Agnico-Eagle Mines (AEM) is widely recognized among analysts as a premier gold mining company, particularly noted for its solid cash flow and strong balance sheet, boasting around $3 billion in cash reserves. Experts emphasize its operations in politically stable jurisdictions and its consistent production growth, which enhances its attractiveness as an investment. Despite recent share price volatility due to fluctuations in gold prices, many analysts advocate for AEM as a long-term holding, recommending strategic stop-loss measures. The consensus support for AEM stems from its ability to generate significant free cash flow, disciplined debt management, and a history of meeting or exceeding production guidance. The current yield and potential for dividends are also regarded as favorable attributes, adding to its appeal among investors looking for a hedge against inflation.

Valuation

Barrick,ABX

BUY

Metals have seen a yo-yo ride, but have broken out since mid-2019. As long as AEM stays above the $70 neckline, this is good. There's room to break-out, though a retracement to $70 can be possible. He likes gold and silver, generally speaking.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Mar 29/19, Up 24%) Gold has broken out, breaking its previous downturn. There's been a series of higher lows. There are two mines in Nunavut coming up and it has outperformed output targets in the past year.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

All the gold stocks have done well recently. Gold could get more attention paid to it with global economies slowing down. He always has at least minor exposure to a gold producer. AEM-T is probably a bit higher price within the group. He would look at it on a setback.

BUY

He confesses that gold is an enigma to him. Gold has now awoken from its slumber. Its producers have underperformed since 2011. He's exposed cautiously through FNV-T, though he would be comfortable owning AEM. Good managers with assets around the world and wisely acquire other companies. Their assets are in safe countries, not banana republics, which is a problem for some gold producers.

TOP PICK

He is not a gold bug, but he likes to identify sectors that are hated, but starting to change. This company has continued to avoid geopolitical risk and management has executed new projects well. It is now time to reap the benefits from a cash flow perspective. Dividend growth will begin to accelerate. Yield 0.88% (Analysts’ price target is $77.19)

BUY

What gold stock to buy today? They have high reserves on the ground, pays a good dividend and is well-managed. Production costs are also fine, and they are geopolitically safe, since they operate in Finland. They have leverage after buying eight projects since 2011. Their dividend is tied to production to earnings. It will be self-sufficient in three years; they won't need money again.

WEAK BUY

She does not have exposure to gold. Gold has broken out above $1400, which was a key level. She does not see it weakening significantly. If she wanted to put in a gold name, this would be a prime candidate.

HOLD

Junior gold producers? The best values in gold are the juniors -- especially if we get a good rally in gold again. He does hold AEM-T, but thinks the real gems are the juniors.

TOP PICK

The best-managed gold major. Production has been up and beaten forecasts 7 straight years. Two new mines in Nunavut are coming though. If you believe inflation will come back, then gold is a place to be. (Analysts’ price target is $65.43)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jun 22/18, Down 0.1%) This have been a frequent top pick. Management has performed very well. This company will be completely self sufficient by 2022. Dividend has been increasing. Cost of production is about C$650. This will continue to deliver. It is followed by a lot of institutions, and they have sold off their precious metal positions of the portfolios.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Feb 01/18, Down 1%) Gold prices fell. This is the go to name in the gold business. This company will continue to grow.

HOLD

It is one of the best managed gold mines in Canada. They have a good team. Production in North America is safe. This is an excellent executing company but he does not own gold in his portfolios.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Oct 30/18, Up 11%) This become self-sufficient by 2021 and won't need to raise money for their future projects. A rare company in this space that's raising their dividend. Good management.

HOLD

Lots of analysts favour this. Production profile is promising. Hasn't studied it from a valuation point of view, and as a value investor, valuing gold companies has always been a struggle. His gold exposure is under 3%. If you own it, probably still hold it.

TOP PICK

One of his top picks for years. Beat earnings, and raised guidance. Management is unbelievable, awesome leverage going forward. A gift at this price. Yield is 1.2%. (Analysts’ price target is $60.77)
