GOLD RALLY BEGINS! Gold Surpasses USD 4,300! Barrick Mining +16%! Time to Buy First Majestic Silver, Agnico Eagle, and Lahontan Gold?
What a week for gold. Following modest jobs data, fears over interest rates in the US eased noticeably on Friday. This, in turn, fueled the gold price. It rose by USD 100 and ended the week above the USD 4,300 mark. Experts are also bullish. Markus Bußler believes the time has come to take positions in gold and silver producers. For him, it doesn't always have to be Barrick Mining. The investor favourite's shares surged by around 16% last week, while Agnico Eagle gained as much as 22%. Capital markets expert Markus Koch also established a gold position last week and intends to hold it for the longer term. Lahontan Gold delivered positive drilling results. The company's timing could hardly be better, as the new gold rally arrives at exactly the right moment. The company plans to begin gold production next year in the US state of Nevada.

Gold Stocks in the Spotlight: Kinross Gold, Lahontan Gold, and AngloGold Ashanti
The price of gold cannot quite make up its mind. When the Federal Reserve left interest rates unchanged last week, the price per ounce did rise sharply. However, the price has so far been unable to break away from the USD 4,000 mark. A significant portion of the market still expects the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates later this year in response to inflation; however, just as many doubt that this will happen before the key elections in November. On top of that, President Trump continues to call for lower interest rates. For gold prices, this is an unsatisfactory situation in the short term. However, investors focusing on structural market trends should take advantage of the correction in gold stocks. That is why we are taking a look today at Kinross Gold, Lahontan Gold, and AngloGold Ashanti!

Eldorado Gold, Lahontan Gold, Alamos Gold: Investors Face a Once-in-a-Century Opportunity
After its impressive rally, the price of gold is taking a breather. Profit-taking, a stronger US dollar, and hopes for a less expansionary monetary policy are creating short-term headwinds. However, the long-term drivers of the price have hardly changed. High government debt, ongoing geopolitical tensions, heavy buying by central banks, and the prospect of falling real interest rates continue to support the precious metal. It is precisely such periods of consolidation that have often opened up attractive entry opportunities in the past, particularly for promising gold companies with upcoming catalysts.

Gold Sector Remains Optimistic: How Kinross Gold and Orla Mining Are Securing the Future—and Lahontan Gold's Hidden Ace
"Gold. Power. Greed." That was the title of a recent documentary aired by German broadcaster ZDF, exploring the enduring appeal of the precious metal. Investors seeking returns from precious metals often turn their attention first to giants such as Barrick Mining and other major producers. Yet while new discoveries may have only a limited impact on the share prices of established mining companies, positive exploration results can drive a very different level of momentum among smaller players. Agile exploration companies that can supply the processing plants of major producers—thanks to fresh capital, prime locations, and manageable costs—promise dynamic upside potential, as recently highlighted in the ZDF documentary. We introduce three exciting companies and highlight where investors can expect strong momentum.

China Is Buying Gold—Even More Than Expected? Barrick Mining, Newmont, and Lahontan Gold Stand to Benefit
While the price of gold holds steady above the USD 4,000 mark, China is buying heavily. According to the Chinese central bank, China purchased 15 metric tons of gold in June alone. This is the highest volume since October 2023. Furthermore, the market has long suspected that China's actual gold purchases are significantly higher than the officially reported amounts. This could mean gold is on the verge of a new rally. For investors looking to profit from a long-term rise in the price of gold, Barrick Mining and Newmont are considered core investments in the gold sector. They offer relatively direct exposure to the price of gold. Rising selling prices can have a disproportionately large impact on cash flow and profits when production costs remain stable. At the same time, operational risks, cost increases, and political uncertainties persist in individual mining countries. Exploration companies are a good option for adding to a portfolio to gain additional exposure to the price of gold.

Do Not Miss Gold's Next Rally: Why Newmont, Desert Gold and Agnico Eagle Deserve a Closer Look
Investors are watching the yellow precious metal closely; its price has recently come under pressure but has stabilized above USD 4,000. The fundamental conditions for further price increases remain intact. Central banks continue to prefer buying gold over the US dollar; geopolitical turmoil is driving demand for safe-haven assets; and the prospect of falling key interest rates is traditionally good for gold prices. At the same time, robust physical demand coupled with stagnant production is leading to a supply shortage. This environment is fostering positive sentiment, particularly among producers. A look at the current situation at Newmont, Desert Gold, and Agnico Eagle reveals which companies could benefit most from this tailwind.
