Newmont gold miner shares in the green

ByVictoria

Shares in the gold miner are currently swapping hands at $76.60 apiece, more than 2% higher from the open as investors process the numbers.

2024 was a transformational year for Newmont, as we focused on the integration of the Newcrest portfolio, divestment of our non-core assets, and transitioning the business onto a stable operating and investment platform.

We have deliberately streamlined Newmont into the world’s best collection of Tier 1 gold assets, with a strong foundation of operational and financial performance. Our record fourth quarter gave a glimpse into the promising potential of the business and allowed Newmont to deliver record operating cash flows.

    Glencore’s steelmaking coal production in the first half soared following the integration of Elk Valley Resources, but copper and gold output fell.

    Elk’s contribution pushed first-half production expressed in copper equivalents up 5%. This is despite copper production falling 26% to 343,900 tons and gold output dropping 18% to 301,000 ounces.

    The FTSE 100-listed company said it was confident that it can deliver its full-year production guidance but tightened the ranges of some of its commodities to reflect its performance to date.

    Gold prices down after trade truce

    Gold prices have fallen almost 10% from a record high just above $3,500 per ounce in April as a de-escalation in U.S.-China trade tensions punctured momentum, but analysts are sticking with a bullish outlook due to strong underlying support for the metal.

    Spot gold was trading around $3,180 an ounce on Friday, leaving prices on track for their worst week in six months.

    “Gold prices are more likely to rise than to fall from this stage onwards as other factors like central bank demand and very strong investor demand from China are not going away anytime soon,” said Nitesh Shah, commodities strategist at WisdomTree.

    Shipments of refined copper from the central African country jumped by 71% year-on-year to 1.48 million metric tons in 2024. The Congo is now by some margin the largest supplier of refined metal to the world’s largest buyer.

    The Congo’s share of Chinese copper imports has risen from 10% in 2020 to 36.7% with volumes steadily increasing over the fourth quarter. December’s imports of 167,735 tons were a new monthly record.

    Mark Brennan, CEO and Chairman commented, “While Q2 results were modestly lower than our expectations as the heap leach continues to ramp up to its fully expanded capacity, we continue to be confident in our full year expectations as the underground operations ramp-up in H2/25. Cerrado also continued to progress both the Lagoa Salgada project and the Mont Sorcier projects towards completion of feasibility studies by Q3/2025 and Q1/2026 respectively, which we believe should demonstrate substantial value being unlocked by Cerrado’s development projects.”

    The Price Of Gold From 2021-22 Has Long Rejected ‘Bidenflation’

    Considering the price of gold throughout 2021, it averaged out to roughly $1,798/ounce, meaning the value of the dollar actually rose around 3 percent right at the time that the economy-sapping tax that is government spending continued under Biden, and allegedly caused “inflation.” To be clear, government spending is the worst tax of all exactly because it substitutes central planning of resources by the government for that of the private sector. Still, it logically doesn’t cause higher prices, or “inflation,” and it didn’t if gold is to be believed.

    Chinese users turn to off-exchange to ease supply tightness

    ByVictoria

    China will import even more off-exchange refined copper this year, according to analysts and traders, as output from the Congo booms and users look to alleviate shortages and head off a potential disruption to supplies of U.S. scrap.

    “The supply of refined copper, including scrap, concentrate, anode and blister, is still tight. We therefore expect higher imports of plentiful refined copper, including EQ copper to partly compensate for this tightness in other raw materials,” Jonathan Barnes, principal analyst at metals research company Project Blue said.
