marketwatch.com Bear Stearns analyst Michael S. Dudas recommends shares of Newmont as his top stock pick among the precious metals, as it provides "the greatest leverage to rising gold prices with a low cost, quality profile of operations and a deep management pool." Shares of Newmont Mining (NEM: news, chart, profile) were last at $23.64, up 83 cents. "Without much fanfare, gold prices have ticked up to the mid-$280s, while NEM's shares are near levels witnessed before its consolidation proposal with Normandy and Franco," Dudas said in a research report issued Monday, noting that he expects Newmont will see more investor support as the "structural and company merits of the transaction become more visible." Additionally, investors and producers have fewer reasons this year to be negative on gold, he said. "The prospect of producer buybacks into a less liquid market, as well as favorable macro and technical variables should allow gold to trade higher," he said.
