The silver price futures contract surged to a new record on Monday, while copper and gold also shined, though not as brightly. Tight supply and expectations for more Federal Reserve rate cuts, including under the next chairman expected to be appointed by President Donald Trump, are supportive of both precious and industrial metals.

Wheaton Precious Metals, Royal Gold, U.S. Gold, BHP Group and Anglo American are among mining stocks near buy points on Monday.

Trump tariffs also are contributing to the rise in the copper price to a four-month high, as markets position for confirmation that the administration will impose a tariff on refined copper amid a tight supply-demand balance.

Copper, Gold, Silver Price

The near-term copper futures contract rose 0.4% to $5.29 a pound. Copper soared to a record high of $5.96 in July on anticipation of a 50% tariff on refined copper imports, but tumbled to $4.35 on July 30, when the Trump administration surprised markets by limiting tariffs to semifinished products.

However, markets anticipate that the Trump administration will eventually extend tariffs to refined copper. BMO Research analyst Helen Amos noted on Nov. 27 that New York commodities exchange prices for May delivery are $560 a ton higher than London prices, "reflecting tariff speculation."

A shortfall in copper output due to mining setbacks at Freeport-McMoRan, Teck Resources and Ivanhoe Mines has contributed to tighter-than-expected supply. That's helped push the copper price higher, along with demand for electric power fueled by data centers for AI and growth in EV sales.

More electrical demand means more demand for copper, used extensively in wiring, dynamo windings, etc.

The silver price climbed 3.3% to $59.05 an ounce. Last week, silver blew past its prior record of $54.41 from Nov. 12. The gold price rose 0.4% to $4,272 an ounce.

Deutsche Bank said on Nov. 26 that it expected silver to rise to $58.50 per ounce by the fourth quarter of 2026 and average $60 in 2027. The firm raised its 2026 gold price forecast to $4,450 an ounce from $4,000, saying the price could rise as high as $4,950 during the year.

Deutsche Bank analyst Michael Hsueh highlighted ETF demand as a main reason that he expects a silver supply deficit to continue and a key source of support for the gold price. Some ETFs hold the precious metals in storage vaults.

Fed Outlook

Markets are pricing in 88% odds of a quarter-point rate cut at the Dec. 10 Fed meeting, according to CME Group's FedWatch tool. That would lower the Fed's key rate to a range of 3.5% to 3.75%, and markets see another two or three quarter-point moves in 2026.

The Fed is prioritizing support for a lackluster job market ahead of concern about still-elevated inflation. However, the picture could change as employment and inflation data delayed by the government shutdown starts flowing in after the Fed meeting.

Still, Wall Street anticipates that Trump's choice of a successor to Jerome Powell as chairman will be the dovish side. Trump has been vocal about his support for swift rate cuts and a lower dollar vs. foreign currencies. Trump has settled on a nominee, believed to be Kevin Hassett, White House National Economic Council director.

Copper, Silver, Gold Stocks To Watch

Copper giant Freeport-McMoRan narrowed its opening gain to 0.7% on Monday afternoon. FCX powered past its 10-week moving average last week, flashing an early entry opportunity, but is still only 6% above the key technical level.

Wheaton Precious Metals reversed an early opening price dip and gained 0.5%. Shares of the Vancouver-based streaming company jumped 3.1% to 110.05 on Friday, clearing a 108.68 buy point, according to MarketSurge pattern recognition on a weekly chart.

Royal Gold slipped 1.3% to 201.16, leaving it 4% below a 209.42 buy point from a cup base. RGLD is about 6% above its 50-day line after breaking above the key level last week.

Anglo American, which is buying Teck Resources to double down on its copper bet, popped 1.5% to 19.20 on Monday. The thinly-traded ADR and Teck shares are both flashing early entries. NGLOY has a flat-base buy point of 19.98.

BHP Group, a diversified miner with a major copper portfolio, climbed 0.9% to 55.23, right at its 50-day line, while trying to reclaim a 55.38 cup-with-handle buy point.

U.S. Gold moved clear of its 50-day line on Friday but edged 0.35% lower on Monday, leaving shares 5% above the key level. USAU stock has a 19.20 buy point from a cup base.

Industry: Mining – Non-Ferrous Metals

Link: https://www.zacks.com/commentary/2796527/4-non-ferrous-metal-mining-stocks-to-consider-from-a-thriving-industry

The prospects of the Zacks Mining – Non Ferrous industry appear promising at the moment, backed by the upward trajectory in metal prices. The demand for non-ferrous metals is expected to be supported by the energy-transition trend. The recent inclusion of silver, copper and uranium in the list of critical minerals underscores their growing strategic importance and will attract investment in the industry.

We suggest keeping a tab on companies like Southern Copper Corp., Lundin Mining Corp., Coeur Mining and Centrus Energy. These companies are focused on building reserves, technological investments, cost control and enhancing production efficiency, positioning them well to capitalize on the industry's growth potential.

About the Industry

The Zacks Mining – Non Ferrous industry comprises companies that produce non-ferrous metals, including copper, gold, silver, cobalt, molybdenum, zinc, aluminum and uranium. These metals are utilized by various industries, including aerospace, automotive, packaging, construction, machinery, electronics, transportation, jewelry, chemical and nuclear energy.

Mining is a long, complex and capital-intensive process. Significant exploration and development to evaluate the size of the deposit, followed by the assessment of ways to extract and process ore efficiently, safely and responsibly, precede the actual mining operations. Miners continuously seek opportunities to grow their reserves and resources through targeted near-mine exploration and business development. They strive to upgrade and improve the quality of their existing assets internally and through acquisitions.

What's Shaping the Future of the Mining – Non Ferrous Industry?

Improving Metal Prices to Aid Industry: Copper futures recently peaked at a four-week high of $5.1 per pound, up 25% in a year. Chilean producer Codelco offered record-high prices to Chinese buyers, a move that may signal growing prioritization of U.S. customers. Copper also gained support from expectations of further rate cuts by the U.S. Federal Reserve. This has boosted silver and gold prices as well.

Silver prices have surged 84% year to date and are currently at $53 per ounce, hovering near record highs. Since the past month, silver has been trending near all-time highs amid global economic uncertainties, prospects of lower interest rates and tightening supply. These factors have boosted gold as well, gaining 58.8% year to date and currently at $4,150 an ounce. Uranium prices recently retreated to $77 per pound after hitting a 14-month high of $84 last month as supply concerns have eased lately.

Adding to the bullish outlook, silver, copper and uranium were recently added to the U.S. Geological Survey's (USGS) critical minerals list, underscoring their strategic importance to the U.S. economy and national security. Industry players are dealing with depleting resources, declining supply in old mines and a lack of new mines. Development projects are inherently risky and capital-intensive. While demand has been strong, there will be an eventual deficit in metal supply, leading to a situation that will bolster metal prices. This, in turn, will favor the industry in the long run.

Efforts Underway to Sustain Margins Amid High Costs: The industry has been facing a shortage of skilled workforce lately, which has hiked wages. Industry players have also been grappling with escalating production costs, including electricity, water and materials, as well as higher freight expenses and supply-chain issues. Since the industry cannot control the prices of its products, it focuses on improving sales volumes, increasing operating cash flows and lowering unit net cash costs. Industry participants are opting for alternate energy sources to minimize fuel-price volatility and secure supply. Miners are now committed to cost-reduction strategies and digital innovation to drive operating efficiencies.

Strong Demand to Support Industry: The demand for non-ferrous metals will remain high in the future, given their wide use in primary sectors, including transportation, electricity, construction, telecommunication, energy and information technology. The demand for electric vehicles and renewable energy is expected to be a significant growth driver for metals like copper and nickel in the years to come. The plan to overhaul and upgrade the nation's infrastructure, and promote green policies, per the U.S. Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, will also require a massive amount of non-ferrous metals.

4 Mining – Non Ferrous Stocks to Keep a Tab On

Southern Copper: The company has the largest copper reserve in the industry and operates world-class assets in investment-grade countries, such as Mexico and Peru. The company's capital investment program for this decade runs to more than $15 billion. The major portion (around $10.3 billion) is earmarked for Peru as the country is the second-largest producer of copper. This includes investments in Tia Maria – Arequipa, Los Chancas – Apurimac and Michiquillay – Cajamarca projects in Peru.

The Tía María project is expected to produce 120,000 tons of SX- EW copper cathodes annually. The Los Chancas project is an open-pit mine with a combined operation of a concentrator and SX-EW processes. It is expected to produce 130,000 tons of copper and 7,500 tons of molybdenum annually, and is expected to start in 2030-2031. SCCO's Michiquillay is expected to become one of Peru's largest copper mines and will produce 225,000 tons of copper per year (along with by-products of molybdenum, gold and silver) for an expected mine life of more than 25 years.

Given its constant commitment to increasing low-cost production and growth investments, SCCO is well-poised to continue delivering an enhanced performance. SCCO shares have gained 46% so far this year.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company's fiscal 2025 earnings indicates year-over-year growth of 19.9%. The estimate has moved up 10% over the past 60 days and indicates a year-over-year rise of 19.9%. SCCO has a long-term estimated earnings growth rate of 20.6%. The company has a trailing four-quarter earnings surprise of around 6%, on average. SCCO currently sports a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).

Lundin Mining: The company's third-quarter 2025 copper production, revenues, EBITDA and earnings all exceeded results from the first and second quarters. The company generated more than $1 billion in revenues and delivered $383 million of adjusted operating cash flow. Consolidated copper cash cost of $1.61 per pound marks its lowest quarterly cost this year.

Lundin Mining also updated its full-year guidance to reflect strong operational performance, particularly at Caserones. The midpoint of consolidated copper production is increasing by 11,500 tons to 328,000 tons, with a new range of 319,000-337,000 tons. Additionally, improved performance at Caserones and Chapada has resulted in the lowering of its overall consolidated copper cash cost guidance to a range of $1.85-$2.00 /lb.

The company is continuing to advance its growth initiatives as part of its strategic aspirations to become a global top-ten copper producer and achieve copper production of more than 500,000 tons per year and gold production of more than 550,000 ounces per year. LUNMF shares have gained 111.7% year to date.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Vancouver, Canada-based LUNMF's fiscal 2025 earnings indicates a year-over-year improvement of 68.4%. The estimate has moved up 25.5% over the past 60 days. It has a long-term estimated earnings growth rate of 43.9%. The company currently carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).

Centrus Energy: The company currently has a $3.9-billion revenue backlog, which includes long-term sales contracts with major utilities through 2040. Centrus Energy is pioneering the development of a high-performance nuclear fuel component called High-Assay, Low-Enriched Uranium (HALEU), which is expected to be needed in the next few years to power both existing reactors and a new generation of advanced reactors to meet the world's growing need for carbon-free electricity.

The company recently unveiled ambitious plans to significantly expand its uranium enrichment plant in Piketon, OH, to boost the production of Low-Enriched Uranium and HALEU. This project will mark a significant step in restoring America's ability to enrich uranium at scale. Centrus Energy's multi-billion-dollar plan requires public and private investment and involves adding thousands of additional centrifuges at the plant to enable large-scale production. LEU shares have gained 281.6% so far this year.

Headquartered in Bethesda, MD, Centrus is a globally recognized supplier of Low-Enriched Uranium fuel. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fiscal 2025 earnings has moved up 6% over the past 60 days. The estimate indicates year-over-year growth of 2.5%. LEU has a trailing four-quarter earnings surprise of 327.7%, on average. The company currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).

Coeur Mining: The company recently inked an agreement to acquire New Gold that will create a new, 100% North American senior mining company. It will be placed among the top 10 largest precious metals companies and the top five largest silver producers globally. It will boast seven high-quality operations producing approximately 1.25 million gold equivalent ounces in 2026. This includes 20 million ounces of silver and 900,000 ounces of gold.

More than 80% of its revenues will stem from the US and Canada. The combined company is expected to generate approximately $3 billion of EBITDA and approximately $2 billion of free cash flow in 2026 at significantly lower overall costs and higher margins. This strong financial position is expected to accelerate investment in multiple high-return organic growth opportunities, including New Afton's K-Zone, brownfield exploration at Rainy River and across all of CDE's portfolio in the US, Mexico and Canada. The combined company will have silver representing 30% of total metals reserves. CDE shares have gained 183.1% so far this year.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the Chicago, IL-based company's fiscal 2025 earnings indicates a year-over-year improvement of 406%. The consensus estimate has moved up 9.3% over the past 60 days. The company currently carries a Zacks Rank of 3.

What Wall Street Has Been Saying

Analyst coverage on BHP Group has focused on recent adjustments to price targets and an overall neutral stance, reflecting a mix of optimism and caution in the market's view of the company. Here is a summary of the major viewpoints from the Street:

🐂 Bullish Takeaways

JPMorgan analyst Dominic O'Kane recently raised the firm's price target on BHP Group to 2,200 GBp from 2,160 GBp, maintaining a Neutral rating. This increase highlights some confidence in BHP's underlying fundamentals and an acknowledgement of successful execution despite a challenging market backdrop.
The bump in the price target reflects a recognition of BHP’s quality of operations and its ability to deliver consistent performance. This has been a key driver praised by analysts when sentiment leans positive.

🐻 Bearish Takeaways

JPMorgan, again through Dominic O'Kane, subsequently lowered the price target back down to 2,100 GBp from 2,200 GBp while retaining a Neutral rating. This action underscores ongoing reservations about BHP’s near-term upside potential, valuation, and macroeconomic uncertainty weighing on the sector.
The absence of any firm upgrades to an outright Buy or Overweight rating signals a degree of caution on Wall Street. Analysts appear to be waiting for clearer signs of growth momentum or positive catalysts before turning more constructive on the stock.

Overall, while analysts acknowledge BHP Group's operational strengths, recent revisions and cautious ratings indicate that further improvements in execution or external conditions may be required for more decisive positive sentiment around the stock’s valuation and future growth prospects.

ASX:BHP Community Fair Values as at Dec 2025What's in the News

Anglo American has rejected BHP's most recent takeover offer. The company emphasized that the bid was not preferable to its existing plan for a merger with Teck Resources. This continues a period of high-stakes negotiations and uncertainty surrounding BHP’s acquisition ambitions.
The High Court in London has ruled that BHP is legally liable for the 2015 Mariana dam disaster. The court found the company strictly responsible for both environmental damage and third-party claims. This decision could have significant financial and reputational implications for BHP in the long term.
The U.S. Department of the Interior has added copper, silver, and metallurgical coal, three of BHP's primary business lines, to its list of critical minerals. This policy shift may influence future U.S. trade regulations and could strengthen BHP’s strategic position globally.
BHP is considering reopening closed mines in the historic copper belt of Arizona. The company is encouraged by recent policy changes that boost the prospects for new exploration and production in the United States.

How This Changes the Fair Value For BHP Group

Simply Wall St Value Rating: ★★★★★☆

Overview: Zimplats Holdings Limited is involved in the production and sales of platinum group and associated metals in Zimbabwe, with a market capitalization of approximately A$1.86 billion.

Operations: Zimplats Holdings generates revenue primarily from the metals and mining sector, specifically gold and other precious metals, amounting to $826.59 million. The company’s financial performance is significantly influenced by its net profit margin trends over time.

Zimplats Holdings, a player in the metals and mining sector, has seen its earnings skyrocket by 393% over the past year, outpacing industry growth of 10%. Despite this impressive performance, its earnings have decreased by 42% annually over the last five years. The company’s net debt to equity ratio stands at a satisfactory 0.01%, indicating prudent financial management. Furthermore, Zimplats’ interest payments are comfortably covered with an EBIT coverage of 12 times. However, free cash flow remains negative and capital expenditures have been significant at A$439 million recently. These factors paint a mixed picture for potential investors considering future prospects.

BASF SE BASFY recently announced that it will offer licensing of its state-of-the-art polytetrahydrofuran (PolyTHF) 1800 production technology to clients and partners. BASF, being one of the leaders in the development of this technology, has three PolyTHF production assets globally. They are located in Caojing, China; Ludwigshafen, Germany; and Geismar, the United States.

The licensing aims to create significant value, not just for the company, but for its clients and partners too. The attractive proposition gives them access to innovation and R&D at lower costs and shortens delivery time.

BASFY’s proprietary PolyTHF technology is widely used in a range of textiles, including swimwear, sportswear, underwear, shirts and stretch jeans for its elastic spandex and elastane fibers.

The licensing will strengthen the company’s ties with its long-standing partners by unlocking value for them. Given the usefulness of the proprietary technology, the partners and BASFY will be able to nurture innovation and reshape the textile market.

The company’s shares have gained 19.5% over the past year against the industry’s 22.9% decline.

A bulk freighter was carrying more than a load of fluorspar when it pushed out of the St. Lawrence, Nfld., harbour in August, since it also signalled Canada Fluorspar Inc. had become North America’s only producer of a key mineral at a time when industries in Canada and the United States are scrambling for non-Chinese supply.

Chief executive and chair Willem Jacobs said restarting the company’s open pit mine could produce enough ore and jobs to last 30 years.

“It’s very seldom that you find industrial minerals with a mine life this long,” he said while on his way to the project site in southeast Newfoundland from South Africa this week. “The mineralogy is pretty consistent. There are other mines (worldwide) with higher grades, but they have other problems.”

The only other fluorspar mine owner in North America is Ares Strategic Mining Inc., which is in the process of restarting its Sheep Mine in Utah. Most producers shut down years ago as buyers switched to importing the mineral used to make everything from aluminum to lithium-ion batteries.

The project produces acid-grade fluorspar (acidspar), a high-purity form of the mineral. So far this year, Canada Fluorspar has processed and shipped about 8,500 tonnes to an unnamed, but well-known U.S. client.

Acidspar is an essential material for technology, industrial and defence supply chains. Global supply is tight, with China accounting for about 80 per cent of production, but it has cut exports in the past year, prompting countries such as Canada and the United States to seek domestic supplies.

Fluorspar was among 12 minerals added to the federal government’s list of critical minerals in this year’s budget, which also set aside $2 billion for a critical minerals sovereign fund to support Canadian projects. It provides equity investments, loan guarantees and offtake agreements to help develop domestic mining and processing capacity.

Jacobs said he’s looking into the supports, but so far does not believe his company qualifies. Meanwhile, he’s trying to raise $100 million.

“It will probably be a primary investor and a co-investor,” he said, adding he’d also like the government to be on board. “The reaction is slow, but I’m confident we can work something out. Government moves more slowly than the private sector, but that’s the correct approach because they don’t want to replace private money.”

The St. Lawrence mine went into receivership in 2022, leaving a trail of unpaid bills. Jacobs bought the assets in 2023, some 30-plus years after the former Barrick Mining Corp. chief operating officer became interested in fluorspar back, reviewing global supplies in South Africa, China and elsewhere.

In June that year, the court approved the $25‑million sale of the company’s assets to Fluorspar Holdings Pte. Ltd., a subsidiary of South African-based African Minerals Exploration & Development Funds Sicar SCA. Jacobs is now the majority owner.

He said there are now about 270 people employed on the project, but there is significant work to be done before production can reach full scale.

“We’re busy mining and there’s a lot of waste that has to be removed,” he said. “The previous owners mined themselves into a corner.”

The old owners took shortcuts to get the best ore out quickly, leaving less valuable material that must be cleaned before proper mining can be resumed, Jacobs said, adding the mine’s geology is “world class.”

Canada Fluorspar is spending about $4 million a month to get enough ore ready for its plant. The plan is to reach full production of about 180,000 tonnes of acidspar concentrate in 2027. He’s projecting production of more than 100,000 tonnes in 2026.

The U.S. is expected to be the primary market for the company’s fluorspar given its proximity, he said. Other potential markets include Europe, India and Japan.

Jacobs has more than 30 years of experience in global mining and industrial minerals. Before Barrick, he held leadership roles at Randgold Resources Ltd. and Imerys SA, and has led large-scale operations across Africa and the Middle East, overseeing complex projects involving exploration, mine development and operational restructuring.

But his job now is to manage and revive the St. Lawrence mine, and he believes his vast experience and technical know-how are things the previous owner lacked.

“Your on-site technical capabilities have to be very substantial. To process fluorspar, you need to get all of your recovery; otherwise, you’re not going to make money,” he said. “If you want to look at where things went wrong, it was the absolute lack of technical knowledge. It’s atrocious the technical decisions that were made.”

Upgrades have been made so that all ships will be loaded at the site’s port rather than being trucked to another port. Jacobs said he hopes to add an underground mine in a few years.

The fluorspar mine is hugely important for St. Lawrence since it once employed around 250 people. Jacobs hopes there will be jobs for 300.

“I can tell you now it’s going to be the basis of a global industry,” he said. “First of all, it’s important for Newfoundland and this town. Ninety per cent of the employees come from the town and the Burin Peninsula.”

As far as he’s concerned, there are only two industries that can turn countries around, and that’s mining and oil and gas.

“They build hospitals, they built roads, they have enormous economic engines,” he said.

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – November 28, 2025) – Lara Exploration Ltd. (TSXV: LRA) ("Lara" or the "Company") is pleased to report that the purchase and sale agreement with Atlantica do Brasil Mineração Ltda. ("Atlantica") announced on October 14, 2025, has closed.

The Company's wholly owned Brazilian subsidiary has now acquired an exploration license adjacent to Lara's Planalto Copper-Gold Project in the Carajás Mineral Province in northern Brazil. The 345-hectare license lies along strike from and has the potential to add to Lara's Silica Cap resource.

On closing, the Company issued 164,777 common shares to Atlantica at a deemed price of CAD$2.2758 per share, such shares to be subject to a voluntary hold period of one year following closing.

Lara has agreed to drill a minimum of 2,000 metres and to prepare a NI-43-101-compliant Technical Report ("TR") by the end of 2027. Under the terms agreed with Atlantica, Lara will make the following additional staged payments, based predominantly upon exploration success:

By December 2027, Lara will pay a Success Fee equivalent to US$0.06/lb of copper contained in Measured and Indicated Resources in the TR.

By December 2028, Lara will pay an additional Success Fee on the same terms on any additional Measured and Indicated Resources included in an updated TR.

On any additional Measured and Indicated Resources estimated in any subsequent TR after the end of 2028, the Success Fee will be calculated at a rate of US$0.08/lb of copper.

The Success Fee can be paid in installments annually, in either cash or Lara shares at Lara's discretion, with a maximum of US$1.25 million due in any one year. There is a minimum payment of US$500,000 regardless of the resource size discovered due at the end of 2027. It is a condition of the acquisition that Atlantica will not become an insider of Lara as a result of the receipt of shares of Lara under the Agreement, and Lara will not issue more than 5,000,000 shares to Atlantica without the prior approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

Atlantica and an underlying vendor will each be entitled to a 1% net smelter return royalty on any production derived from the license.

An influential City group is urging investors to oppose plans that would guarantee a multimillion pound share bonanza to executives at Anglo American as it finalises a $33bn merger with Canada’s Teck Resources.

Sky News understands that the Investment Association's IVIS voting advisory service has issued next month's vote on amendments to Anglo's long-term incentive awards with a 'red-top' alert – its strongest possible warning against the resolution.

The development comes days after rival miner BHP approached Anglo for a second time about a potential takeover, before abruptly withdrawing.

Anglo, the mining group which owns De Beers, wants to amend its share awards to guarantee that they would pay out at least 62.5% of their value if the merger completes.

Institutional Shareholder Services, which has recommended that shareholders vote in favour of the merger itself, has also recommended opposition to the bonus scheme amendments.

"The amending of awards to reflect M&A factors not envisioned when the awards were first granted is not considered inappropriate in the UK market per se," ISS said in a report to clients.

"However, in this case, the amending of in-flight LTIP awards in order to ensure a minimum payout linked to the completion of the merger transaction is.

"Indeed, the linking of variable incentives to the completion of transactions is not considered good practice, which is itself recognised by the company."

The IA declined to comment further on the red-top alert.

A spokesman for Anglo American said the proposed changes would drive "even greater alignment with shareholders' interests".

If you have ever wondered whether Southern Copper is trading at a fair price right now, you are not alone. It is exactly the right question to be asking as the stock continues to draw attention.
Southern Copper’s share price has climbed an impressive 49.6% year-to-date and gained 41.5% over the past year. The stock saw a brief decline of -5.3% in the last month before rebounding with a 7.6% gain this week.
Recent news around surging copper demand, global supply constraints, and renewed interest in infrastructure and electrification have all played into the volatility and upward momentum. Headlines have focused on the metal’s key role in the energy transition. These factors have kept Southern Copper in the spotlight as investors re-evaluate growth prospects and risks across the mining sector.
Despite this excitement, Southern Copper currently scores a 0 out of 6 on our valuation checks, meaning it is not undervalued in any major way according to our primary metrics. Let’s break down what those numbers mean, explore different valuation approaches, and show how a more holistic view could provide further insight by the end of this article.

Southern Copper scores just 0/6 on our valuation checks. See what other red flags we found in the full valuation breakdown.

Approach 1: Southern Copper Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Analysis

A Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model estimates what a company is worth by projecting its future cash flows and then discounting them back to today’s value, using a reasonable rate to account for time and risk. This approach helps investors understand what they would be willing to pay for Southern Copper today based on expected performance.

According to the DCF analysis, Southern Copper’s current Free Cash Flow stands at $3.44 billion. Analysts have projected Free Cash Flow to rise steadily, with an estimated $5.10 billion by the end of 2029. While direct analyst estimates are available up to five years into the future, beyond that, the figures are extrapolated using established growth trends. This projection is intended to offer a holistic long-term outlook on the company’s cash generation potential.

Based on these calculations, the estimated intrinsic value per share for Southern Copper is $126.42. Right now, the DCF model suggests that the stock is trading about 5.2 percent above this fair value estimate, indicating a slightly overvalued position at present market levels.

Result: ABOUT RIGHT

Head to the Valuation section of our Company Report for more details on how we arrive at this Fair Value for Southern Copper.

Approach 2: Southern Copper Price vs Earnings

The Price-to-Earnings (PE) ratio is a commonly used metric for valuing profitable companies like Southern Copper because it relates a company’s share price directly to its bottom-line earnings. This multiple is widely used by investors to quickly gauge whether a stock is fairly priced relative to how much profit it is generating.

A “normal” or fair PE ratio depends on expectations for future earnings growth and the perceived riskiness of a business. Stocks with higher expected growth or lower risk often command higher PE ratios, while those with more uncertainty or slower growth tend to trade at a discount.

Southern Copper currently trades at a PE ratio of 28.5x. For context, the Metals and Mining industry average is 22.1x, while the average for close peers is about 25.3x. This suggests the company is trading at a noticeable premium to both the broader sector and its immediate competitors.

However, Simply Wall St’s proprietary Fair Ratio for Southern Copper is 23.6x. In contrast to basic industry or peer comparisons, the Fair Ratio incorporates company-specific factors such as earnings growth potential, profit margins, size, and business risks, providing a fuller picture of what’s really justified.

With Southern Copper’s current PE ratio standing at 28.5x compared to a Fair Ratio of 23.6x, the difference indicates the stock is trading above what this tailored model deems reasonable based on its underlying fundamentals.

On Simply Wall St’s Community page, millions of investors use Narratives to transparently share their views, compare with others, and see what fair value means through different lenses.

By tracking how your Narrative’s fair value compares to the current price, you can make more confident decisions on whether to buy, hold, or sell. Narratives are updated dynamically to reflect the latest information, such as news, results, or shifts in market sentiment, offering you an up-to-date and holistic outlook.

For example, some users expect Southern Copper’s share price could climb as high as $128.70 if growth catalysts materialize, while the most cautious see a value as low as $66.63 given potential risks. This shows there is no single “right answer,” only the Narrative that fits your view.

A month has gone by since the last earnings report for FMC (FMC). Shares have lost about 10.2% in that time frame, underperforming the S&P 500.

But investors have to be wondering, will the recent negative trend continue leading up to its next earnings release, or is FMC due for a breakout? Before we dive into how investors and analysts have reacted as of late, let's take a quick look at its most recent earnings report in order to get a better handle on the important drivers.

FMC’s Q3 Earnings Increase, Sales Decline on Lower Prices

FMC reported a loss of $4.52 per share for third-quarter 2025. This compares unfavorably to earnings of 52 cents in the year-ago quarter.Barring one-time items, adjusted earnings per share were 89 cents, up from 69 cents reported a year ago.Revenues were $542 million in the quarter, down around 49% from the year-ago quarter’s levels. Excluding India, revenues were $961 million, down 10%.Third-quarter revenues decreased primarily due to one-time commercial actions taken in India to position the business for sale. Excluding that, third-quarter revenues still witnessed a decline of 10% from the prior-year quarter due to a 6% decrease in price from the decline linked to price reductions in specific "cost-plus" contracts with certain diamide partners, reflecting lower manufacturing costs and the other half stemmed from competitive pressure. The volumes in the core portfolio also decreased due to increased competition.

Regional Sales Performance

In North America, sales increased 4% year over year to $244 million in the quarter. Sales in North America increased as a result of price gains in branded products and higher volume, including Adastrio fungicide based on fluindapyr. It topped the consensus estimate of $225 million.

Latin American sales saw an 8% year-over-year decrease to $463 million in the reported quarter. Sales in Latin America suffered from increased pressure from generics, leading to lower volume and price decline of branded products. It missed the consensus estimate of $516 million.In Asia, excluding India, revenues declined 47% from the previous year to $99 million. Sales declined due to lower pricing, the removal of India and reduced volumes. It missed the consensus estimate of $153 million.EMEA experienced an 11% year-over-year sales increase to $155 million in the reported quarter. The growth was fueled by significant volume increases, especially in the growth portfolio from branded Cyazypyr offerings. The successful launch of Isoflex in Great Britain also drove sales. It lagged the consensus estimate of $158 million.

Financials

The company had cash and cash equivalents of $497.7 million at the end of the quarter. Long-term debt was roughly $3.27 billion.

Q4 Guidance

FMC expects fourth-quarter revenues (excluding India) to range between $1.12 billion and $1.22 billion, implying a 4% decline at the midpoint compared to 2024. Adjusted EBITDA is forecasted between $265 million and $305 million, indicating a 16% decline at the midpoint. Adjusted earnings per share are projected to be $1.14 to $1.36, indicating a 30% year-over-year decrease at the midpoint.

How Have Estimates Been Moving Since Then?

Since the earnings release, investors have witnessed a downward trend in estimates review.

The consensus estimate has shifted -27.57% due to these changes.

VGM Scores

At this time, FMC has a poor Growth Score of F, however its Momentum Score is doing a bit better with a D. Charting a somewhat similar path, the stock has a score of C on the value side, putting it in the middle 20% for value investors.

Overall, the stock has an aggregate VGM Score of F. If you aren't focused on one strategy, this score is the one you should be interested in.

Outlook

Estimates have been broadly trending downward for the stock, and the magnitude of these revisions indicates a downward shift. It's no surprise FMC has a Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell). We expect a below average return from the stock in the next few months.

Barrick Mining Corporation B successfully completed its divestiture of the Hemlo Gold Mine in Canada to Carcetti Capital Corp. The consideration totaled $1.09 billion, including $875 million in cash, $50 million in HMC shares and a production and tiered gold price-linked cash payment structure of up to $165 million. While the cash and shares were received on closing, the structured payment arrangement will begin in January 2027 for a five-year term.

On the recent completion of the divestiture of the Alturas Project in Chile to Boroo Pte. Ltd, the company received an upfront cash payment of $50 million. Barrick has also been granted 0.5% net smelter return royalty on gold and silver produced from the Project as a part of the transaction. It will terminate once 2 million ounces of gold and gold-equivalent have been produced, with Boroo having the option to repurchase the royalty within four years from closing for $10 million.

In line with the expectations, the Hemlo deal was concluded within the fourth quarter of 2025. The proceeds from the divestitures will now be beneficial in strengthening the balance sheet and returning capital to its shareholders.

Hemlo, which produced 143,000 ounces of gold last year, was Barrick’s last operating mine in Canada, a key region for Barrick. With the closure of its operations with Hemlo, Barrick plans to unlock upcoming opportunities in the region through a number of early-stage projects and exploration targets. The divestment enables Barrick to access opportunities and operate world-class gold and copper mines in the country.

B’s shares have gained 138.5% over the past year against the industry’s 110% rise.

With Teck Resources trading only slightly below analyst price targets and carrying a substantial intrinsic discount, the question remains: is there hidden value in the stock, or is the market already reflecting its future prospects?

Most Popular Narrative: 4.2% Undervalued

Teck Resources’ most widely followed narrative points to a fair value above its recent close, implying the market still underestimates the company’s potential. The spread between current price and this fair value is small, yet the analysis suggests overlooked drivers could fuel upside.

The sanctioned Highland Valley Copper Mine Life Extension project and ongoing optimization or debottlenecking at QB are set to double Teck’s copper production by decade’s end. This would enable the company to capitalize on the accelerating demand for copper from global electrification and energy transition, which should materially increase revenue and long-term earnings growth.

Read the complete narrative.

Want to know what’s really powering this narrative? The model banks on a huge jump in copper output and a margin surge not seen in previous cycles. The punchline: it all hinges on certain numbers and assumptions that could be game-changers for Teck’s valuation. Ready to see what could send the stock soaring? Don’t miss the underlying details driving this fair value target.

Result: Fair Value of $62.44 (UNDERVALUED)

Have a read of the narrative in full and understand what’s behind the forecasts.

However, persistent project delays or another slump in copper prices could undermine Teck Resources’ growth story and shift investor sentiment quickly.

Find out about the key risks to this Teck Resources narrative.

Another View: Market Multiples Raise Caution

While the fair value discussion points to an undervalued stock, the lens of price-to-earnings tells a different story. Teck Resources trades at 23.5 times earnings, higher than both the Canadian industry average of 19.3 and the fair ratio of 17.7. This premium suggests investors are already pricing in some future upside. However, it raises the question of whether there is enough margin for error.

FMC

Simply Wall St Value Rating: ★★★★★☆

Overview: FMC is a global agricultural sciences company that provides innovative solutions for crop protection, with a market cap of approximately $13.50 billion.

Operations: FMC’s revenue is primarily derived from its Innovative Solutions segment, with recent figures showing a gross profit margin of 38.15%. The company has experienced fluctuations in net income margin, which reached -13.80% in the latest period ending September 2025. Operating expenses and non-operating expenses have been significant cost components affecting profitability over time.

PE: -3.5x

FMC, a smaller player in the U.S. market, recently reported a challenging third quarter with sales dropping to US$542.2 million from last year’s US$1.07 billion and a net loss of US$569.3 million compared to prior profits. Despite these setbacks, insider confidence is evident as key figures have been purchasing shares throughout 2025, signaling potential optimism for future growth prospects amid expected earnings growth of 66% annually. However, funding remains risky due to reliance on external borrowing, and dividend reductions reflect ongoing financial adjustments.

FMC Share price vs Value as at Nov 2025Herbalife

Simply Wall St Value Rating: ★★★★★☆

Overview: Herbalife is a global nutrition company that develops and sells dietary supplements, weight management products, and personal care items, with a market capitalization of $1.46 billion.

Operations: Herbalife generates revenue across several key markets, including India and the United States, with significant contributions from other regions as well. The company experienced fluctuations in its gross profit margin, which was 50.51% in late 2014 and shifted to 45.28% by mid-2025. Operating expenses primarily consist of general and administrative costs, consistently forming a substantial part of the company’s expenditures over time.

PE: 4.3x

Herbalife, a company with a strong presence in the nutrition industry, is navigating challenges amidst its small cap status. Recent insider confidence was evident as they increased their shareholdings over the past quarter, signaling potential optimism about future prospects. Despite earnings forecasted to decline by 2.5% annually over three years and interest payments not well covered by earnings, Herbalife’s Liftoff product line continues to thrive in the growing US$41.4 billion energy drink market projected for 2033. The company’s recent expansion into new flavors and its investment of US$7 million in a new research facility highlight ongoing efforts to innovate and maintain quality standards. However, external borrowing remains their primary funding source, which carries higher risk compared to customer deposits.

HLF Share price vs Value as at Nov 2025Sally Beauty Holdings

Simply Wall St Value Rating: ★★★★★☆

Overview: Sally Beauty Holdings operates as a specialty retailer and distributor of professional beauty supplies with two main segments, Sally Beauty Supply and Beauty Systems Group, and has a market capitalization of approximately $1.39 billion.

PE: 8.2x

Sally Beauty Holdings, a smaller company in the beauty sector, recently reported annual sales of US$3.70 billion, slightly down from last year.

The company repurchased 1.68 million shares for $20.45 million between July and September 2025 as part of a long-term buyback program totaling 36.72 million shares since August 2017, reflecting insider confidence in its future prospects despite high debt levels and reliance on external borrowing for funding needs.

VANCOUVER — A second major proxy advisory service has recommended shareholders vote in favour of the deal to combine Teck Resources Ltd. and Anglo American plc.

Institutional Shareholder Services, Inc. said Wednesday that the arrangement makes strategic sense and that there's additional potential upside through the merger.

The endorsement comes after Glass Lewis & Co. said on Nov. 21 that the combined company would have a stronger financial footing and make it a more resilient producer.

The recommendations come ahead of a special meeting of shareholders on Dec. 9 to decide on the proposal.

The companies have said the deal would create a $70-billion copper mining powerhouse with headquarters and top executives based in Vancouver, though Industry Minister Mélanie Joly has said the government is looking to see more benefits to Canada.

The proposal is subject to review under the Investment Canada Act, which can be used to block deals deemed against the national interest.

Jonathan Price, president and CEO of Teck, said in a statement that the recommendations further affirm the company's view that the merger is the best past forward.

This report by The Canadian Press was first published Nov. 26, 2025.

The Canadian Press

By David Ljunggren and Divya Rajagopal

OTTAWA (Reuters) -Canada will submit the proposed merger of Anglo American and Teck Resources to a national security review, Industry Minister Melanie Joly said on Wednesday.

Joly also ‌said Ottawa would come to a final decision in the coming months.

"The national security review for any ‌transaction is always part of the process… so we're following the process," she told reporters from South Korea via a teleconference.

Shares of Teck were up 1% in midday trade in Toronto. Anglo American shares closed up 2.⁠4% at the London ‌Stock Exchange on Wednesday.

The proposed $53 billion deal, one of the biggest in the mining industry, would create a copper ‍giant. But the deal, due to its size, needs a nod from several regulators, including in Canada.

The top leadership of both companies has proposed to move the combined headquarters to Vancouver and maintain a dual listing. However, Ottawa has ‌asked for more, such as investment in the country and job security.

The national security review, according to the Investment Canada Act, would look at the potential impact the transaction would have on the critical minerals and critical mineral supply chains. Copper is considered a critical mineral by Canada.

Teck also produces germanium, which is ⁠also on the critical mineral list. Canada amended the ICA in 2024 to tighten rules around any large foreign acquisition of its domestic companies and the potential impact on national security.

Though the Anglo-Teck merger primarily combines the ‍companies' copper assets ⁠in Chile, Teck owns the Highland Valley copper mine in Canada.

Teck shareholders are scheduled to vote on the merger on December 9. On ⁠Wednesday, proxy advisory firm ISS recommended that Anglo American and Teck shareholders vote in favor of the ‌deal.

Recommendations Highlight Significant Benefits and Value Creation Opportunity for Teck Shareholders

Teck’s Board of Directors Unanimously Recommends Teck Shareholders Vote “FOR” the Merger TODAY

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Teck Resources Limited (TSX: TECK.A and TECK.B, NYSE: TECK) (“Teck”) today announced that independent proxy advisory firms Institutional Shareholder Services, Inc. (“ISS”) and Glass Lewis & Co. (“Glass Lewis”) have recommended that Teck shareholders vote “FOR” the Company’s merger of equals (the “Merger”) with Anglo American plc (“Anglo American”).

In their reports dated November 26, 2025, and November 21, 2025, respectively, ISS and Glass Lewis stated:

ISS: “The arrangement makes strategic sense in light of the anticipated synergies, strategic benefits, and opportunity for additional upside through ownership in the combined company. The universe of potential buyers is limited, the board actively explored alternative transaction structures in order to maximize shareholder value, shareholders are expected to benefit from increased liquidity and stronger financial position for the combined company, and the market reaction has been positive.”
Glass Lewis: “Overall, the strategic merits of the combination appear well supported by the scale, asset quality and long-term copper growth profile of the combined company. If successfully executed, the merger positions Anglo Teck as a financially stronger and more resilient producer with meaningful upside from operational integration and future development opportunities…On balance, we believe the transaction presents a compelling strategic opportunity for Teck shareholders.”

“The Teck Board has determined that a merger of equals with Anglo American is the best path forward for Teck shareholders and all stakeholders,” said Jonathan Price, President and CEO. “The recent recommendations from ISS and Glass Lewis further affirm this view. This merger is a unique opportunity to build a new global critical minerals champion headquartered in Canada with increased scale, a world-class portfolio of copper and critical minerals assets, and enormous growth potential. We are confident the transaction will drive significant value creation and encourage all Teck shareholders to vote for the merger.”

Teck Shareholders Encouraged to Vote Ahead of the Proxy DeadlineTeck shareholders of record as of the close of business on October 20, 2025, should vote “FOR” the Merger now and can advance vote up to the proxy voting deadline of 11:00 a.m. PST, December 5, 2025.

The Toronto Stock Exchange set a second-straight record close on Wednesday as Canada's federal government announced new aid measures for the steel and lumber industries as it moves to make this nation more independent of trade with the United States, even as Canadians poured $61 billion into U.S. securities over recent months and the leaders of both nations are slated to meet tomorrow.

On business relations between Canada and the U.S., BNN Bloomberg noted a new poll from the Angus Reid Institute that shows three in five Canadians say the country should limit foreign investment. Only a quarter said they would generally welcome it. BNN said Canada's federal government recently delayed the proposed Teck and Anglo American deal, with the government pushing for the $70 billion merger to be legally domiciled in Canada. It cited Industry Minister Melanie Joly saying Ottawa wants to see longer-term commitments to Canada if the deal can go forward.

This comes as BNN Bloomberg in a separate report noted new data from Statistics Canada that says investors funneled $61 billion into U.S. securities over the first half of 2025. BNN noted the securities included treasury bills, notes and bonds and are considered low risk as they are backed by the U.S. government's financial health. Wednesday's report said investors poured $38.1 billion in U.S. equities and investment fund shares alongside $22.3 in U.S. corporate and government bonds from February to June. Only $1.3 billion was invested in all other non-U.S. foreign securities combined with bond purchases offsetting divestments in money market instruments and equities.

BNN noted the agency said over three quarters of acquisitions occurred in February and March when Canadian households, businesses and government grappled with high levels of uncertainty over Canada's economic relationship with the United States. It also noted Canadian investors continued to increase their holdings of U.S. assets, adding $31.9 billion in equities and investment fund shares, government and corporate bonds and money market instruments during July and August.

While Canadians were investing in U.S. portfolio assets, BNN noted foreign investors were reducing their exposure to Canadian securities. It cited the agency saying foreign acquisitions of Canadian securities declined steadily resulting in a net decrease of $22.4 billion from February to May. But foreign investors rekindled their demand for Canadian securities adding $31.9 billion in equities and investment fund shares, government and corporate bonds and money market instruments in the months of July and August. The report noted net purchases totaled $49.0 billion, more than offsetting the cumulative divestment of $22.4 billion in the first half of the year. The acquisition of foreign securities by Canadian investors and the divestment in Canadian securities by foreign investors combined generated a net outflow of funds from the Canadian economy totaling $84.7 billion during the first half of 2025, the BNN report said.

The federal government on Wednesday moved to help and protect Canada's steel and lumber industries against U.S. tariffs, it is further limiting foreign steel imports from countries without a free trade agreement with Canada from 50% to 20% of 2024 levels. It will also cut freight rates to ship steel and lumber across Canada by 50%, from the spring of 2026.

Prime Minister Mark Carney was asked about tomorrow's proposed announcement of a Memorandum of Understanding with Alberta around an oil-pipeline project to the North Coast. According to Carney, the announcement will be about "much more than one thing". Fundamentally, he said, it is about building the Canadian economy and making Canada more independent and more sustainable. "So I would suggest that we wait until the full announcement is made tomorrow," Carney added.

Of note, Carney said he will likely meet with President Donald Trump tomorrow at an event related to the 2026 World Cup tournament of football, which will have Canada and the United States as host nations. "I don't want to over dramatize it," Carney said. "So I would repeat that we are ready to re-engage on those [trade and tariff talks] when the United States wants to re-engage."

Of commodities today, gold traded higher late afternoon Wednesday, buoyed by rising expectations the Federal Reserve will again cut interest rates next month. Gold for February delivery was up $19.10 to US$4,196.40 per ounce.

West Texas Intermediate closed up despite high supply and an increasing possibility of a peace deal to end Russia's war on Ukraine, while a report showed a rise in U.S. inventories last week. WTI crude oil for January delivery closed up $0.70 to settle at US$58.65 per barrel while January Brent crude was last seen up US$0.59 to US$63.07.

Whilst it may not be a huge deal, we thought it was good to see that the Forsys Metals Corp. (TSE:FSY) Independent Director, Pierfranco Malpenga, recently bought CA$96k worth of stock, for CA$0.28 per share. Although the purchase is not a big one, increasing their shareholding by only 8.6%, it can be interpreted as a good sign.

The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At Forsys Metals

In the last twelve months, the biggest single purchase by an insider was when Director Stefano Roma bought CA$2.8m worth of shares at a price of CA$0.50 per share. So it's clear an insider wanted to buy, even at a higher price than the current share price (being CA$0.28). Their view may have changed since then, but at least it shows they felt optimistic at the time. In our view, the price an insider pays for shares is very important. It is generally more encouraging if they paid above the current price, as it suggests they saw value, even at higher levels.

While Forsys Metals insiders bought shares during the last year, they didn't sell. The chart below shows insider transactions (by companies and individuals) over the last year. If you click on the chart, you can see all the individual transactions, including the share price, individual, and the date!

Forsys Metals is not the only stock that insiders are buying. For those who like to find small cap companies at attractive valuations, this free list of growing companies with recent insider purchasing, could be just the ticket.

Insider Ownership

Many investors like to check how much of a company is owned by insiders. We usually like to see fairly high levels of insider ownership. Insiders own 7.1% of Forsys Metals shares, worth about CA$4.7m, according to our data. We do generally prefer see higher levels of insider ownership.

So What Does This Data Suggest About Forsys Metals Insiders?

The recent insider purchases are heartening. We also take confidence from the longer term picture of insider transactions. However, we note that the company didn't make a profit over the last twelve months, which makes us cautious. We would certainly prefer see higher levels of insider ownership but analysis of the insider transactions suggests that Forsys Metals insiders are expecting a bright future. So these insider transactions can help us build a thesis about the stock, but it's also worthwhile knowing the risks facing this company. At Simply Wall St, we've found that Forsys Metals has 4 warning signs (2 shouldn't be ignored!) that deserve your attention before going any further with your analysis.

(Bloomberg) — BHP Group has walked away from a fresh takeover approach for Anglo American Plc, ending an unexpected and short-lived attempt by the world’s largest miner to thwart a planned tie-up between its smaller rival and Canada’s Teck Resources Ltd.

BHP confirmed on Monday that it had held preliminary discussions with Anglo, but said it was now “no longer considering a combination of the two companies,” and would focus on its own existing portfolio.
