Agnico Eagle Mines is trading at 7.85% up now at $201.61 after softer U.S. data reduced expectations for a September Federal Reserve hike, supporting gold and precious-metals miners.

  • Gold edged higher as Treasury yields eased; traders awaited Federal Reserve minutes, with a 35% September hike probability, Reuters reported.
  • The broader Materials sector is also up 2.06%, reinforcing a sector-wide rally in metals and chemicals.
  • The move appears macro- and sector-driven; no new company-specific announcement was identified for August 19, 2026.
