On October 14, Wheaton Precious Metals fell 3.13% in Regular Trading, trading at $131.69 per share, with turnover of $11.7532 million.
The most recent market information indicates the stock’s weakness coincided with a broader pullback in gold equities. Within the Gold sector, Coeur Mining fell 3.23%, Barrick Mining Corporation fell 2.47%, Newmont Mining fell 2.22%, ANGLOGOLD ASHANTI PLC fell 1.92%, and Gold Fields fell 1.47%.
Recent analyst commentary was constructive rather than negative: UBS raised its price target on Wheaton Precious Metals to $160 from $153 on October 8 and maintained a Buy rating. Earlier, the company reported quarterly revenue of $929.2 million, above one published estimate of $879.3 million, while adjusted EPS of $1.19 missed a $1.23 consensus estimate. Those items provide background, but the latest move is most directly aligned with sector-wide weakness in gold names.
