Gold mining stocks are having a moment. As gold prices stay near all-time highs and Q3 earnings crushed expectations, here's what the data shows:



**The Setup**: Use PEG ratio <1.0 to find miners with both growth AND value (P/E ÷ growth rate). This filters out the hype.

**3 Worth Watching**:

1. **Newmont (NEM)** - World's largest. Sometimes obvious is best. Earnings up 71% YoY, PEG 0.5, forward P/E just 14. Q3 free cash flow hit $1.6B record.

2. **Gold Fields (GFI)** - South African play, market cap $34.4B. Earnings expected to jump 136% this year, 48% next. PEG ratio is tiny at 0.26 + 1.7% dividend yield.

3. **Kinross Gold (KGC)** - Canadian miner, $29.4B cap. Earnings forecasted up 140% in 2025, another 24% in 2026. Just raised dividend 17% and upped buybacks to $600M. PEG 0.43.

**The Real Talk**: Gold staying elevated + strong free cash flow + cheap valuations = miners actually have legs into 2026. But always check current macro before jumping in.
