Shares of precious metals stocks are trading higher as gold and silver prices rise amid US tariffs on steel and aluminum.

Eldorado Gold shares are trading lower. The company provided 2025 production guidance and announced a delay for its Skourie project.

Gold production in 2025 reflects the following:
<ul>
<li>First production from Skouries in 2026 rather than 2025.</li>
<li>At Kisladag, expected production has been impacted by longer than planned leach cycles and lower grade stacked.</li>
<li>At Olympias, expected production has been impacted by a delay in mill expansion commissioning to 650ktpa, and unscheduled maintenance of the gold concentrate filters.</li>
</ul>
"Our updated 2025 gold production guidance is expected to be between 460,000 and 500,000 ounces. This has been lowered from our prior outlook provided in 2024 to reflect the change in initial production at Skouries from the third quarter of 2025 to the first quarter of 2026. In addition, guidance at both Kisladag and Olympias has been lowered compared to our prior 2025 guidance provided in 2024," the company said.&nbsp;

Eldorado Gold Updates 2025 Gold Production Guidance To 460,000 - 500,000 Ounces; Now Expects First Production At Skourie In Q1 Of 2026 Rather Than 2025

Shares of precious metal-related companies are trading higher. Reserve assets may be seeing renewed strength after the Fed kept rates unchanged yesterday and noted that inflation remains somewhat elevated.

Scotiabank analyst Tanya Jakusconek maintains Eldorado Gold (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EGO#NYSE">EGO</a>) with a Sector Perform and lowers the price target from $20 to $18.5.

GATO

Shares of precious metals stocks are trading higher amid strength in gold and silver prices. Gold may be rising amid reports of renewed China Central Bank purchases as well as geopolitical uncertainty following Assad's ouster in Syria.

Every quarter, I track the 13F filings at the SEC. These are the reports filed by money managers of all stripes that show what the funds owned during the most recent quarter. When you compare the current list to the prior quarter, you come away with a clear picture of what institutions are buying for their customers and themselves.
When I started in the business, it took several days past the deadline to get a copy of the filings. I would go through the current and previous filings with a ruler and a yellow highlighter to track the changes. It was laborious but profitable. Today, the filings are made available instantly, and the portfolios and changes are posted to the internet instantly.
The Thundering Herd of Wall Street and the Instant Experts of the Internet will flock to read the filings of the best-known money managers and investors. Obviously, Warren Buffett gets a lot of attention. So do Carl Icahn and Cathie Wood. Bill Ackman also garners some attention. The number of people who dig deeper to find managers that are doing business away from the spotlights and consistently delivering high returns is small.
The famous investors are famous because they did well over time. However, they now manage billions of dollars, and their opportunity set is limited to large-cap stocks. You can do okay with their stocks, but if you want better than okay, you have to dig deeper.
If you joined the circus of Buffettology and just owned the top 20 holdings of Berkshire Hathaway for the last 10 years, you have earned about half the return of the S&amp;P 500. You did much worse as an Icahn clone investor. A very small portion of Klarman&#8217;s fund is invested in stocks these days as he finds bargains in other asset classes like debt and real estate. The stocks Baupost Fund has purchased have not been big winners for the most part.
If you could make the same derivatives bets Bill Ackman made when he made them, you would have done pretty well. If you just bought the stocks he did, you would have lagged the indexes. If you bought the top 20 stocks held by Donald Smith and Company, you would have crushed the market over the last decade. You would have crushed the market for over 20 years cloning this unknown investment firm.
You would have never owned the most exciting stocks. About half the time, you would have trailed the index in a given calendar year. In the years you outperformed, you outperformed by a massive margin.
This approach is incredibly boring.
Donald Smith and Company focuses on the bottom 10% of the stock market as measured by price-to-book value. They narrow the universe down to the cheapest ones and buy the ones they think have the highest potential for recovery. They have done that for over 40 years with exceptional results. Elections, crashes, melt-ups, and meltdowns have come and gone, and this firm just keeps its head down and buys cheap stocks.
As it turns out, boring is profitable.
Founder Donald Smith passed away in 2019, but his associates have kept the firm going with the same mission. The top 20 holdings contain no tech stocks. They do not even own a single tech stock or uranium miner. Donald Smith and Company owns some insurance companies, energy firms, homebuilders, REITs, and even steel companies.
Using their 13F filings to manage your portfolio or find ideas would have delivered market-beating returns that grew your wealth at a much faster pace than owning an index fund. $10,000 invested in the index with dividends reinvested would have piled up to a total of about $67,300. Shamelessly cloning the Donald Smith and Company portfolio would have given you over $151,000.
Today is the deadline for 13F filings covering holdings on September 30, 2024. The Instant Experts and talking heads will be out discussing what the famous investors have been doing. The key is to focus on what the investors who are still crushing the market are doing. We will talk more about this idea over the next week. For now, here are the top 20 stocks owned by Donald Smith and Company as of the end of the third quarter:

Fortuna Silver Mines Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/fsm#NYSE">FSM</a>) produced 110,820 gold equivalent ounces in the third quarter of 2024, a 13.9% decrease from the year-ago quarter. This includes a gold production of 91,251 ounces and a silver production of 816,187 ounces. Gold output marked a 3.8% year-over-year fall, whereas silver production was down 51.4%.
<h2>FSM&#39;s Mine Performances in Q3</h2>
FSM currently has five operating mines in its portfolio. The S&eacute;gu&eacute;la mine, located in C&ocirc;te d&acute;Ivoire, contributed 34,998 ounces of gold in the third quarter of 2024. Its total production for the third quarter of 2023 was 31,498 ounces. The mine is expected to produce gold of 126,000-138,000 ounces in 2024.
The Yaramoko Mine in Burkina Faso produced 28,006 ounces of gold, down 18% year over year. FSM expects Yaramoko&#39;s gold production between 105,000 and 119,000 ounces for 2024.
The third-quarter&nbsp; gold production at the Lindero mine in Argentina was 24,345 ounces, up 16.3% year over year. The 2024 guidance for the mine is pegged at 93,000-105,000 ounces of gold.
The San Jose mine in Mexico produced 510,741 ounces of silver and 3,771 ounces of gold. Silver production was down 62.8% year over year, whereas gold production declined 54%.

The Caylloma mine in Peru produced 305,446 ounces of silver, down 0.9% year over year. Gold output was 131 ounces compared with 149 ounces in the third quarter of 2023. The mine&#39;s 2024 silver production is targeted between 0.9 million and 1.1 million ounces.

<h2>Fortuna Silver Maintains 2024 Guidance</h2>

Gold equivalent production guidance for 2024 is maintained between 457,000 and 497,000 ounces. The range indicates a year-over-year increase of 1-10%.
The gold production guidance is pegged at 343,000-385,000 ounces, which indicates growth of 5-18% from the 2023 reported level. The silver production guidance is 4-4.7 million ounces for 2024, which suggests a year-over-year decline of 21-32%.
<h2>FSM&#39;s Peer Performance in Q3</h2>
Endeavour Silver Corporation (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/exk#NYSE">EXK</a>) produced 1.6 million silver equivalent ounces in the third quarter of 2024, a 14% decline from the year-ago quarter due to reduced silver production at its mines, which offset higher gold output. 
Consolidated silver production fell 24% year over year to 874,717 million ounces. This was due to a reduced operating capacity at Guanacev&iacute; after the trunnion breakdown in August.
Endeavour Silver, however, witnessed a 2% year-over-year improvement in gold production to 9,290 ounces . The rise was driven by higher gold grades mined at Guanacev&iacute; and Bola&ntilde;itos, as well as increased gold content in third-party feed processed at Guanacev&iacute;.
<h2>Fortuna Silver&#39;s Share Price Outperforms Industry</h2>
Shares of Fortuna Silver have gained 61% in the past year compared with the industry&#39;s 7.3% growth.

Shares of precious metals companies are trading lower amid a pullback in gold and silver.

Fission Uranium (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/fcuuf#OTC">FCUUF</a>) has completed the hearing before the Supreme Court of British Columbia regarding the approval of the final order for its acquisition by Paladin Energy Limited. The hearing began before the Court on Sept. 13, 2024, and ended on Sept. 26. Its decision on the final order is expected in the coming weeks.
Fission&#39;s acquisition by Paladin Energy, however, remains opposed by CGN Mining Company Limited (&quot;CGN&quot;), which holds an 11.26% stake in Fission. CGN is a subsidiary of China General Nuclear Power Corp.
Fission&#39;s shareholders voted in favor of the acquisition at the special meeting held on Sept. 9, 2024. The closure of the acquisition currently remains subject to receipt of the final order and clearance under the Investment Canada Act, as well as other customary conditions.
<h2>Fission Uranium-Paladin Energy Merger Overview</h2>
Fission Uranium inked the deal with the Australian miner, Paladin Energy , in June 2024. Per the agreement, Paladin Energy would acquire FCUUF&#39;s outstanding shares for an implied total equity value of C$1.14 billion ($0.846 billion).
The acquisition, if successful, will create a company with a pro forma market capitalization of $3.5 billion. It will be placed among the largest pure-play global uranium companies with a combined mineral resource of 544 million pounds of uranium and ore reserves of 157 million. It will have a solid portfolio of exploration, development and production assets, and a substantially increased international capital markets exposure.
Fission Uranium&#39;s shareholders will receive 0.1076 fully paid shares of Paladin Energy for each share held in FCUUF. On completion, existing Paladin Energy and Fission Uranium shareholders will own around 76% and 24% of the combined entity, respectively.
Paladin Energy has applied for the listing of its shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange concurrent with the completion of the transaction. Consequently, Fission Uranium shareholders will receive TSX-listed Paladin Energy shares.
<h2>FCUUF Buyout to Strengthen Paladin Energy&#39;s Uranium Portfolio</h2>
Paladin Energy is an independent uranium producer with 75% ownership of the world-class long-life Langer Heinrich Mine located in Namibia. It also owns a portfolio of uranium exploration and development assets in Canada and Australia.&nbsp; Through its Langer Heinrich Mine, it delivers uranium to major nuclear utilities across the world. It has a 17-year estimated mine life and a nameplate annual capacity of 6 million pounds of uranium.
The acquisition of Fission Uranium will make Paladin Energy the 100% owner of the Patterson Lake South uranium property. It is a proposed high-grade uranium mine and mill in Canada&#39;s Athabasca Basin region. The feasibility study for the property projects a 10-year mine life with an annual production of 9.1 million pounds of uranium.
This move will help Paladin Energy capitalize on the growing demand for uranium. Several factors are driving this demand, such as the need for more electricity generation and the global push to decarbonize electrical grids, among others.
Over the past few years, the global uranium market has undergone a shift from an inventory-driven to a production-driven market.&nbsp; Underinvestment in uranium mining operations over the past decade has been the reason for a structural deficit between global production and uranium requirements.&nbsp; In 2024 and 2025, the gap between production and demand is projected to be more than 66 million pounds of uranium. This gap is expected to reach more than 400 million pounds by 2034. Uranium prices will be supported by robust demand and tight supply.
<h2>Fission Uranium Stock&#39;s Price Performance</h2>
Shares of Fission Uranium have gained 11.1% in the past year compared with the industry&#39;s 37.7% growth.
