Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 49 days.
The thesis — published July 21, 2025
Centerra’s share price slid 7% even after good drilling news, which suggests sellers may be running out of steam while fresh buying interest builds. On 2 Jul, National Bank raised its price goal, and big investors already own 89% of the stock, showing strong belief. Gold prices often perk up before autumn, and the company is keeping costs steady. Taken together, a move up to about $8.75, or 16% higher, in the next three months looks reachable for patient buyers.
Primary drivers
- Very low momentum plus improving recent average price hint the drop may soon reverse.
- National Bank lifted its price goal on 2 Jul, giving new support from a major bank.
- Large funds own 89% of shares, often keeping the price steadier when markets wobble.
- Gold prices often rise before autumn and cheaper borrowing costs help gold miners.
