Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 34 days.
The thesis — published December 17, 2025
Company actions (paying off a $130M loan, starting a buyback, and getting court approval on a deal) make the stock more defensible short-term. The technical picture shows some upside but recent buying looks driven by excitement, so it's safer to wait for price dips that hold before buying. Treat as a short-term miner trade, not a long-term core holding.
Primary drivers
- Paying debt and buybacks make the stock more stable
- Deal approval supports future growth plans
- Gold price swings can make the stock move faster
- Sentiment-driven buying increases reversal risk
