Freeport-McMoRan News
Bulls Say, Bears Say
Bulls Say
Catalysts For Share PriceA rising copper price, continued strength in the gold price, and consistent operating performance are expected to lead to a significantly higher FCX share price over time.
Financial PerformanceFreeport's 3Q EBITDA of $2.69bn beat forecasts and consensus due to higher than expected gold sales volumes leading to much lower costs.
Strategic InvestmentsFreeport increased its ownership in Cerro Verde, which is notable and may indicate strategic growth intentions.
Bears Say
Cost ManagementUnit costs in North America continued to rise due to lower ore grades offsetting the benefits of low-cost leaching.
Financial PerformanceFCX expects consolidated sales in 4Q24 at 980m lbs of copper, lower than Visible Alpha consensus of 1,041m lbs and MSe 1,040m lbs.
Operational RisksA large fire broke out at PT-FI's new smelter in Indonesia, which will likely lead to costs to repair damage and potential further delays to first production.
