Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 3 days.
The thesis — published February 9, 2026
Eldorado agreed to buy Foran for C$3.8B in shares, making the company bigger in both gold and copper. S&P putting the stock on CreditWatch positive reduces some financing worry. Right after big deals people often sell, causing a pullback; if buyers step in and the deal story calms, there may be a 0-3 month rebound. Main risks are trouble integrating Foran and swings in metal prices.
Primary drivers
- The Foran deal keeps investor focus on the company short term
- S&P's CreditWatch positive helps reassure funding stability
- The recent drop may offer a short-term buying opportunity
- Exposure to gold and copper could help if metal prices rise
