What Does the Data Tell Us?
Gold stocks break out: Gold mining stocks staged a remarkable recovery in late October, erasing their earlier 12% year-to-date underperformance relative to physical gold (which was up ~27%). While miners initially lagged due to operational challenges, rising costs, and weather-related risks, the sector rallied broadly in the second half of the month. Genesis Minerals, despite being the most heavily shorted gold stock, led the surge alongside Northern Star.
Asset managers trend higher: The bullish equity market backdrop and ongoing structural shifts in the Australian wealth management platform landscape has created significant tailwinds for fund managers and investment platforms. A leading name like Pinnacle Investment Management has finished higher 22 of the last 27 weeks.
Staples soften: Several key consumer staples stocks have hit 52-week lows, including Inghams (poultry), Metcash (food, hardware, and liquor), and Endeavour Group (liquor and hotels). Metcash recently projected its 1H25 underlying NPAT at $132-135 million –11% below Macquarie's forecast – citing weakened retail performance in its hardware division due to ongoing housing market softness.
