Gold Miners Retreat After Bullion Slips As US-China Agree To Framework Of A Trade Agreement

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on CBS’s “Face the Nation” that the 100% tariffs that Trump had threatened earlier are “effectively off the table.”

Newmont Corp.’s (NEM) shares fell over 5.4% in extended trading on Thursday after the gold miner cautioned about a hit to its fourth-quarter free cash flow due to higher costs.The free cash flow outlook also took the shine away from a third-quarter profit beat, aided by higher gold prices and its cost-saving initiatives.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Newmont’s Q4 Cash Flow To Take A Hit From Higher Yanacocha Spending</h2>“Compared to the previous quarter, fourth-quarter free cash flow is expected to be adversely impacted by the continued increase in spending on construction of the Yanacocha water treatment facilities,” the company said in a statement. It is also expected to incur costs related to layoffs during the third quarter.The company posted adjusted third-quarter earnings of $1.71 per share, topping Wall Street’s estimate of $1.45 per share. Its quarterly sales of $5.52 billion also beat estimates of $5.30 billion, according to Fiscal.ai data.Newmont’s average realized gold prices jumped to $3,539 per ounce from $2,518 per ounce a year earlier, aided by the recent rally in bullion prices. Higher gold prices helped the company offset a 15% drop in production to 1.42 million ounces, due to lower ore grades, maintenance at its Penasquito and Lihir projects, and the completion of mining at the Subika project in Ghana.The company added that its 2025 all-in sustaining cost per ounce projections remain unchanged, as improvements from favorable macroeconomic conditions and its cost-savings initiatives are largely offset by higher royalties, production taxes, and costs associated with profit-sharing agreements in a stronger gold price environment.<h2 class="st-heading-2">What Is Retail Thinking?</h2>Retail sentiment on Stocktwits about <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/NEM">Newmont</a> was in the ‘extremely bullish’ territory at the time of writing.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:793/103;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/NEM_Oct_23_JPG_3f64eea167.webp" alt="NEM’s Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 10:30 p.m. ET on Oct. 23, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits" width="793" height="103"><figcaption>NEM’s Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 10:30 p.m. ET on Oct. 23, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>Most retail investors said the drop was likely temporary following strong third-quarter profit figures. “If you believe in gold, this is the best play out there right now IMO,” one user wrote.<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/AllPenniesNoDividends/message/633525899</stembedurl><h2 class="st-heading-2">What Is Newmont Forecasting For 2026?</h2>Newmont projected its 2026 production toward the lower end of its 2025 output, due to a lower proportion of gold production expected at its Peñasquito mine, and lower leach production from Yanacocha as mining activities are concluded at the Quecher main pit.It also expects capital spending to rise next year, as key projects advance, including the tailings work at Cadia and the potential expansion project at Red Chris.

Bullion has been on a nine-week rally, aided by geopolitical tensions, central bank buying, and robust retail participation.Tuesday’s declines in gold prices also sharply pulled back mining stocks, with Newmont, the world’s biggest gold miner, logging a drop of over 9%, making it the worst-performing stock in the S&amp;P 500 for the day. The VanEck Gold Miners ETF also tumbled over 9%.<h2 class="st-heading-2">What Caused Bullion's Decline?</h2>The plunge in gold prices followed U.S. President Donald Trump's statement on Monday that he expected to reach a fair trade deal with Chinese President Xi Jinping, while also downplaying concerns over differences in their views on Taiwan.“The unwind follows a spectacular rally (almost $1,000 in two months) driven by FOMO that pushed gold into extreme overbought territory, leaving it vulnerable to a sharp snap back,” IG analyst Tony Sycamore said.However, on Tuesday, Trump sounded cautious over a trade deal with China. "I think we're going to have a very successful meeting. Certainly, there are a lot of people that are waiting for it," Trump said about his upcoming meeting with Xi in South Korea. "Maybe it won't happen. Things can happen where, for instance, maybe somebody will say, 'I don't want to meet. It's too nasty'.

The two sides then slapped fees on ships originating from each other, before Trump threatened a 100% tariff hike on all Chinese goods.U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessent said on Wednesday that the U.S. could take further actions, including export controls, if Beijing took retaliatory measures and was also ready to impose tariffs on China over its purchases of Russian oil, if European allies agreed to do the same.Separately, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said earlier this week that the U.S. central bank will decide on interest rates on a case-by-case basis before also noting that economic conditions have not changed materially since the Fed’s last meeting, where it cut rates by 25 basis points. According to CME Group’s FedWatch tool, an overwhelming majority of traders expect cuts of similar levels in the next two meetings of Fed policymakers.“A reescalation in U.S.-China trade tensions has driven this week’s safe-haven demand, compounding a perfect storm of other tailwinds, surging geopolitical risks in Europe, ballooning fiscal debt concerns, and voracious buying from central and private investors,” IG analyst Tony Sycamore said.How has gold fared this year compared to Equities and Bitcoin?The bullion has gained over 60% this year, heading toward its best yearly gains since 1979. The S&amp;P 500 has gained 13.6% this year, while Bitcoin is up 19.3%. The sharp rise had led to strong flows into gold ETFs.

The Fed had lowered interest rates by 25 basis points in the previous meeting.According to CME Group’s FedWatch tool, nearly 96% traders have priced in a 25-basis-point rate cut in the Federal Open Market Committee meeting later this month.

As an example, we can easily produce Cooking Oil ourselves, we don’t need to purchase it from China,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.Also See: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/why-is-gevo-stock-jumping-nearly-10-premarket-today/ch6nYSER3ZC">Why Is Gevo Stock Jumping Nearly 10% Premarket Today?</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.
