AEM and AU puts have been my bread and butter lately. AGI has also been decent.
Gold miners' #1 operating cost expenditure by far is fuel (65-75%). Puts on AEM, AU, AGI, etc. is literally free money. These guys are fucked.
AEM puts are the gift that just keeps on giving
AI burn-in demand changed, TRT, Sunright, AEHR, Cohu, AEM, whole sector is rerating.
I work in a full adobe tech stack company. I don't agree with this. Adobe essentially has a monopoly on omnichannel digitally personalized tech stacks. They do front end with AEM, e-commerce with Magento/Adobe Commerce, Customer Data Platform, email/sms/push/in-app through AJO, omnichannel analytics with CJA, and an ad tech platform. There's tons of issues with what they provide, but there isn't another company competing at the same level in the same way.
GDX is the gold mining ETF, AEM gold mining company, RGLD gold loyalty stream company. SIL silver mining ETF, HL silver mining company, WPM silver loyalty stream company
Premium miners like AEM make money when gold is above $1100-1400. Even with some higher fuel costs, they’re still minting money.
I'll probably chicken out long before then. I was down 41% at close yesterday.. My AEM March '27 230/290 bull spreads were down 29% yesterday. Everything I buy just shits itself.
I've got a March 2027 AEM bull spread, 230/290. And a July '26 GLD 475/500. The first is now -30% & the second -40%. Everything I buy just shits itself lately
So, I've got March '27 LEAPS on AEM, MSFT, META, TEAM.. they're all down badly. Seems like money has decided to rotate out if the tech sector, and AEM is just dumping becUse Gold has stalled. What do we think - gtfo or hold? All these companies are still stupidly profitable..
Sold most AI stocks in 2024 got into Muni bonds for risk management and try to control hefty state income tax. \~15% total bond and fixed assets in portfolios some appreciated 15% avg growth on mini has been +3.5%. They pay 3-5% tax free(Fed & State) interest. For stability I bought gold streaming financial stocks before Taco came on board 2nd term. Knowing that character, it has stabilize volatility of total portfolio as well. Some like AEM has gained +371% following gold market also. Stock like RDDT has shunk -50% so far this year.
The only real logic I’ve heard is people assuming extraction will cost more with fuel price surge. But leaders like AEM have all-in costs around $1100-1500 per ounce, so even if fuel goes up they’re still minting a fortune per ounce.
I'm in AGI, AEM, AU and FNV for gold, AG for silver.
I’m not overly worried about the miners. AEM is best of breed and recently reported. They have all in costs of $1100-1400 per ounce. They can operate with nice profit as long as gold is $2000. The more above $2000 gold is, the more the windfall. They chose to operate in stable regions, providing another cushion.
Hi folks, I hold AEM and Maple Gold Mines. AEM holds 20% of MGM so that’s why I invested into the smaller company. It’s 3$CAD per share at the moment and I was convinced by the new CEOs presentation.
personally, I will go for the biggest names as a core position both on on gold and silver (which is even more coiled than gold but riskier), in particular AEM, WPM, PAAS, AG and have a couple smaller names with higher risk reward, in particular Ross Beaty's EQX (relatively high AISC being worked on but the guy is nicknamed the broken slot machine for a reason), and VZLA, which is clearly the highest risk but has been sitting in the gutter for the last couple of weeks due to its Cartel issues. No Barrick or Newmont for me for instance as they are redundant with AEM, which is by far the best of the three.
I hopped into AG and NG recently. Both hitting new highs right now but I understand the big guys are NEM, B, AEM, KGC and the like. As well as PAAS, HL, WPM, etc. You are probably right that an ETF might be reasonable for big guys and one focussed on the juniors. I just hate paying their fees, so I'll keep evaluating. Always interested in learning from others. Just starting my research. Been invested in uranium for years and it's paid off well (with much more upside to come) but I think the explosion in silver and gold miners, as they get repriced relative to the run-ups in silver and gold, is much closer at hand. Plan to get better invested for that run up shortly. Any advice on good ways to get better educated welcome!
Been fully ported into SA seabridge gold - it’s already a lever on gold. I’m expecting it to go parabolic with Q1 approval of a few rulings. Own 300k at the moment and the rest of my fun money is AEM and KGC who have promised a bunch of buybacks.
I’ve comsidered taking gains so many times, but I keep seeing the fundamentals still work. AEM is best of breed. Their all in costs were recently affirmed as somewhere between $1100 and $1500. They said they can operate happily even if gold crashes to $2200. Of course even gold falls much less than that, the stocks will get pulverized anyway. But they don’t need to be. They also point out discoveries are just not happening, so the shortages will continue for the foreseeable future. And should gold collapse, it’s not like that will spur discovery.
AEM, AGI, AU, and AG have not failed. In fact, all are up to ATH after that plunge on gold and silver on Jan 29. NFA.
CNQ, AEM, EQX you’re welcome
Took a beat today to digest the Q4 2025 gold miner reports, which is about 25% of my portfolio at this point because I'm a greedy fucker and want that sweet gold leverage. I've always had the thesis: Dividends are for boomers, the Gold Mining play is going to get crowded with rotations out of the QQQ crowd and other FOMO trades late to gold look for value. (Doesn't even mean overbought when they do, but they are already coming) Because of this I chase miners with the largest pure gains, Everyone's books are fantastic, debts paid off giant war-chests, now looking for who is investing in ***buybacks*** not boomer bait dividends. This is a massive shift, not a buy and hold for 10 year Berkshire play. Keep sizing up SA, gold was down and Seabridge went up, which tells me someone large is inside trading on key JV news or permitting approval. But for the miners, NEM announced guidance that they are going to pull less gold from the ground as prior, and B announced an end to buybacks, which tells me their leadership thinks their stock is overweight and they don't share my bull Gold thesis, so I sold 100% of those fools. KGC and AEM are who I rotated into. KGC is growing compellingly and continues buybacks (CFO said buybacks start "next week" on the Feb 18 call), AEM is doing great, both are continuing buybacks and announced a 2B buyback programs. This is just guarenteed returns on top of returns, and when gold finally does find a top, my dividends aren't cut like a public-school-pizza. In short, Dumped NEM and B, Bought SA and KGC and AEM with the money. Don't buy PM miners without signing up for COMEX margin change email newsletters, if they get fucky again DUMP EVERYTHING and rebuy at the bottom.
I moved from GLD LEAPS to a few gold miners (AU, AGI, AEM) instead, which have bounced back harder than GLD since the drop.
Precious metals equity valuations have trailed the price of the gold/silver prices. Quality miners are printing cashflow at these prices. Have to stick with management teams that respect shareholders equity and are returning excess cashflow in the form of dividends and share buybacks: Agnico Eagle ($AEM) Equinox Gold ($EQX) Pan American Silver ($PAAS) There's probably tons of other currently non-producing miners with permitted projects whose economics look extremely good with current prices, but I like the margin of safety in Skeena Resources ($SKE)
I like the miners, $B $AEM $KGC
$AEM. Bought after Randgold Resources (DL: GOLD) was delisted when Barrick bought them out.
Good and silver miners finally outperforming the metals after yesterday's bullshit and $AEM results showing they are the most profitable industry in the world
At some point regards here will realize that buying gold mining companies like AEM who reported yesterday going in a year from 1B debt to 2B cash, with a 1.3B free cash flow and 73% operating margin, 2B in buybacks, a 12% increase in dividend... is better than Bag7 like google who will spend 180B on Capex only (what about Opex and salaries?) from a 130B net profit. By then MM will have bought already and y'all be left Bag7holding
I had planned a sale for tomorrow, hoping that AEM’s results tonight would show what happens when your AISC is $900 and your budget plan is for $2000/Oz but gold goes to $5000 instead.
AEM massive Shrek dong after earnings
Gotta get some more AEM + METC soon
In your situation, I would wait for gold to bottom (soon), and trade UGL, AEM, PAAS, AG and SII in some mechanical pattern, without overtrading, based on at least three years bull market ahead. Calls or stocks is a personal preference, but these ones.
AEM reports Thursday. It has run a lot, but I can’t see why the sick numbers can’t continue. Their AISC is said to be around $1000 per oz. Their recent strategies and forecasts have been with an assumption of $2200 gold price.
Is AEM still worth it in golds bullish run rn?
i tried indy stocks but realized if i cant be in front of a computer all day, i cant win. so i kept a couple of buy & holds for small part of portfolio: GOOGL, RY & waiting for AEM to drop a bit. i'm loaded on SOFI and it's waaaay too volatile
I put it all in agq seeing its going parabolic. Some leftover in SLV and AEM from earlier
The miner with the highest dividends (AEM) is the only stock I intentionally have zero exposure to. If you look 6 months or 1Y views you will see AEM for instance is only up 69% vs the rest at 130% - My theory is: We are entering hype and FOMO trade cycles, the gold news is not fringe any longer. A bunch of QQQ "Past performance guarantees future results" momentum traders are joining the chat, and they will screen out boomer dividend stocks and screen for the highest yield potential not seeing dividends masking returns. This trade is also not one of picking up small dividends over years, it's about capturing maximum potential upside in a giant monetary regime shift, and every USD is a stranded asset.
EXK, ASM, PAAS, HYMC, HL, CDE and leaps on gold majors, AEM, B, NEM
Since 2018, averaging down a bit, then sitting on 814%. 6% of my portfolio suddenly became 36%. Between USAS and AEM my tech stocks could harikiri and and I would still be ok.
I have a small aoumt on AEM and ABX. Both have been doing well.
Long term holder of B, AEM, KGC & WPM
Kinross (KGC) has been incredible for me. As have AEM and NEM.
AEM. In since October. Had to suffer through a dip but it's doing well now.
I cashed out my individuals like AEM B PAAS NEM and went full into GDX and GDXJ. I've had more steady gains that way and less weird days where one takes a random shit. I just bought into a .50 Jr mining company in canada but I can't talk about it here it's 200 mil market cap
The gold majors (FNV and AEM) are the safest stocks, but they are very expensive relative to the smaller mine developers. My favorite mine developer is BTG, it has had many issues the last couple of years and the stock has done poorly relative to other gold miners. It now trades at a very low valuation and I expect that it will solve many of its problems this year. Perfect set up for a nice run higher.
Probably a take over candidate. I have let these miners roll. I should have taken profits but until I see some sort of inventory fix and I don't see one anytime soon or I see some US fiscal sanity I will cash them out. AEM @ 40 was a great entry point. When yamana got bought it picked that up with paas @ 14. They didnt move for tears really. I just walked away and stopped looking. You are a smart trader, I am throwing a hail Mary i suppose. Vzla I am watching too, no position. They are unhedged silver miner.
Watched AG's CEO interview recently, a well-known guy. He mentioned this, and said he can't say a number yet for legal reasons, but it is \[some superlative\] large. Separately, Rich Rule mentioned that too, naming these AEM and PAAS. And numerically, for a high-cost producer such as AG, a price spike like silver had recently affects earnings non-linearly. Also from CEO, their AISC for silver was about $19 in 2025: with silver notionally at $40 in Q3 that makes for $21 in revenue; in Q4, for silver notionally at $60 on average, that makes for $41 in revenue. Also AG is clever with its sales, keeps silver in treasury, not only dollars, and has likely sold into a vertical spike, so if their earnings in Q4 could have been double the Q3, or better. All this does not give any number to go on, but it will definitely be an absolute blast of earnings, which is what CEO said.
Yes I agree, in fact I previously posted my thesis on McEwen Mining as copper/gold mining play and potential acquisition target for Barrick, given the focus of gold mining majors like AEM/B/NEM on developing massive copper porphyry systems. [https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/1nnr3mg/yolo\_600k\_speculation\_on\_mux\_as\_barrick\_ma\_target/](https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/1nnr3mg/yolo_600k_speculation_on_mux_as_barrick_ma_target/)
*Valuation Stretched* Stock up ~ (Yahoo Finance) 138% YTD with a 35.7x earnings multiple. Average analyst price target of $51.55 implies ~4% downside, suggesting the stock is "priced to perfection" (TipRanks). P/S ratio of 4.49x near its 3-year high of 4.54x, well above industry average of 2.74x (Finimize) *Good News Already Priced In* Concerns mounting that the market has already priced in much of the good news from the $2.1 billion MAG Silver deal and higher production guidance (Weiss Ratings) With the stock trading near its 52-week high and institutional buying like North of South Capital's 444% stake increase already disclosed, fresh incremental catalysts are limited in the near term (Weiss Ratings) *Silver Price Dependency* Financial health closely tied to the price of metals on the world stage (Finimize). Silver is notoriously volatile—a mean reversion from current ~$30+ levels would compress margins significantly. Shares vulnerable to pullbacks as traders react to any disappointment in silver prices (Weiss Ratings) *Operational/Execution Risks* Business model heavily exposed to operational disruptions, cost inflation, regulatory challenges and environmental compliance in multiple jurisdictions (Weiss Ratings). Faces integration and execution risk as it manages assets at different stages of their life cycles (Weiss Ratings). Increased exploration costs have sparked discussions about potential impact on future production and profit margins (StocksToTrade). *Jurisdictional Risk* Operations across Mexico, Peru, Argentina, Bolivia—politically volatile mining jurisdictions. Permitting and social-license requirements can delay projects or restrict expansions. Mexico in particular has become increasingly hostile to mining interests. Poor Shareholder Returns Relative to Volatility. Weak dividend support—despite reasonable profitability and 11.29% ROE, shareholders not being well-compensated through dividends for the volatility they endure (Weiss Ratings). Compared with peers like Southern Copper (SCCO) and Agnico Eagle (AEM), PAAS offers similar ratings but less dividend support (Weiss Ratings). *Technical Weakness* Recent session volume of 3.77M shares well below the 90-day average of 6.57M, suggesting pullback unfolding without heavy buying support (Weiss Ratings). Stock losing ground near the top of its trading range rather than extending higher (Weiss Ratings). Bottom line: If you're bearish silver prices, see the MAG Silver integration as a "sell the news" event, or believe the ~30-35x multiple is unsustainable for a miner, PAAS has meaningful downside risk from current levels. The analyst targets clustered around $51-52 vs. recent trading near $53-55 suggest limited upside even in a constructive scenario.
So should I dump some into AEM? Or is it risky now
Earnings come in February. AEM, PAAS and AG will have an absolute blast of earnings.
AEM is the best gold miner in the world. B lacks the quality and historical excellence. You have so much money in the gold industry, yet don’t understand why AEM has a premium. Rookie who got lucky.
yeah AEM is comparable to B. for some reason B is lagging behind AEM. it has identical gold production, market cap and profits but B is lagging behind. could be because B doesn’t have permanent CEO yet. hoping Q4 report changes that
Nice job Op. AEM looks like it’s a good spot to buy right now where it hasn’t broken back out after October like the other majors
No new individual picks for me (just feeding VTI/VXUS) but I have some QS I’m gonna let ride (very small % of portfolio) Also have a gold miner (AEM) and copper (SCCO). Took profit from AEM over the last couple months, maybe too soon, but was up over 250% from my basis and seemed prudent. Still have a small amount on the table.
I got a lot between sil and SILJ, going to throw all my bond money into SLV. I ended up selling out of AEM and NEM due to unnecessary overlap with GDX and GDXJ etc. Wish me luck tomorrow
I mean with oil so cheap and metal prices so high it's almost difficult for a miner to not make money If you are even half decent at valuing businesses and can avoid the obvious pitfalls the potential is just unbelievable Even if you think miners are doomed it's worth chucking a few bucks into at least the ETF's, the risk / reward asymmetry is just unbelievable right now For example, AEM's (Agnico Eagle) FCF is going up *faster than the stock price*. And it's up 124% on the year. That is absolutely wild
I direct dev teams for a Fortune 500. Every time I see a company using AEM, I have to assume that their CTO just absolutely loves to burn money *after* they wipe their asses with it. Then, they inhale the smoke to get some semblance of that long, long-ago time, back when they had more than 3 functional brain cells. Similarly, Adobe Commerce is a complete mockery of what Magento once was, and it's not integrated into AEM well at all. It's like a drunken hillbilly decided to weld his old broken down trunk onto his mobile home so give himself yet another bathroom for their wipe/burn/inhale ritual.
AEM -7% I’d buy if i had overnight hours lol
B is outperforming NEM and AEM. The setup is better, same with P/E and growth prospects with Fourmile and maybe Riko Diq (but that's riskier). IPO of the Fourmile/North American Assets is coming. Watch out.
Damn OK I'm in then. What about AEM? Already too popular? They are so established figured it was a safe bet
Nice, I was going to go deep into AEM and NEM but those are good too
FIX, GOOGL, ALAB. If I thought it was a bullish year. I'm not convinced. So. AEM, XLU, XLV.
Ones on my watch list that I haven’t taken the plunge on: MLI (mueller industrials- makes copper plumbing materials among other things ) V (visa) ONDS (onidas- a drone manufacturer) ERIE (Erie insurances company) Djco (daily journal- Charlie mungers holding company) PGR (progressive insurance) WM (waste management ) Ones I own I’d consider more of: AEM (agnico eagle mines- Canadian gold miner) RNMBY (rheinmetall- European defense manufacturing) CVX- (chevron oil)
Wild how I went from +3 to -7, must be adobe bag holders. Adobes entire business model is predicated on images and videos being unbelievably difficult to create at professional quality. They have some revenue in website orchestration like AEM, but in large part they are tooling for professionals to create things. It’s becoming exceedingly obvious that 1- Professional experience is not longer required to create high quality images and video 2- The relative cost of image creation and video creation is already going down. Look at the video game industry, ad industry, etc. the job listings in those industries for artists have fallen off a cliff. You can argue that the subscription model they have is super sticky and that ai doesn’t 1:1 replace everything adobe can do yet, but it’s undoubtedly true that content creation is getting commoditized already and better ai / greater adoption will only make it worse so their ability to extract margins is going to massively decline over the next few years. I’ve seen many adobe fanboys try to say that adobe is going to win the ai creation competition which is 1: completely false their models are absolutely trash when even compared to Chinese open source models like seedream 2: even if it was true and they have the best models somehow, their business depends on creation being a professional skill set and having zero viable competitors (their margins are absurd).
CDE - gold and mining stock AEM IAG
Time to rotate into the juniors imo, the mega caps may only move hard if there will be degen option plays from the masses. If you still wanna play the majors, AEM, WPM, FNV are fundamentally way better than Barrick.
I have been DCAing many mineral mining stocks like HL, CDE, AEM and the like. Recently got into energy ETFs like PHO and VDE. also WM is always good to DCA in my opinion. That said, I decided to sell all my tech stock (42 NVDA and AMD, RIGHT before the AMD spike over $200=(....... But I moved a lot of that capital into my Robinhood account where I've been DCAing all those I mentioned (and some I didn't) PLUS selling options on TSLL. Been getting 10%/month on average since August so.... Can't complain yet
I stand corrected thankyou for the input. I still can share some mining stocks if you’re interested with better ror than mag 7. AU GFI KGC NEM B ZIJMY AEM
Wonder if Barrick will split up into Africa and NA components. Wonder if it does... if AEM picks up the NA assets.
It's a good stock. Actually, AEM bought $6 million of GQC at $0.60. my portfolio is focused on juniors because I'm looking aiming for 1-3000% giants.
I actually went with call options on miners AEM/B/GFI/NEM But I cut some of my losses during the dip.
Some potential opportunities. AEM is set up to make money when gold is > $1800. Stock is down 20% in 2 weeks. RDDT sharp growth was confirmed days ago. They appear to have gotten away with having 98% of their work done by unpaid volunteers. Stock is down 33% from recent highs, down 20% since the day after earnings. RKT is priced the same as it was before it massively expanded by completing acquisition of Redfin and Mr Cooper. Recent stat is the one third of current mortgages could be refinanced for a couple thousand dollars of savings or more. Crypto is probably fairy dust, but a crime family administration is guaranteeing its success with the full faith and credit of the United States of America. Main constituents down 20% in recent weeks. Meta is evil and mints money. Down almost 25% from ATH after reporting strong earnings. Uber has quietly switched from mild profit to reporting a tripling of profits as of today. Down 10%. Solar is free electricity from the sky. One leader in solar is up 100% this year, while another best of breed name is down 90% and priced at pre-pandemic levels. This, as consumers face parabolic cost increases for electricity and major corporations are outbidding each other daily for every drop of the highest cost electricity. Some of these will continue to implode. But some are becoming buying opportunities.
NEM and AEM smash earnings and crickets. Then no news will happen and they go up another 10%

AEM just announced an EPS 19% over expected. So I'm hoping I'm going to be selling all these shares I just bought
AEM is mining ~3.5 million ounces of gold at $950 an ounce. Gold dips 10% from ATH and crushes their stock 20% Even at $4,000 an ounce, that's still $3000/oz of free cash flow.
Time to buy AEM now. 19% increase in EPS is unheard of
AEM off making cool billions on the yellow metal but apparently the stock market don't care
I wanna long AEM but Jim Cranmer also suggests owning the stock… what to do
My port is in Gold, MSFT, GOOGL, and AEM.. With earnings tonight, tomorrow I'll either be eating steak, or fkn two minute noodles.. we'll see.
It won’t move until AEM earnings I think.

Very true. I've been looking at AEM, which is up 108% YTD.
Why are you holding this it isn’t moving for you? Sell and put it in $GLD or $AEM? Gold is going to continue to 🚀
If gold has another major selloff in AH/Premarket, my port will be fully charliekirked. I went all in on GLD, AEM, B, NEM 💀
Can we pump NEM/B/AEM/GFI? P/E's of 15,14, 20, and 20 respectively Gold going to the fkn moon on the back of nervous banks and mango man. Your AI slop stocks with their triple digit P/Es don't look so hot in comparison
1. I think it greatly depends. Living with your parents with few expenses? Maybe 1-3 months. Are you the only breadwinner in a family of 5? Maybe 1 year at least. 2. I put about 10% of my investments in XHLF for this exact reason in my brokerage. If you do put some aside to 'buy the dip', I suggest you have it in _something_ gaining you interest in the interim. On the other have, nothing wrong with dollar cost averaging into investments you feel confident in. 3. Depends. I have a traditional IRA, a Roth, and a brokerage each with different goals. My Roth is just GLDM, AMZN, and VGT, about equal shares of each. I should add VOO, and probably SCHD, but I don't have much in there ATM. The goal here is just growth with some preservation. My IRA is mostly dividend assets I believe in, including SCHD, though with some growth and preservation in there as well (even a bit of TQQQ for some spice). This will likely be my main source of income in retirement, and I'm really just focused on that. My brokerage is mixed, with individual stocks I believe in (e.g. AEM, AMAT) and high income yielding ETFs that I might lean on in hard economic times (e.g. QQQI). But, this is just me. It's _essential_ you think about what you want out of these products before deciding how to invest. 4. I basically listen to Buffett and instigate stocks he has confidence in to see if they will work for me. 5. Real Estate if you have the money and patience to deal with tenants.

They've actually been fairly disciplined on not making shitty purchases. 2010 saw miners buying all sorts of shit that never paid off when prices tanked. NEM and AEM focusing on cost reduction rather than growth is smart leadership. Juniors will be where the real tanking happens.
AEM actual call play gold miner with the best earnings
