GDX, monthly 

 

Summary

The collective of miners broke a new historic high of $77.18. I would note the 10MA at $50.15, which was settled above, as the m/t trend remains extremely bullish. Monthly RSI 84s... the most ever overbought.

Four of the key miners...

Agnico Eagle Mines (AEM)

 

Agnico printed a new hist' high of $169.38, with a September gain of +$24.79 (17.2%) to $168.56. Monthly momentum ticked upward, and is on the very high side. Vol' picked up to 72.9M.

Newmont (NEM) 

 

Newmont printed a new hist' high of $87.93, with a September gain of +$10.16 (13.7%) to $84.31. I would note the monthly 10MA at $55.22, which was settled above. Monthly momentum ticked upward for a seventh month. Vol' increased to 263M

Sept'29th saw news that CEO Palmer will leave (as of Dec'31st 2025). 
--

Barrick Mining (B)

 

Barrick saw a net September gain of +$6.14 (23.1%) to $32.77, the highest monthly settlement since September 2012. Momentum is on the very high side. Vol' picked up to 587M.

Sept'29th saw CEO Bristow leave (with immediate effect)... for reasons unknown. I don't see this as a mid/long term issue for Barrick, not least if Gold/silver/copper continue to broadly climb.

Pan American Silver (PAAS)

 

Pan American Silver broke a new historic high of $39.60, for a net September gain of +$4.81 (14.2%) to $38.73, on record vol' of 162M. Momentum ticked upward, and is on the high side.
--

Of the four, yours truly favours Agnico Eagle Mines, which has been the sector leader for over a year. The only s/t concern is if the broader equity market sees a correction, the miners would likely struggle... even if gold and/or silver continue to climb.
