Average sales price of gold was $3539 – higher than I thought it would be. Only a $.07 more than last quarter, probably should have beat by more than that which might be why they are down. I know the high-end range of estimates was $1.81.
They kept their dividend at $1 per share, even though they are set to earn around $7 a share. Not exactly rewarding their shareholders or protecting the share price are they?
I think AEM might be next in line. They seem to have better management.
Edit: NEM isn’t being beaten too bad.
The metals didn’t have that great a day with rates back at 4%. Might be sketchy until the Fed cuts .25 next week again.
I am so cynical about Fall st and this sector , that it wud not suprise me if the analysts deliberately pushed forecasts hi, so they can hardly ever beat.
Re NEM that is a beat, anyway u look at it…yet the stocks trades down as per usual…..which has to tell us that there are vast shorts…..if that was an AI stock..it wud be bid thru the roof, as everyone is long…..
Re share lending…I seem to remember that if you place a GTC order to sell yr shares above the market, yr broker can’t lend the shares, sp put an order in 100 % above todays price and …rememeber it.
Others I’ve read say unless you specifically notify your broker that you will not allow your shares to be lent out in your margin account, the broker has a right to do so.
I liken it to what the WEF and WHO has done to say a country has accepted and approved of their shenanigans. If you don’t specifically notify them that you DO NOT approve, they consider that you HAVE approved. (Implied consent)
They’ve bet the farm on NEM. It’s pretty much carrying the HUI, although B and AEM are helping some.
My concern is that most of the quarter prices weren’t a lot higher than Q2 and won’t reflect recent gains which will be blockbuster this quarter.
Really hoping they come through.👍
I just checked with our brokerage account ( Schwab) how the lending out of shares works.
I was told that unless your account goes into “margin debt” status ( if you’re account is worth $100,000, yet you borrow more $ than what your account is presently worth), the shares in your account are not lent out…….
Looks like the scum are working overtime to try and thwart any positive momentum to PM shares ( been closely watching how NEM is trying to be held in check, just before earnings come out….
The shares are being limited by those top lines ….once/if they break, we shud see the shares power ahead, as they are well undervalued relative to current prices…..
