GDX, monthly 


Summary

The collective of miners climbed for a second consecutive month. I would note the 10MA at $37.31, which was settled above, as the s/t trend is bullish.

Four of the key miners...

Newmont (NEM)


Newmont saw a February high of $48.23, if cooling back to settle +$0.12 (0.3%) to $42.84. I would note the monthly 10MA at $44.71, which was settled beneath. Monthly momentum ticked lower for a fifth month, but is leveling out.

Barrick Gold (GOLD)


Barrick saw a net February gain of +$1.47 (9.0%) to $17.75. Momentum ticked a little higher, and is fractionally positive. After some drama, the company and CEO Bristow have reached an agreement with the Mali regime.

First Majestic Silver (AG) 

First Majestic Silver saw a net February decline of -$0.32 (5.7%) to $5.37, on record vol' of 389M. Vol' was skewed due to the recently finalised merger with Gatos Silver. Momentum ticked a little lower, if remaining marginally positive.

Pan American Silver (PAAS)


Pan American Silver saw a net February gain of +$0.62 (2.7%) to $23.83, on marginally higher vol' of 63M. Momentum remains on the moderately high side.

Of the four, yours truly favours Newmont, which has less of a copper component than Barrick.
