While insider buying is typically slower when markets are near all-time highs and when earnings-reporting season is in full swing, it never seems to dry up altogether.
Hycroft Mining (HYMC) owns a massive, underexplored gold-silver deposit in Nevada, well-positioned for the current precious metals bull market. HYMC's disciplined execution is evident in narrowing losses, a strengthened $129M cash position, and ongoing high-grade silver discoveries with significant exploration upside. Despite development-stage risks and recent dilution, current valuation offers deep discount versus peers, with major upside if even a fraction of resources are monetized.
Hycroft Mining offers a highly speculative, asymmetric upside play on gold, with vast undeveloped reserves and significant leverage to rising gold prices. Recent $3.50/unit share offering and insider participation signal confidence above current levels, while exploration and metallurgical results in 2025 could be major catalysts. Compared to Vista Gold, HYMC has larger reserves and greater optionality, but carries higher risk, volatility, and dependence on successful project optimization.
