Is There Now An Opportunity In Newmont Mining Corporation (NEM)?

Newmont Mining Corporation (NYSE:NEM) received a lot of attention from a substantial price movement on the NYSE in the over the last few months, increasing to $39.6 at one point, and dropping to the lows of $35.52. This high level of volatility gives investors the opportunity to enter into the stock, and potentially buy at an artificially low price. A question to answer is whether NEM’s current trading price of $37.19 reflective of the actual value of the large-cap? Or is it currently undervalued, providing us with the opportunity to buy? Let’s take a look at NEM’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if there are any catalysts for a price change. See our latest analysis for NEM

Is NEM still cheap?

The stock is currently trading at $37.19 on the share market, which means it is overvalued by 46% compared to my intrinsic value of $25.51. Not the best news for investors looking to buy! Furthermore, NEM’s share price also seems relatively stable compared to the rest of the market, as indicated by its low beta. If you believe the share price should eventually reach its true value, a low beta could suggest it is unlikely to rapidly do so anytime soon, and once it’s there, it may be hard to fall back down into an attractive buying range.

Can we expect growth from NEM?

Future outlook is an important aspect when you’re looking at buying a stock, especially if you are an investor looking for growth in your portfolio. Buying a great company with a robust outlook at a cheap price is always a good investment, so let’s also take a look at NEM future expectations. With profit expected to more than double over the next couple of years, the future seems bright for NEM. It looks like higher cash flows is on the cards for the stock, which should feed into a higher share valuation.

What this means for you:

Are you a shareholder? NEM’s optimistic future growth appears to have been factored into the current share price, with shares trading above its fair value. At this current price, shareholders may be asking a different question – should I sell? If you believe NEM should trade below its current price, selling high and buying it back up again when its price falls towards its real value can be profitable. But before you make this decision, take a look at whether its fundamentals have changed.

Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping an eye on NEM for a while, now may not be the best time to enter into the stock. The price has surpassed its true value, which means there’s no upside from mispricing. However, the positive outlook is encouraging for NEM, which means it’s worth diving deeper into other factors in order to take advantage of the next price drop.
