Barrick Gold Corp (GOLD US) $US19.94

Canadian miner GOLD has underperformed NEM this year, which is frustrating, but it remains well-placed as we head towards 2025. In August, GOLD disappointed the market when they reported lower than expected which had a negative impact on costs - total preliminary output of 940,000 ounces of gold in the three months ended March 31, was below the 984,000 ounces expected, plus Barrick expects all-in-sustaining costs (AISC) to be about 7-9% higher than the previous quarter. We are considering whether NEM offers better risk/reward moving forward.

Barrick Gold Corp (GOLD US) $US19.89

Barrick is our stock of choice for overseas exposure to precious metals. It delivered in 2024, bouncing well over 50% from its early 2024 low—a very similar pattern to EVN. Like EVN, Barrick also has a growing runway for Copper output, while an AISC of $US1,474 looks good, with prices above $US2,600. We like the company and its prospects, but the question is whether our exposure is too large at this stage of the cycle.

Barrick Gold Corp (GOLD US) $US15.51

As touched on earlier, Barrick disappointed the market this week with its FY23 result, which is likely to weigh on the stock over the coming weeks/months. While we continue to like the scale of Barrick and the quality of their operations, we are questioning the size (7%) of our current position in the International Equities Portfolio at a time when investors are getting a reality check towards their dovish bets on rate cuts through 2024.
