Newmont’s Wild Ride: Gold Boom Propels Stock to Record Highs, Then Earnings Jolt – What’s Next for NEM?
Newmont shares hit a 52-week high near $98.60 in mid-October 2025 as gold topped $4,300/oz, briefly pushing its market cap above $100 billion. The stock then fell about 8–9% after gold prices pulled back sharply, trading in the mid-$80s by Oct. 24. Newmont beat Q3 earnings estimates but warned of weaker Q4 cash flow, sending shares down further after hours. Analyst outlooks remain bullish but caution over short-term volatility persists.
