On June 15, AngloGold Ashanti rose 7.47% in pre-market trading, trading at 93.53 USD/share, with turnover of $1.7129 million.
On the news front, AngloGold Ashanti confirmed it will hold a shareholder special meeting on July 23 at its global headquarters in Greenwood Village, Colorado, to seek approval for a proposed share repurchase program of up to $2 billion. The buyback plan, first announced in May, is designed to optimize the company's capital structure and return value to shareholders. The large-scale repurchase expectation has significantly lifted market confidence.
AngloGold Ashanti is an independent global gold mining company with operations spanning 11 countries across four continents. Gold is its primary product, with silver and sulphuric acid produced as by-products. The stock had previously fallen over 5% on June 10 after RBC Capital Markets cut its target price from $138 to $114, but the buyback catalyst has since reversed that weakness.
