Movement Alert｜Freeport-McMoRan rises 3.01% in Regular Trading, earnings beat continues to support sentiment

Market Focus11-02 22:57

On November 2, Freeport-McMoRan rose 3.01% in Regular Trading, trading at $64.4/share, with turnover of $65.94 million.

The clearest recent catalyst remains the company’s third-quarter results released on October 27, when it reported revenue of $7.55 billion and adjusted EPS of $0.88, both above market expectations. Quarterly copper production reached 832 million pounds and gold production totaled 234 thousand ounces, while the company also indicated full-year sales of about 3.0 billion pounds of copper, 649 thousand ounces of gold and 93 million pounds of molybdenum.

Although a later target-price cut by a major broker to $85 from $88 had pressured the shares in prior sessions, that note maintained a buy rating. Against that backdrop, the stronger-than-expected operating and earnings figures appear to remain the most relevant established factor supporting the stock’s rebound.
