Deutsche Bank downgraded Randgold to Hold saying the stock looks expensive following the 36% rally over the past month.

Barrick Gold Corporation reported preliminary Q1 production of 940 thousand ounces of gold and 40 thousand tonnes of copper, as well as preliminary Q1 sales of 910 thousand ounces of gold and 39 thousand tonnes of copper. As previously guided, Barrick's gold and copper production in 2024 is expected to progressively increase each quarter through the year, with the Pueblo Viejo plant expansion ramping up from Q2 and the Porgera mine restart continuing in line with plans. We remain on track to achieve our full year gold and copper guidance. As planned, preliminary Q1 gold production was lower than Q4 2023 mainly as a result of planned maintenance at Nevada Gold Mines and mine sequencing at various sites. Preliminary Q1 copper production was lower than Q4 2023, driven primarily by lower grades mined at Lumwana in accordance with the mine plan.
