Newmont's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEM#NYSE">NEM</a>) short percent of float has fallen 4.4% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 20.66 million shares sold short, which is 2.39% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.78 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Newmont has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Newmont's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Newmont's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.91%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Wall Street Rally Extends Into Third Day: What's Driving Markets Thursday?

Newmont Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEM#NYSE">NEM</a>), the world's largest publicly listed gold producer, reported robust first-quarter 2025 earnings following the conclusion of the year-long <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44861734/newmont-completes-a-year-long-portfolio-optimization-process" rel="noreferrer noopener">portfolio optimization effort</a>.
The company posted a net income of $1.9 billion and adjusted EBITDA of $2.6 billion, significantly surpassing the prior year's performance. Adjusted net income was $1.25 per share, aligning with analysts' expectations. Cost-wise, the company saw Gold All-In Sustaining Costs rise to $1,651 per ounce, a 13% increase due to lower production volumes and higher royalty costs.
"Following on from a robust fourth quarter performance, Newmont has delivered 1.5 million attributable gold ounces and generated a record first quarter free cash flow of $1.2 billion, demonstrating the strength of our unrivaled Tier 1 Portfolio," <a target="_blank" href="https://newmont.com/investors/news-release/news-details/2025/Newmont-Reports-First-Quarter-2025-Results/default.aspx" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a> Tom Palmer, Newmont's President and CEO.
Newmont's average realized gold price soared to $2,944 per ounce, driven by favorable market conditions and a $64 per ounce mark-to-market uplift on provisionally priced sales. Attributable gold production fell 19% quarter-to-quarter, reaching 1.54 million ounces, largely due to the divestiture of non-core operations like Musselwhite and Éléonore and planned mine sequencing at Boddington and Tanami.
The year-long portfolio optimization process saw the firm shed non-core assets following a $16.8 billion acquisition of Newcrest. Out of the $4.3 billion divesture program, the company received over $2.5 billion in after-tax proceeds from asset sales finalized in Q1, helping reduce debt by $1 billion and supporting capital returns, including $755 million in share repurchases and a $0.25 dividend.
Despite the drop in production, Newmont reaffirmed its full-year 2025 guidance of 5.9 million ounces of gold, with 52% of output expected in the second half. This seasonal skew is attributed to stronger contributions anticipated from Nevada Gold Mines and Pueblo Viejo, as well as the ramp-up of Ahafo North. Current quarter results, with 24% of expected annual Tier 1 production, align with this outlook.
Addressing a question on the current state of the market, Palmer noted that after completing an ambitious investment program over the last 12 months, the management is focused on delivering quality, irrespective of gold price volatility.
"We've got unit costs that are higher where they should be for a portfolio than the quality of the one we've assembled. So, we are very, very focused on delivering the safety, cost, and productivity performance that this portfolio deserves irrespective of the gold price," he explained.
Price Watch: Newmont is up 38.5% year-to-date. At the time of publication, the stock was up 2.67% in pre-market, trading at $54.57.

Newmont Q1 Adj. EPS $1.25 Beats $0.90 Estimate, Sales $5.01B Beat $4.68B Estimate

Newmont Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEM#NYSE">NEM</a>), the world's largest gold producer, saw a pullback Wednesday following favorable industry conditions and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44933680/gold-miners-surge-50-year-to-date-as-record-bullion-prices-drive-optimism-ahead-of-earnings">record gold prices</a>.
Shares of gold stocks are trading lower as gold prices drop after President Trump said he has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44940900/us-futures-dollar-jump-amid-trumps-latest-comments-on-fed-nikkei-rebounds-to-three-week-high">no intention of firing</a> Fed Chair Powell and indicated the final tariff rate with China would be &#8220;substantially&#8221; lower than the current 145%. These comments could be reducing some macro uncertainty, which recently drove gold to record highs.
What To Know: Gold briefly touched $3,500 per ounce this month, driven by sticky inflation, geopolitical tensions and surging investor demand. 
With gold <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44933680/gold-miners-surge-50-year-to-date-as-record-bullion-prices-drive-optimism-ahead-of-earnings">averaging $2,862 per ounce</a> in the first-quarter 2025 and miners enjoying all-in sustaining costs near $1,400–$1,500, Newmont could report robust margins and strong free cash flow in its upcoming earnings release.
However, the stock has slipped as investor appetite shifts toward higher-growth tech names and Bitcoin, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/04/44958259/bitcoin-reclaims-spotlight-while-gold-loses-luster-the-safe-haven-standoff-continues">which reclaimed $94,000</a> amid renewed "digital gold" enthusiasm.
The pullback could also reflect elevated expectations of late — Newmont, having completed an acquisition of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/asset-sales/24/11/42202141/newmont-sells-mine-for-795-million-barrick-expands-reserves-top-miners-unfazed-by-underperformance">Newcrest Mining in 2023</a>, is under scrutiny to deliver on promised synergies and operational efficiency.

Why Newmont (NEM) Shares Are Trading Lower Today

Risk-on sentiment dominated Wall Street on Wednesday, as upbeat earnings reports and conciliatory messages from the Trump administration h<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets">elped lift investor confidence.</a>
The administration eased market fears on two major fronts that have recently weighed heavily on sentiment. On the trade front, tensions with China appeared to thaw, with reports suggesting the White House is considering reducing tariffs on certain categories of goods.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent added fuel to the rally, stating U.S.-China tariffs are unsustainable and will likely need to be lowered to facilitate meaningful negotiations.
Meanwhile, President Donald Trump offered an abrupt shift in tone toward Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, saying he has no intention to fire him, a remark that helped calm concerns over political interference in monetary policy.
By midday in New York, the S&amp;P 500 was up by nearly 2%, though it had earlier climbed even higher. The Nasdaq 100 outperformed with a 2.5% gain, driven by strength in Magnificent Seven stocks.
Trump's pivot on Powell pushed Treasury yields lower across the curve, with the 30-year yield falling five basis points to 4.83%, after briefly topping 4.90% the previous day.
On the macro front, flash Purchasing Managers&#8217; Index surveys revealed slowing growth momentum in the U.S. economy, as the services sector decelerated sharply following the impact <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44952395/us-business-activity-growth-slows-in-april-as-services-suffer-tariff-shock-markets-rally-as-trade-war-cools">of recent tariff shocks.</a>
The U.S. dollar strengthened, while gold plunged 2.6%, heading for its worst session since November.
Oil prices dropped more than 2% following speculation that OPEC+ may announce a new output hike as early as next month.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) held steady around $93,000.

Stocks Surge On China Tariff Hopes, Tesla Jumps, Gold Loses Shine: What's Driving Markets Wednesday?

Newmont Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEM#NYSE">NEM</a>), the world's largest gold miner, is preparing to report its first-quarter earnings amid a technically bullish setup on Thursday. Wall Street expects $0.55 in EPS and $3.3 billion in revenues as the company reports <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings?tickers=NEM">after market hours</a>.
The stock is up 39.41% over the past year, and 37.28% year to date.
Despite recent weakness in gold prices following President Donald Trump's tariff comments and reaffirmation of support for Fed Chair Jerome Powell, Newmont stock has remained resilient. With shares up over 12% in the past month and nearly 40% over the past year, investors are eyeing both the earnings print and the momentum under the hood.

Newmont recently triggered a Golden Cross, where the 50-day simple moving average of $47.39 overtook the 200-day SMA of $46.87 &#8211; a bullish indicator that often precedes longer-term upside. NEM stock, at $52.24, is well above both those key averages, as well as the 20-day ($50.43) SMAs, signaling sustained upward momentum. This convergence of shorter- and longer-term averages implies growing investor conviction.
Yet, the technical setup isn&#8217;t without nuance. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) sits at 2.27, confirming bullish momentum, but some selling pressure is evident, which could trigger near-term volatility. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) reads 56.95 &#8211; close to overbought territory &#8211; suggesting that while momentum remains intact, traders should stay alert for a potential cool-off after earnings. 
For now, the charts favor the bulls, but the balance could shift quickly on first quarter results.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Newmont Analysts See 11% Upside</h2>
Consensus Ratings &amp; Targets: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NEM/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Wall Street analysts</a> currently rate Newmont stock a Buy, with a consensus price target of $53.40. The latest notes from UBS, Raymond James, and RBC Capital imply an average price target of $58.33 &#8211; suggesting a potential upside of nearly 11% from current levels.

Earnings Scheduled For April 23, 2025

A powerful rally in gold miners is turning heads on Wall Street, with the industry, as broadly tracked by the VanEck Gold Miners ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GDX#NYSE">GDX</a>), up 50% year-to-date through April 22, outperforming nearly every other asset <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/gold">class around the world. </a>
Fueled by gold prices soaring above $3,300 per ounce and robust investor demand, the industry enters first-quarter earnings season with high expectations and bullish momentum.
This week, Newmont Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEM#NYSE">NEM</a>) and Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AEM#NYSE">AEM</a>) will kick off first-quarter 2025 reporting, with analysts anticipating a wave of strong cash flow, operational updates and capital allocation plans.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">What's Driving The Gold Boom?</h3>
According to VanEck portfolio manager Imaru Casanova, a &#8220;perfect storm&#8221; is lifting gold: sticky inflation, rising global debt, escalating geopolitical tensions and growing recession fears.
"Gold thrives amid uncertainty," she said during a VanEck-hosted webinar Tuesday, highlighting the sector&#8217;s leverage to bullion. Gold equities, she added, have delivered "significantly amplified returns" compared to the metal itself.
Casanova noted that gold equities have sharply outperformed bullion, highlighting that the leverage embedded in mining companies gives investors an amplified return profile when gold rises.
With miners' all-in sustaining costs around $1,400 to $1,500 per ounce, today's gold prices north of $3,300 are delivering record margins.
"If we're at $3,000 gold and the costs are $1,500, that's a $1,500 margin per ounce," Casanova said. "That's where the cash flow is."
She also highlighted the rising interest in capital return strategies, such as share buybacks and dividends. "The companies are in great shape. That makes us even more bullish—not just because of the gold price, but because of company fundamentals."
Gold prices are up 42% over the past year and 18% over the past quarter, averaging $2,862 per ounce in the first quarter of 2025. In April, gold has surged another 8.9%, now trading above $3,400.
Monthly gold ETF demand hit a three-year high in April, signaling a potential resurgence of institutional and retail interest.
The VanEck team outlined several structural supports behind the gold rally, including strong demand from central banks, tariff risk and policy uncertainty.
With gold in "uncharted territory," Casanova said, "we could enter a much higher range" that supports even more robust margins and cash flows for miners. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Bullish Q1 Expectations From Wall Street</h3>
Bank of America raised target multiples and price objectives across its North American precious metals coverage this week in response to gold's strength. Analyst Lawson Winder now sees:
<ul>
<li>Newmont at $70 (from $60)</li>
<li>Agnico Eagle Mines at $159 (from $142)</li>
<li>Barrick Gold Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOLD#NYSE">GOLD</a>) at $23 (from $19.50)</li>
<li>Kinross Gold Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KGC#NYSE">KGC</a>) at $17.50 (from $15.00)</li>
</ul>
BofA expects free cash flow across its coverage to total $2.2 billion for the first quarter and $16.2 billion for the full year 2025, assuming gold averages $3,063 per ounce.
With all-in sustaining costs estimated around $1,500 per ounce, the sector is capturing historically wide margins.

Its portfolio includes 17 wholly or majority owned mines and interests in two joint ventures in the Americas, Africa, Australia and Papua New Guinea. The company is expected to sell roughly 5.5 million ounces of gold in 2025 from its core mines after selling six higher-cost, smaller mines, likely effective mid-2025.

Examining the Future: Newmont's Earnings Outlook

Gold surged to fresh all-time highs on Monday, with bullion jumping 2.5% to $3,410 per ounce by 11:20 a.m. ET, as mounting distrust in U.S. financial assets and inflation fears drive a flight to safety unlike anything seen since the global debt crises <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump">of the early 2010s.</a>
Since early March, gold prices — tracked by the SPDR Gold Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE">GLD</a>) — have climbed an astonishing 19.4%, putting the metal on track for its strongest two-month rally since August 2011.
A perfect storm of macro instability, political friction and investor skepticism about the dollar and U.S. Treasuries is fueling the run.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">What's Behind The Gold Boom?</h1>
The root of gold's dramatic resurgence lies in a potent mix of fundamental, structural and behavioral drivers.
The U.S. dollar and long-duration Treasuries — once go-to safe havens — have come under pressure in recent weeks amid President Donald Trump's tariff offensive and his escalating feud with Fed Chair Jerome Powell, raising fears over political interference and eroding confidence in U.S. institutions.
In this climate, gold's reputation as a neutral, time-tested store of value is attracting capital seeking stability.
As a result, traditional hedges have faltered. But gold, immune to sovereign missteps and backed by centuries of store-of-value status, has emerged as a refuge for capital looking for shelter from rising macro uncertainty.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Massive Inflows Into Gold ETFs Confirm Strong Investment Demand</h1>
Investor appetite for gold is clearly visible in the massive inflows into gold-backed exchange-traded funds (ETFs) since mid-January, when Trump made his official return to the White House:

These blockbuster flows signal broad-based institutional and retail demand. According to Goldman Sachs analyst Lina Thomas, the rally is not being fueled by short-term speculators.
"Data suggests the move has occurred without a substantial return of speculative flows," Thomas said. 
"With estimated COMEX speculative positioning still moderate, we view the rally as structurally supported and less exposed to sharp near-term liquidation risk. Thus, we see current levels as a tactically attractive entry point… and believe this reinforces upside risk to our $3,700/toz year-end forecast."
Ed Yardeni, president of Yardeni Research, said the current momentum validates his call from over a year ago. 
"We&#8217;ve been bullish on gold since it broke out above $2,000 per ounce at the end of February 2024. Our $4,000 target by the end of this year looks increasingly realistic. If that happens, then $5,000 would be our target for the end of 2026."
"This situation may come as a crisis for many assets, but for gold, it's a perfect outcome. Inflation fears remain high as the U.S. stock market loses trillions of dollars, and investors are leaning toward physical gold in search of security rather than risky assets like stocks and Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>)," said Rick Kanda, managing director at The Gold Bullion Company, in an email.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Miners Regain Momentum</h1>
The rally is also lifting gold miners, many of which had lagged physical bullion for much of 2024. Now, they're catching up. "Gold has surged to new all-time highs above $3,000/ounce, driven by renewed flows into gold-backed ETFs and continued strong demand from global central banks," VanEck said Monday.
"At the same time, gold miners are beginning to regain leverage to gold prices, emerging as some of the best-performing stocks so far this year."
The VanEck Gold Miners ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GDX#NYSE">GDX</a>) is up nearly 52% year-to-date, eyeing the strongest annual gain since the fund&#8217;s inception in 2007.
In response to the metal's powerful rally, Bank of America on Monday raised price targets across its North American gold and silver coverage. 
The move comes just ahead of first-quarter earnings season in the precious metals sector, which begins April 23 with Newmont Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEM#NYSE">NEM</a>) and continues with Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AEM#NYSE">AEM</a>) on April 24.

Gold Price Soars To Record Highs, Eyes Best 2-Month Rally Since 2011 On Blockbuster ETF Buying

Shares of gold stocks are trading higher after gold prices reached an all-time high.

Stock market expert Jon Erlichman recently shared a review of stock returns during the last six U.S. recessions, highlighting those that have performed well in difficult times.
In a video <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27Lm9FH-c70">post</a> and also on X, Erlichman shared his analysis of stock returns during the past six recessions in the U.S.
&#8220;The Great Recession, which was longer from 2007 to 2009. We added in the dot-com recession, the recession in the early 90s, and the recessions in the early 80s. So you look at that, you start to get a better sample size,&#8221; he said. 
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter">

In alphabetical order, he mentioned about stock number one, AutoZone (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AZO#NYSE">AZO</a>). He said that AutoZone is a great example of a stock that has done well during past recessions. Stock number two was Clorox (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLX#NYSE">CLX</a>). He said that Clorox is a great example of a stock that did well during the last recession.

The other recession proof stocks he suggested were, General Mills (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GIS#NYSE">GIS</a>), IBM (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBM#NYSE">IBM</a>), Johnson &amp; Johnson (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JNJ#NYSE">JNJ</a>), J.M.

&#8220;And if you go back through all these six recessions, this is the stock that really stands out as a recession-proof stock. Now, of course, we&#8217;ve got the tariff uncertainty right now. That&#8217;s not great for retailers, but Walmart executives have already come out,&#8221; he said in the post. 
The analysis shared by Erlichman is particularly relevant in the current economic climate. With ongoing market volatility and uncertainty, investors are constantly on the lookout for stocks that can weather economic downturns. 
Erlichman&#8217;s review offers a historical perspective on stocks that have demonstrated resilience in the face of recessions, potentially guiding investors towards more stable investment options during turbulent times.
