Precious Metals Gleam Through Market Chaos

Gold and silver mining companies emerged as exceptional performers during Tuesday’s volatile trading session, Robert Sinn of Goldfinger Capital writers in a market update.

Markets have experienced tremendous turbulence in recent weeks. For equities, this journey has predominantly trended downward, nearly resembling a precipitous collapse for stocks such as COIN and TSLA.

This morning, I had the chance to converse with Trevor Hall from Mining Stock Daily regarding the market upheaval. Our discussion covered various subjects, including waning consumer sentiment, the pushback of the financial markets against Trump 2.0′s trade policies, and economic rhetoric.

I also highlighted that the fashionable investments at the year’s outset, specifically COIN, MSTR, and TSLA, have delivered disappointing results year-to-date. Conversely, gold mining companies — arguably the most unpopular equity sector on January 1 — have generated gains exceeding 20% thus far in 2025.

Notably, Barrick Gold Corp. (ABX:TSX; GOLD:NYSE) faced intense investor antipathy entering 2025. A history of underwhelming performance that failed to keep pace with gold’s price appreciation disillusioned investors in the second-largest gold producer. Furthermore, territorial challenges with Barrick’s Mali operations drove investor confidence to unprecedented lows.

This overwhelming pessimism has created what might be a once-in-a-generation investment opportunity in Barrick shares; the company maintains a robust financial position with potentially the most promising production expansion pipeline among major gold producers. Barrick is additionally making significant copper investments through its Reko Diq Project in Pakistan, the Zaldivar Mine in Chile, and an extensive exploratory staking initiative in Idaho, which Barrick has labeled The Idaho Porphyry Belt.

Despite generating substantial free cash flow in recent quarters, gold mining enterprises remain significantly underinvested and undervalued by mainstream investors. With extraordinary strength in gold prices throughout Q1 2025, the sector appears positioned to deliver another round of exceptional results when mining companies begin announcing Q1 earnings in early May.

With Westwood transitioning to positive free cash flow, Essakane continuing as a revenue powerhouse, and Cote Gold scheduled to reach full operational capacity later this year, IAMGOLD Corp. (IMG:TSX; IAG:NYSE) is positioned for a robust 2025 with total attributable production approaching ~800,000 gold ounces.

CIBC maintains an outperform rating for IAG with a price target of US$7.60 per share.
