Stockchase Insights Agnico-Eagle Mines AEM-T BUY Feb 14, 2025

Largest holding in portfolio. Share price has doubled the past year. Expecting gold prices to keep rising with geopolitical tensions. Large amounts of gold being held by central banks instead of US dollar. 

One of his go-to names in the sector. Trades at a premium because it has perhaps the lowest geopolitical risk of any producer. Valuation is too rich.

Bought it yesterday heading into earnings. They disappointed a bit because of rising expenses, but you can definitely buy in dips. Is still up 20% this year. They will continue to pay off debt as they buy back shares like crazy. Pays a nice dividend.

Likes gold, and this is a good way to play. Excellent management, prudent and disciplined use of capital. Good assets. 12 varied mines in low-political-risk jurisdictions. Low cost. Increases to dividend were paused, but should resume. Close to debt-free. Sleep at night.

Ranks #1 in the head-to-head battles. Doing the best out of all the Canadian stocks right now. Trending up, and gold has broken through $3000. Continues to outperform, hasn't seen a 3-box reversal at all. Yield is 1.54%.

His favourite gold senior. His guess is that in the next month or so, Trump's going to roll back a lot of stuff and the economy will be better. So areas like gold are going to sell off.

Likes that about 90% of mines are in Canada, with rest being in geopolitical-positive environments. Strong management team are good allocators of capital. Stock's done so well, hard to find entry for new clients; a function of the price of gold and flight to safety.
