What happened
Reached its target in 6 days.
The thesis — published January 16, 2026
Two things pushed the stock up: much stronger 2025 production and cash flow, and takeover talk that drew attention. Together these can keep the price higher for a few months, but the gains can disappear fast if the deal talk fades or gold weakens. Best to buy on price drops rather than chase sudden jumps.
Primary drivers
- Recent operations show better cash generation
- Takeover talk can keep buying interest in the shares
- Higher gold prices help the company's outlook
- Buying in stages manages event-driven swings
