Barrick Mining (ABX-T) has garnered mixed reviews from experts, with some bullish on the gold sector and the company's positioning within it. Analysts highlight its potential as a safe haven during periods of economic uncertainty, particularly with ongoing geopolitical tensions. However, concerns regarding the production growth and valuation compared to peers are prevalent, with some suggesting that Barrick's recent rise is more reflective of increasing gold prices rather than its operational efficacy. Additionally, challenges in specific regions, such as Mali and rising operational costs in Nevada, introduce uncertainties around the company’s future performance. Overall, while it holds strategic assets and a solid dividend yield, the stock’s growth potential remains debated among analysts.

Valuation

Agnico, AEM

DON'T BUY

His view on gold stocks is that there are three kinds of stocks. The large caps have a difficult time growing; the small caps are too risky and then there are the mid-tiers. The latter are the most attractive and more so are any that are about to become a mid-tier. He prefers EQX-X. Management has an impressive track record.

DON'T BUY

Doesn't like it. It will move higher and people will buy it, but over five years Agnico has outperformed and he prefers the latter.

COMMENT

One of the largest gold miners in the world. They are able to do deals when the gold price is high and have trouble with the gold price is low.

HOLD

Gold is not expensive. Barrick increased its dividend and he likes their management. The Chinese Central bank has been steadily building gold inventory. They want to move their reserves up to the likes of the US, Germany, etc. No major reserves are being discovered, so eventually prices will rise. Gold prices today will start some exploration across the sector. Gold prices could find resistance around $1719 /oz. Seasonally, gold prices usually rise from after US Thanksgiving into the spring.

TOP PICK

He likes gold stocks and Barrick is one of the cheaper senior ones. (Analysts’ price target is $26.80)

COMMENT

Gold? He is not a gold specialist, but it is an area driven by lower interest rates. He thinks we are entering a new phase for gold, where gold is standing out as a safe holding again. He likes ABX-T and FNV-T in this space.

BUY

Gold: buy micro-caps? It has seriously broken through $1,400. He plays it by owning Barrick, one of the best large-caps with good managers, and ROXG for its Burkino Faso mine. The micro-caps are too small for him; he prefers large-caps because they're more predictable. Barrick is his go-to gold stock.

TOP PICK

In gold's last run up to $1300, Barrick ran up quite a bit higher than the price to book valuation. So the stock "owes us" some valuation, because it has some catch up to do. Yield is 0.90%. (Analysts’ price target is $22.71)

TOP PICK

Great place to be, especially if the Fed cuts rates. Gold stocks are still at multi-year lows. The charts look beautiful. A place where you can make some money. You have to watch it, put a stop on it. Yield is 0.98%. (Analysts’ price target is $20.92)

BUY

Likes all the golds, juniors and seniors. Juniors are the place to be.

COMMENT

Feels as though there's a buzz around gold. Momentum's coming back into the sector. Agnico is executing well, but it's expensive. His main holding is in Barrick. If you do get a move, it should go first and you should easily get a pop in it.

WAIT

You want to have a good gold price for it to do well. We saw a decline in 2017. We saw it falter at the beginning of this year. Seasonality will start July/August.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

They are cutting the costs out of an acquisition. They don’t need the duplication. There are synergies to be realized. The market looks interesting but he has not bought in the sector yet. He would look at this quality of company.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jun 04/18, Up 3%) He likes the gold stocks because you should always hold 10-20% in gold. Bullion is dirt cheap. He worries about the quality of balance sheets around the world and sees it as a safe haven.

DON'T BUY

The gold industry gets a lot of attention but just isn't important, not anymore in Canada. These companies have shrunk a lot, and ABX's stock chart has declined like its peers. Yet, the gold biz still gets a lot of attention. He own no gold at all. Gold doesn't pay dividends. Gold is purely speculative.
