The global economy is facing major challenges as the outbreak of the current corona virus disrupts supply chains in manufacturing and causes a collapse in demand for many products and services. Stock market professionals are reminded of 2008, when the US bank Lehman Brothers went bankrupt in the context of the subprime crisis and Hypo Real Estate in Germany had to be state-owned in order to avert the total collapse of the global economy.

    The opportunity of gold stocks in 2020

    In 2008, when investors around the world panicked and sent stock markets into a downward spiral, they also temporarily pulled out of gold company stocks. As a result, the share prices of the major gold companies also went into decline. Compared to other industries, however, share prices of the well-known companies working with gold recovered quickly. In 2020 everything is a little different, as the value of most gold companies has been trading at a low level for several years.

    The price of the precious metal increased

    In connection with the current corona crisis, there has so far been no significant price capers among the large gold companies. The price of a troy ounce of gold has risen since last summer from under USD 1,300.00 by more than 30% to now almost USD 1,700.00. Based on this situation, it can be assumed that shares of gold companies will be able to continue to trade at a stable price of the precious metal. The large companies such as Kinross Gold with a market value of CAD 9.3 billion and Yamana Gold with a market value of CAD 5.4 billion are much demanded by investors.

    Triumph Gold as takeover target

    Investors wishing to enter the market at an earlier stage of value creation usually invest in exploration companies. The Canadian company Triumph Gold explores and develops its own properties in the Yukon. The company already has Newmont on board as a major shareholder with a 9% stake. The exit strategy of investors in Explorer is usually a takeover by a producer - as soon as enough data on gold reserves is available. Triumph Gold's share price is still at a low level, but this also represents an opportunity. The company's most recent market value was CAD 19.0 million.

    Precious metals are back in the spotlight, and three stocks in particular show how differently investors can profit from this trend. Kobo Resources is an up-and-coming gold explorer from Canada that is gradually building up an impressive gold deposit in West Africa. Barrick Mining is one of the industry's giants, but is currently struggling with strategic decisions and a decline in production. First Majestic Silver made a remarkable turnaround in 2025 and is ringing investors' cash registers. Three companies, three stories, but all united by one trend: rising metal prices are fueling the imagination. Those who do not take a look now could miss out on a real opportunity.

    Reserves at their limit: Why Newmont and Barrick Mining depend on developers such as Lahontan Gold

    The price of gold is hitting new highs, driven by global debt of over USD 340 trillion and the devaluation of fiat currencies. Analysts at JPMorgan forecast an average gold price of USD 5,055 per ounce by the end of 2026. In this market environment, gold mine operators are seeing revenue and EBITDA growth. Nevertheless, producers face a massive problem: they are extracting the precious metal faster than they can discover new deposits. The procurement of new resources in reliable jurisdictions has become a matter of operational survival for players in industry. We present a promising stock that aims to make great strides in 2026.

    Gold stock set to MULTIPLY? Could Desert Gold outshine Barrick Mining, B2Gold, and others?

    While the price of gold remains above USD 5,000 per troy ounce, one country is staging a spectacular comeback. After two years of negative headlines, the government appears to be reassessing its approach and is seeking renewed cooperation with gold companies. The West African country will remain strategically important in the future, not just for Barrick Mining and B2Gold. As a result, gold companies operating there are likely to see a stock market resurgence. Desert Gold clearly stands out as a potential outperformer, with its Mali activities currently barely reflected in the stock price. Analysts see potential for substantial gains.
