Newmont Goldcorp is trading at $118.96 (+4.18%) following the $1.95 billion Nevada Gold Mines settlement with Barrick, with gold-price strength and forecast-topping second-quarter results also supporting the rally.
- Shares are extending a strong recent rally.
- The settlement adds key development assets, resolves disputes, and clears Barrick’s North American gold IPO path.
- Broader markets are slightly lower, suggesting today’s gain is primarily company- and gold-sector-related rather than index-driven.
