    AngloGold Ashanti Falls 13.5% Over 30 Days Despite 39.4% Forecasted EPS Growth

    Question

    AngloGold Ashanti Falls 13.5% Over 30 Days Despite 39.4% Forecasted EPS Growth

    Direct answer

    AngloGold Ashanti shares continued their downward trajectory, declining 1.88% on October 23 and falling 13.5% over the past 30 days. The sell-off represents significant relative weakness against the broader Basic Materials sector. The weakness diverges from consensus quarterly earnings expectations, which call for a 39.39% increase in earnings per share and a 28.36% increase in revenue. Market skepticism appears centered on sustaining margin expansion in the face of rising energy and operational input costs.
