0934 GMT - South African miners look likely to deliver stable production following a string of operational issues last year, Citi says. Stabilized volumes followed by a recovery could be a key earnings catalyst for the stocks through lower unit costs, analysts write in a research note. "Having said that, we flag there is limited room for miners to cut costs organically, while platinum-metals miners could incur some restructuring costs," they say. Potential production cuts should be supportive of PGM prices, they add. Shares of South African PGM miners Impala Platinum, Anglo American Platinum and Sibanye-Stillwater are up 4.9%, 3.7% and 4.9%, respectively. (christian.moess@wsj.com)
