MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Newmont
Bull Case

green Wall Street bull icon

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Newmont Co.:

  • Newmont Co. recently reported second-quarter earnings of $2.10 per share, which beat the analyst consensus estimate of $2.05, demonstrating strong profitability with a net margin of 33.36% and a return on equity of 29.10%.
  • The stock currently trades at $121.41, which is below the consensus price target of $133.78, suggesting potential upside as analysts maintain a "Moderate Buy" consensus rating with 20 out of 24 analysts recommending a Buy or Strong Buy.
  • Recent analyst actions, such as National Bank Financial raising its price objective to $140.00 and Canaccord Genuity Group setting a target of $130.00, indicate institutional confidence in the company's trajectory despite recent market volatility.
  • Short interest has decreased to 16,728,543 shares as of September 15, 2026, a drop from 17,161,938 shares in the previous month, which may signal that short sellers are covering their positions and reducing downward pressure on the stock.
  • Newmont Co. maintains a low beta of 0.52, indicating that the stock is less volatile than the broader market, which can provide a stabilizing effect for investors during periods of economic uncertainty or interest rate changes.

Newmont
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in Newmont Co. for these reasons:

  • Insider selling has been consistent, with executives including CEO Natascha Viljoen and EVP Peter Toth selling a combined total of over 15,000 shares in August and September 2026, which may signal a lack of confidence in the current valuation or future growth.
  • The company's revenue of $6.12 billion in the most recent quarter missed the consensus estimate of $6.35 billion, suggesting that top-line growth may be lagging behind expectations despite strong earnings per share.
  • Gold prices have faced pressure from the Federal Reserve's recent rate hikes, as higher interest rates typically strengthen the U.S. dollar and make non-yielding assets like gold less attractive, potentially impacting Newmont Co.'s revenue and margins.
  • Several analysts have recently lowered their price targets, including UBS Group cutting its target from $140.00 to $120.00 and BMO Capital Markets reducing its target from $145.00 to $135.00, reflecting a more cautious outlook on the stock's near-term performance.
  • The stock has experienced significant volatility, with a 52-week range from $76.05 to $135.29, and recent price movements show a decline of 2.92% in a single session, indicating that the stock is sensitive to macroeconomic factors and market sentiment.
