On September 30, WANGUO GOLD GP rose 3.07% in regular trading, trading at HK$13.42 per share, with turnover of approximately HK$29.45 million. The rebound came as market expectations for a Federal Reserve rate hike in October cooled notably following weaker-than-expected economic data.
Prior hawkish signals from the Fed — including a 25-basis-point hike in September to 3.75%-4.00% and comments from Boston Fed President Collins warning of persistent above-target inflation — had driven COMEX gold down nearly $290 from its highs and pressured precious metals stocks broadly. The latest softening in macro data has eased tightening fears, triggering an oversold bounce across gold-related equities.
Fundamentally, WANGUO GOLD GP reported strong first-half results, with revenue rising 50.2% year over year to RMB 1.863 billion and attributable net profit climbing 51% to RMB 905 million. The flagship Gold Ridge mine in the Solomon Islands delivered revenue of RMB 1.38 billion, up 43.2%, with gross margin reaching 81%. Additionally, the company completed a HK$5.5 billion convertible bond issuance earmarked for overseas gold mining acquisitions, and deployed idle proceeds into J.P. Morgan and BlackRock funds for enhanced cash management.
