Renowned economist Peter Schiff advised investors to buy gold dips amid concerns over potential inflation following Donald Trump&#8216;s presidential election victory over Kamala Harris.
What Happened: &#8220;The best Trump trade now is buying the dip in gold and gold mining stocks,&#8221; Schiff posted on X. &#8220;Cutting taxes is easy. We know from experience that substantive spending cuts are impossible. Even Reagan couldn&#8217;t do it, despite making greater promises to do so. Trump will make inflation great again.&#8221;
Trump secured 277 electoral votes and 51% of the popular vote against Harris, according to Associated Press figures. 
Major gold mining stocks, including Barrick Gold (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOLD#NYSE">GOLD</a>), Newmont (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEM#NYSE">NEM</a>), and Royal Gold (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RGLD#NASDAQ">RGLD</a>), declined over 2% on Wednesday, while gold spot prices traded at $2,656, down 0.09%.

Newmont Unusual Options Activity For November 05

Leading gold miner Newmont (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEM#NYSE">NEM</a>) has applied to extend the permit for its Cadia operation, Australia's <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/mining" rel="noreferrer noopener">largest underground mine</a>, until 2050.
Located near Orange in New South Wales (NSW), Cadia plays a significant role in Newmont's portfolio and the Australian mining sector. It produces nearly 600,000 ounces of gold and a large share of the country's copper.
Per <a target="_blank" href="https://www.centralwesterndaily.com.au/story/8806996/newmonts-cadia-mine-expansion-plans-to-2050/" rel="noreferrer noopener">Central Western Daily</a>, extending Cadia's operations would generate significant regional benefits, providing over 2,100 full-time jobs and helping hundreds of regional suppliers. The mine's economic contribution is substantial, as the company spends around $135 million annually on employee salaries.
"The extension of Cadia's operations would be a tangible boost for responsible mining that contributes to global net zero goals, local jobs, and economic growth," said Suzy Retallack, Newmont's Chief Sustainability Officer.

The NSW Department of Planning, Housing, and Infrastructure will assess the application submitted under the federal Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act on behalf of the federal government.
Already deemed a state-significant project, Cadia's extension aligns with state and federal priorities for regional economic stability.
The mine recently earned recognition for sustainable production, receiving the Copper Mark and the Molybdenum Mark.
"Our global customers can now choose to source copper concentrate from an independently evaluated mine that meets the highest standards in environmental, social, and governance practices, responding to the increasing demand for sustainable supply chains," Retallack <a target="_blank" href="https://newmont.com/investors/news-release/news-details/2024/Newmont-Cadia-Awarded-The-Copper-Mark-and-The-Molybdenum-Mark/default.aspx" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a> in an announcement.
Cadia is currently Australia's only operating source of molybdenum, a critical mineral used to strengthen steel without adding excessive weight. The $85 million processing plant can produce around 4.1 million pounds annually.
Newmont's commitment to Cadia reflects its strategic focus on Tier 1 assets. After the industry-shaking merger with Newcrest (whose flagship asset was Cadia), CEO Tom Palmer announced the company would <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/02/37287732/gold-miner-newmont-looks-to-sell-assets-reduce-8b-debt-load" rel="noreferrer noopener">divest from non-strategic operations</a>.
A recent sale of the Akyem operation in Ghana to Zijin Mining is expected to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41246715/newmont-strikes-1b-deal-for-akyem-sale-focus-sharpens-on-tier-1-assets" rel="noreferrer noopener">generate approximately $1 billion</a>, helping reduce debt and support core asset capital expenditures.
Newmont's stock is 14.74% up year-to-date, significantly lagging gold &#8211; one of the best assets of the year. SPDR Gold Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE">GLD</a>) is up 34% year-to-date.

UBS Downgrades Newmont to Neutral, Lowers Price Target to $54

Renowned economist Peter Schiff questioned the soaring market capitalization of Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) proxy company MicroStrategy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) compared to gold mining companies.
What Happened: In a recent X post, Schiff pointed out that MicroStrategy, despite not earning or producing much, has a market valuation exceeding all gold mining companies except for Newmont Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEM#NYSE">NEM</a>), the largest in the sector. 
Schiff even initiated an X poll, asking his followers if MicroStrategy&#8217;s market cap will eventually surpass Newmont&#8217;s. As things turned out, more than 83% voted in favor of such an outcome.

As of this writing, MicroStrategy has a market cap of $47.764 billion, narrowly trailing Newmont, which was valued at $54.42 billion. Since the beginning of the year, shares of MicroStrategy have popped an impressive 276.9%, while the gold-mining company has grown by 16.84% year-to-date.
The short-term performance also favors the Bitcoin development company, which jumped 53% over the month compared to Newmont, which fell 10.57% during the same period.
Comparing the technical indicators of the two stocks, all of MicroStrategy&#8217;s moving averages flashed a &#8216;Buy&#8217; signal, while the momentum indicator Moving Average Convergence Divergence, which compares an asset&#8217;s long-term performance versus short-term, was also bullish, <a href="https://in.tradingview.com/symbols/NASDAQ-MSTR/technicals/">according</a> to TradingView. 
On the other hand, Newmont&#8217;s moving averages all <a href="https://in.tradingview.com/symbols/NYSE-NEM/technicals/">indicated </a>a &#8216;Sell&#8217; signal, implying a bearish condition.

Why It Matters: This wasn&#8217;t the first time Schiff has expressed skepticism towards MicroStrategy.

Powered by the Bitcoin strategy, MicroStrategy under Michael Saylor has outperformed many top players on Wall Street. With year-to-date gains of 272%, it netted <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/10/41567772/ahead-of-mag-7-earnings-season-michael-saylor-celebrates-bitcoin-proxy-microstrategys-reco">higher returns this year</a> than the &#8220;Magnificent 7&#8221; companies

Gold is a stable investment now due to its role as a safe-haven asset during economic uncertainty, rising demand, industrial use, and growth, bolstered by central bank purchases and interest rate cuts. Therefore, investors should consider investing in top gold stocks such as Newmont (NEM), Barrick Gold (GOLD), and Agnico Eagle Mines (AEM). Read more... Gold has long been considered a reliable store of value during times of economic uncertainty, such as geopolitical tensions or inflation. As a safe-haven asset, it often performs well alongside the U.S. dollar, offering protection from market volatility.
To take advantage of this trend, investing in strong gold stocks like Newmont Corporation (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/NEM/">NEM</a>), Barrick Gold Corporation (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/GOLD/">GOLD</a>), and Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/AEM/">AEM</a>) can be a smart strategy as demand for safe-haven assets rises.
Unlike other assets that generate returns through interest rates or dividends, gold's value remains independent of these factors, making it particularly appealing during uncertain times when other investments may face volatility. Beyond its financial value, gold holds cultural significance and is used in various industries, including electronics, healthcare, semiconductors, and space exploration.
This year, gold has reached multiple all-time highs, and according to Goldman Sachs Research, it is expected to rise even further. With central banks in emerging markets increasing their gold purchases, the precious metal is forecasted to reach <a href="https://www.goldmansachs.com/insights/articles/gold-predicted-to-climb-higher-than-expected-as-records-shatter">$3,000 per troy ounce</a> by the end of 2025.
Furthermore, macro uncertainties are driving up demand for gold as a hedge against instability. With the Fed expected to <a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/us/tight-credit-conditions-add-case-fed-interest-rate-cut-2024-11-06/">cut interest rates</a> on November 7, 2024, due to declining inflation, cooling labor markets, and tight credit conditions, investors are flocking to gold to preserve wealth. Moreover, continued buying during price corrections further strengthens market stability.
Considering these conducive trends, let's analyze the fundamental aspects of the three <a href="https://stocknews.com/category/gold-miners/">Miners - Gold</a> picks, beginning with the third choice.
Stock #3: Newmont Corporation (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/NEM/">NEM</a>)
NEM engages in the production and exploration of gold. It also explores for copper, silver, zinc, and lead. The company has operations and/or assets in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Dominican Republic, Peru, Suriname, Argentina, Chile, Australia, Papua New Guinea, Ecuador, Fiji, and Ghana.
On October 29, 2024, NEM commissioned its first battery-electric large mining truck, the Cat 793 XE, at its Cripple Creek and Victor mine, advancing its commitment to sustainable mining and emissions reduction.
On October 15, 2024, NEM and MKS PAMP launched a traceable 1oz Lady of Liberty gold bar, exclusively using Newmont-mined gold and refined by MKS PAMP in Switzerland. This initiative provides transparency and assures consumers of the gold's origin through Provenance technology.
In terms of the trailing-12-month <a href="https://www.investopedia.com/terms/g/gross_profit_margin.asp">gross profit margin</a>, NEM's 38.58% is 34.9% higher than the 28.59% industry average. Likewise, its 35.37% trailing-12-month EBITDA margin is 115.7% higher than the 16.40% industry average. Also, its 6.05% trailing-12-month Return on Total Capital is 23.1% higher than the 4.91% industry average.
NEM's sales for the fiscal third quarter ended September 30, 2024, rose 84.7% year-over-year to $4.61 billion. Its adjusted EBITDA increased 110.8% over the prior-year quarter to $1.97 billion. Also, the company's adjusted net income and adjusted net income per common share attributable to NEM's stockholders were $936 million and $0.81, reflecting increases of 227.3% and 125% year-over-year, respectively.
Analysts expect NEM's EPS and revenue for the quarter ending December 31, 2024, to increase 115.9% and 29.8% year-over-year to $1.08 and $5.14 billion, respectively. It surpassed the consensus EPS estimates in each of the trailing four quarters. Over the past nine months, NEM's stock has gained 32.2% to close the last trading session at $44.08.
NEM's promising outlook is reflected in its <a href="https://stocknews.com/powr-ratings/">POWR Ratings</a>. The POWR Ratings assess stocks by 118 different factors, each with its own weighting.
It has a B grade for Growth. Within the B-rated <a href="https://stocknews.com/category/gold-miners/">Miners - Gold</a> industry, it is ranked #26 out of 42 stocks.
