Technical Analyst Clive Maund analyzes Perpetua Resources Corp. to support his view that the stock is a Buy.
Perpetua Resources Corp. PPTA is currently displaying strong upside momentum, with potential for substantial gains in the short to medium-term. This positive momentum is evident on the 6-month chart, indicating a promising outlook for investors.
The Fundamentals Driving Momentum
Perpetua Resources Corp.’s recent surge in stock value is linked to the news of securing up to US$1.8 billion in financing from the export-import bank of the United States for the Stibnite Gold Project. Notably, the inclusion of antimony production—which is crucial for munitions and not domestically produced in the U.S.—has been a key factor in attracting this substantial financing.
Chart Analysis
The stock price reacted positively to this funding announcement, leading to a significant surge. Subsequently, the formation of a bull Pennant pattern suggests a potential for further gains. The decreasing volume during the Pennant formation indicates a genuine buildup, reinforcing the likelihood of a continued upward trajectory.
The 5-year chart unveils key resistance levels influencing short-term movements, with a target set around the US$9 mark. Moreover, the long-term 16-year chart hints at a large base pattern forming since 2013, signaling a possible breakthrough above US$9 – US$10 resistance levels and a substantial upward potential, especially amidst favorable gold market conditions.
Investment Recommendation
Perpetua Resources is deemed a Buy across various timelines, presenting an appealing opportunity for rapid gains. Setting a stop loss below the Pennant boundary can mitigate risks in case of unexpected downturns.
While unlikely, any adverse scenario involving a withdrawal of the promised financing could impact the stock negatively. Nevertheless, such a situation seems improbable given the current circumstances.
