A Closer Look at Pan American Silver's Options Market Dynamics

Price Target

Jefferies Maintains Hold on Pan American Silver, Raises Price Target to $23

Investors cautious about the Federal Reserve&#39;s September rate cut&mdash;confirmed at its mid-month meeting to be a full 50 basis points&mdash;and skeptical about the strength of the dollar have flocked to gold, sending the most famous safe haven commodity soaring to record highs. But there is only so much upside potential to gold, particularly given the attention that it has already drawn. For investors interested in diversifying beyond gold but still in search of a hedge against the dollar amid a new interest rate environment, silver provides a suitable alternative.
The price of silver has climbed at a pace just slightly slower than gold in the last year, surging by more than 29% in that time. Investors looking to stock up on physical metals may find that silver&#39;s lower price relative to gold makes it more accessible. It also has a strong array of applications, as its conductivity makes it an essential component of many electronics, solar components, and other products.
There are also ways to build indirect exposure to silver, either through a number of ETFs focused on the mining industry or through the stocks of individual silver mining firms. These companies tend to do well when the price of silver surges but are potentially separated from the volatility of the metal itself to some degree.
<h2>PAAS: Increased Resource Estimates, Earnings Growth Potential</h2>
Pan American Silver Corp. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/paas#NYSE">PAAS</a>) is among the larger silver mining companies, with a market capitalization of $7.5 billion. This size is reflected in the firm&#39;s large portfolio of mines scattered throughout the Americas. One mine in particular&mdash;the La Colorada Skarn mine in Mexico&mdash;is notable as Pan American&#39;s highest-producing silver mine.
Pan American announced a significant increase in estimated silver resources at La Colorada earlier this month. The firm also has expansions planned in other mining sites as well. This news could be part of the reason analysts expect Pan American to more than double its earnings in the coming year.
The company is also favored by analysts because of its healthy free cash flow (over $102 million in the latest quarter), which gives it a healthy cushion to fund expansions of its mining efforts or dividend payments.
<h2>WPM: Solid Finances and Balance Sheet</h2>
Investors looking for stability in a mining stock should look to Wheaton Precious Metals Corp. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/wpm#NYSE">WPM</a>), which generated an impressive $234 million in operating cash flow last quarter. The firm carries a cash balance of over $500 million and no debt as of the end of the second quarter, making it ideally positioned to address a variety of business needs through the remainder of the year.
Wheaton is among the few mining stocks to generate net earnings rather than net losses last quarter.
This company is less of a targeted silver play than some others, however.
While Wheaton&#39;s silver production for the latest quarter did climb by 14% relative to a year earlier, silver production and sales remain just a small portion of the company&#39;s business, well behind gold.
<h2>NEM: Notable Dividend and Major Cash Influx</h2>
Newmont Corp. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nem#NYSE">NEM</a>) is also one of the largest mining companies, but while other firms expand their operations, this company is making moves to streamline its business.
Like Wheaton above, its primary business is gold, though Newmont does maintain its silver mining operations as well.
Newmont has recently renewed its focus on high-production tier 1 mining assets, and in doing so plans to sell a number of its other mining projects.
In the process, Newmont could raise $2 billion.
This could boost its dividend yield and may be a factor among analysts forecasting earnings growth of more than 20% in the coming year.
<h2>Silver ETFs Offer Easy Exposure to Silver Without Storage Hassles</h2>
Silver ETFs offer investors an easy way of tracking the spot price of silver without having to face the challenges associated with holding, storing, and transporting physical silver. An under-the-radar silver ETF is the Aberdeen Standard Physical Silver Shares ETF (ARCA:SIVR), which stands out for its strong performance over the last year&mdash;it is up more than 28% during that time&mdash;as well as its expense ratio of 0.30%, lower than popular competitor iShares Silver Trust ETF (ARCA:SLV) which stands at 0.50%.

Shares of precious metal companies are trading lower amid a drop in the price of gold. Weakness in the commodity may be due to August's ISM Manufacturing PMI data indicating an economic contraction and pending non-farm payrolls data that may determine the size of future rate cuts.

Shares of precious metals stocks are trading lower amid a drop in the US dollar.

The momentum in gold&#8217;s recent rally has lost much of its shine, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/gold">with the precious metal</a> unable to reach new record highs since Aug. 20, as U.S. Treasury yields stabilize and the dollar rebounds.
On Wednesday, gold traded at $2,505 per ounce, down 0.8% for the day, poised to break a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities"> three-session winning streak.</a>
The dollar's recent surge, driven by positive catalysts, appears to be fading, prompting traders to take profits and reduce exposure to gold.
 Rate-cut expectations have not seen significant improvement, with speculators fully pricing in a September rate cut but assigning a 65% probability to a smaller 25-basis-point reduction, compared to 35% for a 50-basis-point cut, according to the CME FedWatch tool.
As the Federal Reserve&#8217;s rate cut expectations remained largely unchanged, Treasury yields stabilized, with the 10-year yield trading at 3.83% on Wednesday. Despite falling 67 basis points since early July, the yield hasn&#8217;t dropped below 3.75% since earlier this month, when a volatility event caused wild swings in equity and fixed income markets.
Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, which have historically boosted safe-haven assets like gold, did not escalate into a broader conflict after recent exchanges between Israel and Hezbollah. This de-escalation has further diminished gold&#8217;s appeal.
The U.S. dollar index (DXY) was up 0.4% Wednesday, after closing Tuesday at the lowest levels since July 2023.
