Some analysts highlight its strategic position and tier-1 assets, mentioning the company's strong balance sheet and growing copper exposure as advantageous. However, there are concerns regarding the impact of leadership changes, potential production growth limitations, and operational challenges, especially in regions like Mali.

BUY
Largest gold company globally. Under performed for a long time due to hedges but these were removed recently and thinks it could get value to a higher multiple. Should do very well if gold remained strong.
COMMENT
Brought in the majority of their hedge book on gold production. Raised over $4 billion to do so and are much more exposed to gold prices. If you want a pure play in gold, he would suggest GoldCorp (G-T), Kinross (K-T) or Yamana (YRI-T).
COMMENT
Canadian stocks have lagged gold because gold is priced in US$'s. Since Cdn$ has appreciated against US$, gold price movement has not been that much for them. Right now commodity is leading stocks so there is some potential for them to catch up.
COMMENT
No longer has hedges so looks much different now. Expecting big gold stocks willbe on the acquisition trail as it will be very difficult to keep the reserves up and this is a challenge for companies like this, GoldCorp (G-T) and all large golds. Look for smaller golds that have a resource that could be coming on anytime soon.
BUY
Everybody is jumping on the gold bandwagon. Best way to play gold is to buy a low-cost producer with low price to cash flow. This one has a lot of upside with one of the cheaper multiples of all the peers.
BUY
Removed all their hedges and the stock moved up. Based on a point-figure reading the stock is probably heading towards $50 possibly. To be on the safe side, your stoploss should be at around the $35-$36 level.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Would buy on weakness. Low $30's would be really nice.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 2/08. Up 17.6%.)
DON'T BUY
We are in the gold buying season, but it is a well know fact and you have to look for less widely known facts. Is their best among the group but they would not run out and buy gold. Would rather be in stocks than gold.
WATCH
Doesn't know if they have done anything yet to cover their hedge book but will probably know in Q3 when they come out with their results. Reporting on the 29th and he is hoping the full information will be available.
BUY
Recently did a very large equity issue and are now taking off all their hedges so expects it will be re-valued upwards.
BUY
Likes what they did with the hedge book. They may start to get more respect soon. Added it as a core position.
BUY
Have pretty much bought out their hedge book so their leverage to gold is a lot higher than what it was. Likes gold as a hedge to the financial markets.
BUY
Favourite gold recently was Iamgold (IMG-T) but recently has been a lot of speculation that Newmont (NMC-T) was going to buy it so it got expensive. This company raised $4 billion to clear their heads book, which had always harmed valuations. Unhedged there is potential for a marginally higher valuation. (Pair Traded with a Short on Newmont (NMC-T).)
BUY
Has some real upside, particularly now that the hedges are gone.
