Newmont (NEM) stock drops 5.6% as CME margin hike jolts gold and silver

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 23:56 ET — Market closed Newmont Corporation shares slid on Monday, closing down 5.6% at $99.81 after a sharp pullback in precious metals hit miners across the board.

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 00:34 ET — Market closed Barrick Mining Corp shares closed down 4.7% at $44.02 on Monday, after trading between $43.30 and $44.93.

Silver tops $80, then plunges as Musk flags China export curbs and CME tightens trading rules

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 23:29 ET — Market closed Parker-Hannifin Corp (NYSE:PH) shares finished modestly higher on Monday, edging up 0.3% to $890.55 in year-end trading.
