Equinox Gold (EQX) is at a pivotal moment following its recent merger, positioning itself as the second-largest gold producer in Canada with significant production potential. However, experts express caution regarding gold prices, which may see a pullback in the short term. The company's balance sheet is better than before, and Newfoundland is deemed a relatively solid gold province for investment, but volatility is expected. The current CEO's strategy is seen as pivotal for navigating potential market issues. Investors are advised to brace for episodic rewards while recognizing that the broader gold market may experience a period of consolidation, marking the early stages of a longer bull market cycle.

DON'T BUY

Gold prices are hard to predict. EQX just merged and will become the #2 gold producer in Canada to $1.9 million in production in the future. The challenge will be their execution. The gold price will likely take a breather or even pull back.

WEAK BUY

Newfoundland is a good, as opposed to great, gold province. Balance sheet looks much better. Will do well going forward. Investors need to be prepared for shocks, rewards will be episodic. Market will be afraid of some of its moves, but the current CEO will ensure those things work out over time.

PARTIAL SELL

Doesn't own this one, but 6-7 weeks ago he reduced his gold exposure after this wonderful rally. Thinks we're in for a period of some consolidation. We're in the very early stages of a long-term bull market, it's just taking a breath. Past gold markets have tended to move in 3 legs. The intermediate and small companies will have lots of opportunities in the next leg higher.

He has some Kinross and some AEM. He likes their jurisdictions, where he's comfortable with the risks.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

In the very near term, may trade off because it's acquiring CXB. Looking out over 1 year, suspects Canadian operations will ramp up and they'll do very well as they generate more free cash. Larger size means likely included in more indexes.

HOLD

It had mixed results over the past few years but is ramping up production in Ontario and paying down its large debt. It could pay off its debt over the next three years at the price of gold even a few months ago at around $2700 which would be good for the stock price. Gold could reach $3000.

HOLD

They've had mixed results in past years. They are, though, ramping up an Ontario project to fill capacity, as they pay down their heavy debt. At $2,800 gold and at full capacity, the company expects to pay down all debt in 3 years. Stick with it. It's expected for gold to keep rising, some saying $3,000.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 12/23, Up 36%)

Recent projects that are not on time very disappointing (market turned out to be correct). Problems with operations elsewhere in the company also a concerned. Investors could see another equity issue - but isn't sure. Company has a lot of debt. Will continue to hold share - believes in management.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

EQX is reiterated as a TOP PICK.  Management updated estimates of its 100% owned Ontario holding, indicating a higher grade of gold yield than previously estimated.  We like that quarterly cash reserves are growing, while debt is reduced.  It trades at 10x earnings and under book value.  We recommend trailing up the stop (from $5.50) to $6.00 at this time, looking to achieve $10.50 -- upside potential of 23%.  Yield 0%  

(Analysts’ price target is $10.33)

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

EQX operates 8 producing gold mines in Brazil, Mexico, Canada and the USA and is enroute to producing 1 million ounces annually.  The company expanded its holding in the Greenstone mine to hold 100% of the asset.  It trades at 14x earnings and under book value.  We recommend setting a stop-loss at $5.50, looking to achieve $10.00 -- upside potential over 35%.  Yield 0%   

(Analysts’ price target is $10.19)
HOLD

Gold's pulled back along with the market correction of the last couple of days. Looking at the chart, steady uptrend of higher lows, quietly working its way higher. At this point, looks like a correction within the trend.

PARTIAL BUY

Owns shares, and is a long term investors in the company. Share prices have been punished due to skepticism on mine build out - but is recovering. Expecting a higher share price if company is able to execute on latest mine prospects. 

STRONG BUY

Their intrinsic value is rising rapidly. The stock is an interesting breakout point, possibly to $13-14. He's bullish the junior gold names and the price of gold.
