Newmont (NEM), the world's largest gold producer following its Newcrest acquisition [1], has seen its stock price surge due to rallying gold prices driven by safe-haven demand amidst trade tensions and market uncertainty [2], [3], [5], [6], [7]. The company is divesting non-core assets [1] and is expected to generate $2.5 billion from these sales in 2025 [3], potentially funding share buybacks [3]. Analysts are bullish on NEM, with upward revisions to earnings estimates and price targets, projecting further gains [1], [3], [6], [8], [9], [10]. Despite strong financials and a stable dividend policy [1], concerns remain about operational costs [3], and one director sold a portion of their shares [11]. While the outlook is generally positive, these cost concerns and market volatility present potential risks.
