Agnico Eagle Mines is trading 4.08% up now at $174.77 as gold prices extended gains above $4,300 amid fading rate-hike expectations, safe-haven demand and Middle East uncertainty.
- Gold futures were recently reported at $4,320.42.
- Gold miners broadly gained 7% to 10% during the prior session; the move appears sector-driven rather than tied to a new company-specific announcement.
- The July 29 second-quarter earnings release remains supportive background, with record free cash flow.
