The reason for ABX/NEM difference is so obvious;
Newmont is simply more volatile than Barrick
On up days, NEM is usually up more than ABX
On down days, NEM is usually down more than ABX

I looked at the last 300 trading days, calculated the daily
changes for each, and ended up with an average ratio of 1.6

If ABX goes up 1%, NEM goes up 1.6% (on average)
If ABX goes down 1%, NEM goes down 1.6% (on average)

There will be day-to-day fluctuations and
exceptions when one goes up and the other down.

Today, however, the ratio seems pretty close:

ABX down 1.88%, NEM down 2.57%, ratio= 1.4
