Gold miners are printing cash while prices remain under pressure.
Majors, such as Newmont, just reported record Q2 2026 free cash flow of $2.2B, off an average realized gold price of $4,414 per ounce, with 1.3M ounces of gold plus copper and silver on top.
It also booked $2.9B in operating cash flow and $3.8B in adjusted EBITDA.
Miners are using this cash to cut debt, buy back shares, and raise dividends.
The fundamentals are already there. The prices are the part that’s behind.
