The company reported a 4Q loss, but share prices got a boost regardless due to current market conditions.

Coeur Mining, Inc. (CDE) stock rose 33.20% in the 3-day time horizon in accordance with the algorithm’s bullish forecast from February 11th. This outstanding growth for the company occurred despite the loss revealed in the 4Q earnings report on February 10th. Coeur Mining, Inc. suffered a small slump around this time, likely due to the earnings report, but has continued an upward trend that began mid-January reaching a market cap of $601.8 million on February 12th.

Coeur Mining reported 4Q15 revenues of $164.32 million, up 1.14% from the previous quarter, while earnings were -$303.00 million, down 2,030.94% from Q3. The company’s change in cash flow was approximately the same as the change in earnings for the quarter. Despite losses from Q3, the company reported revenue growth (%YOY) of 16.91% and earnings growth (%YOY) of 71.92% in the earnings report that was released on February 10th.

Production reports were also released, revealing fourth quarter production of 4.0 million ounces of Silver and 91,551 ounces of Gold (equivalent to 9.5 million ounces of Silver). Coeur expects production to increase in 2016 with numbers reaching 14.6-16 million ounces of Silver and 320,000-347,000 ounces of Gold (equivalent to 33.8-36.8 ounces of Silver).

Current market conditions and a weak U.S. dollar have led to a surge in gold prices, causing them to reach a one-year high on the 11th of this month. Dipping stock prices have pushed investors towards gold with its relatively stable prices. Silver, as a precious metal and an industrial metal, is affected both positively and negatively by the bearish market. Still, Silver has maintained its fourth place ranking in commodity performance on the S&P GSCI (Goldman Sachs Commodity Index) since the beginning of the year.
