Fortuna Mining (TSX: FVI; NYSE: FSM) says a preliminary economic assessment (PEA) for the Diamba Sud gold project in Senegal shows the Canadian miner could recoup its investment in less than a year. Using a gold price of $2,750 per oz. and a discount rate of 5%, the study shows an after‑tax net present value of $563 million, an internal rate of return of 72% and a payback of about 0.8 years, Fortuna said Wednesday in a statement. Initial capital costs to develop Diamba Sud are pegged at $283.2 million. The PEA represents “a positive rerating catalyst that unlocks the viability over Fortuna’s organic growth opportunities and target to reach about 500,000” gold-equi…

Allied Gold (TSX: AAUC, NYSE: AAUC) soared to an all-time high on Wednesday after the company reported its preliminary results for the third quarter of 2025, showing production in line with expectations but at lower costs. During the three months, Allied produced over 87,000 oz. of gold across its three African mines, a figure that is in line with expectations. This, says the Toronto-based miner, will “fully support strong production in the fourth quarter as previously guided.” Importantly, the company noted that its all-in sustaining costs have materially improved, which in turn is expected to drive an 80% increase in AISC margins. At approximately $2,100/oz., th…

Analysis of Trades and Tips for Trading the European Currency The price test of 1.1630 occurred when the MACD indicator had already moved significantly above the zero line, which limited the pair's upward potential. For this reason, I did not buy the euro. The decline in industrial output in the eurozone countries, though expected, turned out to be less significant than analysts had predicted, allowing the European currency to maintain a positive trend against the U.S. dollar. However, the pair also did not see any major growth. The euro's rate was influenced in two ways: on the one hand, industrial figures that were better than expected supported the currency; on the oth…

The run in Silver prices has been nothing short of extraordinary. Since the start of the year, the metal has surged more than 80%, with most of the move unfolding after Powell’s late-August speech at Jackson Hole (+37% in a 44-day span). Having broken its 2011 record highs of $49.81, Silver now trades comfortably above $50, and definitely cementing its seat as one of the most explosive rally in more than a decade. Beyond speculation, Silver’s industrial demand — particularly in photovoltaic panels, EVs and advanced electronics — is driving the squeeze. Supply issues are mounting, with growing fears that the metal’s rarity could lead to some disastrous developments fo…

Trade Analysis and Recommendations for Trading the British Pound The price test of 1.3367 occurred when the MACD indicator had already moved significantly above the zero line, which limited the pair's upward potential. For this reason, I did not buy the pound. Comments from Bank of England officials did not help the pound rise. Investors, who are seeking clearer signals on the future course of monetary policy, heard nothing new — only restrained statements. Today, attention will focus on the Empire Manufacturing Index, which may shed light on the state of industry in the region and, indirectly, across the country. Investors are extremely sensitive to any signs of a slowdo…

Trade Analysis and Recommendations for Trading the Japanese Yen The price test of 151.30 in the first half of the day occurred when the MACD indicator had already moved significantly above the zero line, which limited the pair's upward potential. For this reason, I did not buy the dollar. The second test of 151.30 coincided with the MACD being in the overbought zone, triggering Scenario #2 for a sell trade, but the pair never actually declined, resulting in a loss. Today's focus is on the Empire Manufacturing report. Given the lack of any other significant statistics, this release alone may provide insight into the state of the manufacturing sector in the region. Traders …

Yesterday's statements by Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell reminded everyone who still had doubts that the regulator has no intention of sitting idly by and waiting for labor market and inflation data before taking action. But apart from the Fed's dovish tone, attention should also be paid to the comments of European Central Bank (ECB) officials — without whom nothing ever happens. ECB Governing Council member Gabriel Makhlouf yesterday dismissed concerns about inflation falling below the 2% target, saying that in fact he is more worried that it might once again rise above that threshold. This provided additional support for the euro, as it reaffirmed the ECB's commit…

Today, the EUR/CAD pair continues its advance following Friday's rebound from the 1.6170 level, gaining momentum for the second consecutive day. This marks the third day of positive performance in the past four sessions, pushing spot prices above the key 1.6300 level. From a technical standpoint, the breakout above the confluence of the 9-day EMA and 14-day EMA around 1.6280 can be seen as a key bullish signal. Moreover, the oscillators on the daily chart are gathering positive momentum, confirming a constructive outlook for further growth in the EUR/CAD pair. Some follow-through buying beyond the 1.6350 resistance level would reinforce the bullish scenario, opening the w…

According to statements made on CNBC, BlackRock’s spot Bitcoin ETF, IBIT, has topped $100 billion in assets under management less than two years after it launched.

The wave pattern on the 4-hour EUR/USD chart has transformed. It is still too early to conclude that the upward trend segment has been canceled, but the recent decline of the European currency has made it necessary to clarify the wave count. Thus, we now see a series of three-wave structures labeled a-b-c. It can be assumed that they are part of the global wave 4 of the upward trend. In this case, wave 4 has taken on an unnaturally extended form, but overall the wave structure remains coherent. The formation of the upward trend segment continues, while the news background remains generally unfavorable for the dollar. The trade war started by Donald Trump continues. The co…

Aya Gold & Silver (TSX: AYA) saw double-digit gains on Wednesday for a near all-time high after reporting strong results for the third quarter of 2025, marked by record silver production. During the three months ending Sept. 30, the company produced 1.3 million oz. of the white-colored metal, representing a 29% increase over the previous quarter. The improvement, says Aya, was driven by higher throughput and improved grades at its flagship Zgounder mine in Morocco. For the June-Sept quarter, the Zgounder mill processed on average 3,326 tonnes of material per day, an 11% improvement over Q2 2025, and ran 23% above nameplate capacity. The average head grade also…

Bitcoin is facing a pivotal moment after last Friday’s flash crash briefly sent prices tumbling to the $103,000 level, shaking market confidence before a swift recovery. The leading cryptocurrency has since stabilized, consolidating below the $115,000 mark as traders and institutions reassess short-term momentum. While volatility has returned, on-chain and institutional data continue to show underlying strength in Bitcoin’s fundamentals. According to a new report from Bitwise, institutional demand remains robust — with 72 publicly known companies collectively holding more than 1 million BTC, valued at roughly $117 billion. This includes major corporate holders, ETFs, an…
