Steyr Motors appears to be delivering what shareholders were hoping for. Following the rapid rise in its share price this year, the Austrian company has now reported new orders. This could enable the Company to grow into its ambitious valuation. Gold explorer Sranan Gold is still attractively valued. The important drilling program will start soon. Is this also the starting signal for a rally in the share price? There is currently no talk of a rally at BYD. The Chinese company is facing challenges both in its domestic market and in Europe. In Europe, sales figures are falling short of expectations. Can new personnel and a revamped sales strategy bring about a turnaround?

    Sranan Gold: Newcomer starts drilling program

    Another insider tip is the Sranan Gold share. The Company specializes in mineral exploration and the acquisition of mineral properties in Suriname. The current focus is on the promising 29,000-hectare Tapanahony project. A small "gold rush" has broken out in the region.

    Sranan is currently working on the launch of a drilling campaign on the Tapanahony project. The geological, logistical, and technical teams are already on site. The construction of the necessary infrastructure, such as core logging and storage facilities, is nearing completion. Two new drilling rigs and the necessary accessories have arrived so that the first drilling can begin in the target area, Randy's Pit. To start with, drilling sites for up to 6,000 meters have already been selected there.

    Drilling on the north side of the Tapanahony River will also take place in the future, once additional investigations such as trenching and mapping have been completed.

    The stock is still inexpensive and could have upside potential with positive interim reports from the drilling program.

    Steyr Motors delivers

    After Steyr Motors' shares rallied spectacularly in the current year, expectations for revenue and profit growth are high.

    However, the Company appears well-positioned to meet these expectations. The manufacturer of special-purpose engines has announced another million-euro order and concluded extensive framework agreements for both civil and military marine applications. Multi-year supply contracts for more than 600 inboard diesel engines, with a total value exceeding EUR 20 million, have been signed with partners in the UK, Italy, France, and China. The robust, powerful, and compact diesel engines are ideal for demanding marine applications. As a result, further orders in the marine sector are expected in the coming months.

    CEO Julian Cassutti commented: "Our engines are built to deliver the highest performance and uncompromising reliability under extreme conditions, both on land and at sea. The new contracts demonstrate our technological excellence and the trust we have earned in both the land and marine sectors for civil and military applications."

    Steyr Motors' share price appears to have completed its consolidation and has gained around 15% in the past two weeks. The share price has risen by an impressive 314% since the beginning of the year.

    BYD: Many areas in need of improvement

    BYD currently has several areas in need of improvement. In China, the Company is struggling with overcapacity and price wars. And in Europe, sales are not picking up as quickly as the managers, who are accustomed to success, would like. BYD aimed initially to achieve a 5% market share for electric vehicles by 2024. But in the end, it sold only 57,000 vehicles, giving it a market share of 2.8%. Analysts such as S&P Global Mobility are forecasting sales of around 186,000 vehicles across Europe for the current year. However, this is still below previous targets.

    BYD is adjusting its strategy and now offers more plug-in hybrid models, particularly in the south and east. In addition, the European management team has been replaced, and the Reuters news agency has reported on the expansion of the dealer network. In the short term, these measures are unlikely to achieve much. Patience is needed.


    Given the problems in its home market and abroad, there is currently no compelling reason to buy BYD shares. Sranan Gold's stock currently appears promising. If the news flow surrounding the drilling program is positive, significantly higher prices are possible. Steyr's stock has already anticipated some positive operational developments. However, the Company also appears to be delivering on the operational front.

    Since 2019, Barrick Mining has invested about USD 5.3 billion in Tanzania's economy, according to its own figures, and it extended the licences for the North Mara gold mine by 15 years in early October. This provides planning certainty. Smaller companies also have big plans. Lahontan Gold agreed to acquire Emergent Metals in mid-September and is targeting a 2027 restart of the Santa Fe mine in Nevada. If it succeeds, the high gold price works in the company's favour. Agnico Eagle shows that major producers are also interested in emerging companies. We therefore take a closer look at Barrick Mining, Lahontan Gold and Agnico Eagle.

    Gold at a Higher Low? Aya Gold & Silver, Phenom Resources and Perseus Mining in Focus

    • Phenom Resources
    • Aya Gold & Silver
    • Perseus Mining
    • Gold

    Gold has become particularly interesting from a technical analysis perspective in recent days. The precious metal has stabilised above USD 4,125 per ounce, despite briefly dipping below that level. The July low was approximately USD 150 lower. If the bottoming process that has been underway for several days succeeds, gold will have established a higher low. This is seen as extremely positive from a technical analysis perspective. That would take the July low out of focus for now, and markets could look north again. The next resistance level in that direction is still a long way off. Of course, the broader environment also needs to be supportive. Interest rate concerns remain acute. Professionals expect three interest rate increases by the Federal Reserve after the midterm elections in early November. In addition, earnings season begins this week – traditionally with the financial statements of the major investment banks. For gold investors, the intriguing question remains whether gold can function as a safe haven again. The Poles, the Chinese and others are certainly using current prices to replenish their central banks' holdings. We, in turn, look at the shares of Aya Gold & Silver, Phenom Resources and Perseus Mining.
