Barrick Mining (TSX: ABX; NYSE: B) says it’s reviewing operations to curtail unplanned downtime and improve worker safety as the Canadian miner shifts its focus to North America. Toronto-based Barrick is about halfway through the review, additional details of which will be released in February, interim CEO Mark Hill said Monday after the company reported third-quarter results. Barrick wants to better plan maintenance and eliminate “unexpected surprises” such as a recent roaster failure at the Carlin complex in Nevada, which caused the company to lose seven days of production at the end of the third quarter, he said. “We can’t keep having things go wrong unexpected…

Barrick Mining (TSX: ABX; NYSE: B) will appeal a Malian court decision appointing Soumana Makadji, a former health minister, as the provisional administrator of its Loulo-Gounkoto operation for six months. “We take note of the decision, the appointment of an administrator whom we know well. It is a court decision. We will appeal,” West Africa director Mamadou Samaké told Reuters. Since January, Loulo-Gounkoto, one of Africa’s largest gold complexes, has sat idle amid a standoff triggered by Mali’s 2023 mining code, which raised tax rates and expanded state equity participation. In November 2024, Malian authorities blocked Barrick’s gold exports and seized abo…

Barrick has resisted transitioning to this new code, arguing that its existing agreements should…

Barrick Mining (NYSE: B)(TSX: ABX) aims to secure up to $3.5 billion in financing from the United States and other international lenders to build a massive copper-gold mine in Pakistan, after long-promised Saudi funding failed to materialize.

Dave Portnoy has re-entered the digital-asset arena with a seven-figure allocation in XRP that has raised eyebrows across the market. At a time when XRP continues to face downward pressure and muted investor sentiment, the Barstool Sports founder executed a decisive million-dollar purchase.

He framed his move bluntly, describing the market as “bleeding…

Each miner will decide on next steps after the joint testing period, including whether to move toward broader trials or fleet integration. BHP said the work aims to confirm the performance of battery systems, charging infrastructure and support…

Battery metals markets remain under pressure as falling prices and oversupply weigh on producers, with little sign of a near-term rebound, the last analysis from Fastmarkets, a cross-commodity price reporting agency, shows. Despite ongoing growth in electric vehicle (EV) sales, market fundamentals for lithium, cobalt, nickel, manganese, graphite, and recycled materials continue to deteriorate, driven by excess supply, sluggish investment and mounting policy uncertainty, according to the report. Lithium prices have seen the sharpest decline. Spodumene spot prices in China fell 19.1% in May to $612.50 per tonne, down 30% since January. Lithium carbonate prices dropp…

Overview: The greenback is under pressure. It is off against nearly all of the world's currencies after falling in North America yesterday. Reports that Israel may be planning a strike against Iranian nuclear facilities has contributed to the broad risk off moods and helped lift July WTI to new highs since early April. While the greenback is not benefiting from the risk-off, gold has extended its gains to about $3300. Still, the dollar is off its lows and North American leadership is await. While equities were mostly higher in the Asia Pacific region, Europe's Stoxx 600 is snapping a four-day advance. It is off nearly 0.5%. The S&P 500 ended a six-day rally yesterday…

The Bitcoin price showed some signs of recovery at the start of the week, trading above the $110,000 mark. This uptick follows two consecutive Fridays of major drops, igniting fears and uncertainty among investors. These concerns have been compounded by predictions from experts about a potential bear market on the horizon. Looming Bear Market Threat Market analyst Doctor Profit, known for his accurate forecasts regarding the recent Bitcoin price trajectory, has recently cast doubt on whether market makers will allow both retail and institutional investors to exit at more favorable prices after incurring losses. In a social media post on X (previously Twitter), he sugg…

Dogecoin’s Market-Value-to-Realised-Value (MVRV) Z-Score is printing just 0.28 – a level normally associated with capitulation, not euphoria. Yet the price of the ninth-largest cryptocurrency keeps carving a succession of higher highs and higher lows on the weekly chart, trading near $0.17 with a market capitalisation of roughly $26 billion in Monday’s late-New-York session. The juxtaposition between lethargic on-chain sentiment and resilient spot bids was laid bare in a chart posted to X by Kevin, the pseudonymous analyst behind @Kev_Capital_TA. “Dogecoin MVRV Score is still at bear-market levels while price continues to make higher highs and higher lows on higher time …

Bitcoin’s price rally has hit turbulence over the past 48 hours, and this has opened the door for bearish voices to resurface. After reaching a fresh high of $124,128 just three days ago, the leading cryptocurrency has since declined by about 4.8%, sliding back to the $117,000 to $118,000 price zone at the time of writing. This pullback has opened up a possibility that the much-anticipated macro top may already be in, and further downside may be possible if there is a lack of bullish momentum. Analyst Maps Out Bearish Bitcoin Wave Structure Bitcoin showed signs of building on in early August after bouncing off a low around $112,000. However, after its latest high at $12…

The US dollar index slipped by 0.7% this past week — its worst weekly performance since June. Starting from Thursday, the greenback has been weakening for four consecutive trading days, and this isn't just a short-term correction. It's a clear sign of a growing bearish trend. So, what's driving this unexpected decline—and what lies ahead for the American currency? Unexpected downturn: what's pushing the dollar lower This week turned out to be a rough one for the dollar. The dollar index fell by 0.7% — the steepest weekly decline since June. The greenback has now been falling for four sessions in a row — a rare occurrence for such a liquid and typically stable market. Th…

As the Bitcoin (BTC) price stabilizes 5% below its all-time high of $111,800, which was reached last week, predictions of further price declines have emerged. More surprisingly, one expert claims that all of BTC’s history is a “staged illusion,” which could cause it to dip toward the $10,000 mark for the first time in nearly five years. Expert Alleges Bitcoin’s Rise As ‘Largest Bubble In History’ Jacob King, the CEO of the news aggregator Whale Whire, took to social media to assert that Bitcoin’s trajectory is a carefully constructed illusion, designed to convey a sense of institutional commitment and government endorsement, thereby fostering the illusion of a thriving m…

Bitcoin’s narrow price movement over the past week contradicts a much different development in the futures market. According to Axel Adler Jr., an analyst at on-chain analytics platform CryptoQuant, a sharp rise in the long liquidation dominance metric could set the stage for a significant shift in sentiment that may completely wash out bears from the market. Adler shared the data in a recent post on X, accompanied by a chart showing previous points that resemble the current setup. Long Liquidation Spike Without Price Crash The dominance of long liquidations has jumped from 0% to +10% over the past seven days, a move that typically shows distress among bullish traders. H…

Before the Elon Musk Epstein List warning, the serial tech entrepreneur and recently fired White House employee warned us about ChatGPT and Microsoft. “AI is potentially more dangerous than nukes,” is one of his oft-quoted statements.’ Elon had high hopes for OpenAI, co-founding ChatGPT in 2015 and taking the wheel alongside CEO Sam Altman. Recently, Musk has thrown up his hands at the company, ultimately saying he is concerned about the direction of research and development. He went so far as to say, “OpenAI has become a closed-source, maximum-profit company effectively controlled by Microsoft.” Here’s why Elon believes ChatGPT is the first horseman of the apocalypse…

The world is witnessing the rise of the dollar-pegged stablecoin. However, China, for one, is not happy with its growing dominance in global finance. A Chinese stablecoin might be on the horizon as the country explores yuan-backed stablecoins, in a major pivot towards digital assets. According to an article published by Reuters on August 21, 2025, the Chinese Council is exploring ways to internationalise the Yuan and is reportedly set to review a roadmap for the same later this month. This plan includes the development of a Chinese stablecoin. Sources indicate that this initiative is a direct response to the growing influence of US dollar-pegged stablecoins, such a…

Last Friday, China announced sweeping new restrictions on the export of rare earth metals and other critical materials—a move that reportedly infuriated Donald Trump and his administration. It is clear that with these actions, Beijing is signaling that it is not a "punching bag" and that the United States is not the only country capable of issuing threats and ultimatums. These restrictions suggest China's intention to strengthen its position in the ongoing trade war, ahead of the highly anticipated meeting between Donald Trump and Xi Jinping scheduled for later this month. In a formal statement, China's Ministry of Commerce said that foreign exporters using even trace a…
