Barrick Gold Corp (ABX-N) has faced a challenging year, with rising costs affecting its performance despite gold prices increasing by 13%. The company's shares have declined by 9%, leading to disappointment among experts who had hoped for a closer correlation between Barrick's stock and gold prices. While the CEO is considered a positive factor, the shift in production focus to higher-cost North American operations has been a concern, especially following a reported earnings beat that was overshadowed by increasing production costs. Although Barrick is taking steps to control expenses and boost production, the general consensus suggests that the company's performance has not kept pace with the gold market. A notable advantage lies in its 2.5% dividend, which provides some return to shareholders amidst the ongoing volatility.

His go-to gold name because of the CEO. Gold stocks haven't been hitting new highs like gold itself. Last February they reported an earnings beat and inline revenue and production, but shares got hammered over higher production costs. More of their gold comes from North America where labour costs are higher; they used to have more mining in cheaper Latin America. Also, guidance may be too cautious. Shares are finally starting to catch up to the gold price; same goes with many gold stocks.
Very disappointed. Gold has made a big run lately, but Barrick hasn't done much. The best thing about it is its 2.5% dividend. That's it.
It's been disappointing, despite a good CEO. He's looking at Agnico-Eagle in the gold space.
Can't recommend gold stocks now, unless it's a very small portion of your portfolio.
