Today's Scans of Silver Wheaton, North American Palladium, New Gold, and Agnico-Eagle Mines
LONDON, March 18, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
Gold and silver have struggled this year even as equities have posted significant gains. Gold has come under pressure amid speculation that the Federal Reserve will end its quantitative easing program sooner-than-anticipated. The Fed's ultra-loose monetary policy has been one of the key drivers of gold prices in recent years. Lower gold and silver prices are likely to hurt the top-line of gold and silver mining companies such as Silver Wheaton Corp. (NYSE: SLW), North American Palladium Ltd. (NYSEAMEX: PAL), New Gold Inc. (AMEX: NGD), and Agnico-Eagle Mines Limited (NYSE: AEM). Gold and silver stocks ended mostly lower on Friday as the Dow Jones' 10-day winning streak ended.
