New York, Jan 27, 2026, 09:17 (EST) — Premarket
B2Gold’s shares on the U.S. market ticked up 0.2% to $5.35 in premarket action Tuesday, following a roughly 1% gain to $5.34 at Monday’s close. (StockAnalysis)
Gold has been leading the charge. Spot gold hit an all-time high of $5,110.50 an ounce on Monday and was last trading roughly 2% higher at $5,077.22 as investors sought safety amid rising uncertainty. “Central banks remain strong buyers,” noted Ryan McIntyre, president of Sprott Inc. (Reuters)
Mining shares followed suit. Newmont climbed 3% Monday, Barrick Mining gained 2.3%, and Kinross plus Agnico Eagle also pushed higher, Reuters reported. “It is difficult to see what really forces this market to roll over,” said Fawad Razaqzada, market analyst at City Index. (Reuters)
The Federal Reserve kicks off its two-day policy meeting Tuesday, wrapping up with a rate announcement Wednesday afternoon. Traders are nearly certain rates will hold steady, with CME FedWatch data cited by Reuters showing a 97% probability of no change. Gold’s outlook hinges on rate moves since it offers no yield, making it more attractive when interest rates dip. (Reuters)
B2Gold, based in Vancouver, operates gold mines across Canada, Mali, Namibia, and the Philippines. The company plans to report its fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 results, along with 2026 guidance, after North American markets close on Feb. 18. A conference call is scheduled for Feb. 19, according to a recent filing. (Sec)
The report will refocus attention on costs. Investors will closely watch for any changes in all-in sustaining costs, a key industry measure of the expense to produce an ounce and maintain mine operations.
Miners, however, can slide quickly if bullion weakens. A stronger dollar, an unexpected hawkish Fed move, or profit-taking in gold might weigh on shares that already reflect higher margins.
Up next is Wednesday, when the Fed will release its policy statement at 2:00 p.m. ET, with a press conference set for 2:30 p.m. ET. (Federal Reserve)
