeat even though some funds are buying and others are selling. Price momentum looks healthy, with the recent average price rising. With gold prices supportive and operations running well, we prefer buying small dips for a short 0-3 month move as the market absorbs the strong results.
Primary drivers
- Last quarter profit and sales beat forecasts from Wall Street analysts
- Positive price momentum, with the recent average price continuing to rise
- Investor mood is upbeat while gold prices remain supportive across markets
- Larger operations can lift profits faster when gold strengthens and volumes grow
