Most Recent AEM Analyst Recommendations

Matthew Murphy, a top 19% analyst from Barclays maintains AEM with a strong buy rating and raises their AEM price target from $63.00 to $65.00, on Jan 30, 2023.

Murphy bumped up his price target on Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd by 3.2%.

Although economic growth continues to be "better than expected," gold is a good hedge against future deterioration, the analyst told investors.

A soft landing is possible, but monetary tightening "is not done yet," Murphy cautioned, concluding that "gold will be better choices than copper stocks**."

** Copper is considered "a barometer of the overall global economic strength. In recent years, copper's role in growing electric vehicle production has further boosted demand, when demand for copper increases, it typically indicates a growing economy." [from here and here] Therefore, the analyst is implying that the economy will deteriorate further rather than recover in the short term.

Alexander Hacking, a top 12% analyst from Citigroup upgrades AEM to a strong buy rating and announces their AEM price target of $50.00, on Sep 30, 2022.
