This summary was created by AI, based on 52 opinions in the last 12 months.

Agnico-Eagle Mines (AEM) has garnered considerable attention from experts due to its strategic positioning in low-risk jurisdictions, exceptional management team, and robust production capabilities mainly in gold. Many analysts indicate that despite recent highs and a strong past performance with significant capital returns, the stock may face some short-term volatility in alignment with gold price fluctuations. However, long-term investors are encouraged to hold or incrementally increase their positions, given the company's strong balance sheet and growth prospects in cash flow generation. Additionally, its consistent dividend growth and reputation as a leader in the gold mining sector make it a reliable choice for investors, albeit with some caution advised regarding timing due to current valuations and market conditions.

TOP PICK
Likes companies that are doing well in the current environment. They don't need things to get a lot better to make money. Expected to triple production between now and 2012. They don't need cash. Will double their cash flow in the next year. Very little political risk. Probably the “go to” name for US institutional investors.
TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 28/08. Up 50.62%.) One of the lowest cost gold producers. He likes the mid-caps because these are the ones the big companies will be looking to buy. Great management team.
COMMENT
Versus Seabridge Golds (SEA-T) or Barrick (ABX-T). Likes the gold space but prefers it through the producers in iUnits Gold S&P/TSX ETF (XGD-T). Barrick still has some hedging so this one might be a little better. He prefers owning the group or commodity rather than individual names.
COMMENT
Lots of cash reserves. Great exploration potential and a potential for increased production. He prefers playing gold through the XGD-T.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 28/08. Up 35.3%.) Sold this one at $68 for a gain of 12.41%. He may buy this again.
DON'T BUY
They’ve taken on an incredible amount of debt and that is the problem. Way too much debt. Gold is pretty fairly valued.
WAIT
His style is not to do market timing but instead, try to own the highest quality company with a good growth profile. The 2 that he likes are Goldcorp (G-T) and Agnico-Eagle (AEM-T). He buys and sells on valuation, which has big trading bands. Gold comes off from now until summer.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick July 25/08. Up 5.5%.) In and out of this with a net gain of 96%. Currently out of gold because he thinks the relative value of oil producers merits consideration. Will go back in when oil balances in his portfolio.
BUY
Likely to double production in each of the next 2 years.
TOP PICK
Bullish on gold. This company has a great growth story with a number of new mines coming on. By the time their last mine comes on in 2010 will be at 1.2 million ounces production at expected cash costs of $285. They don't have to raise capital.
DON'T BUY
He has a short on this one because he is more worried about their base metal business. Worried about their Q4 report. Would prefer to stick to pure gold.
BUY
(Market Call Minute.) You want to own gold at this time.
TOP PICK
Potential to increase production over the next number of years. Not hedged. Low cost producer.
COMMENT
Well run. Has a lot of base metal exposures so if you are really out for gold, consider a company with a more pure play.
BUY
One of the stronger growth companies. One of the “go to” stocks in the larger gold producers. Would also include Kinross (K-T) and Goldcorp (G-T) in that category. (See Top Picks.)
