Geo Group (GEO) might move higher on growing optimism about its earnings prospects, which is reflected by its upgrade to a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).
GEO made it to the Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) momentum stocks list on October 9th, 2026.
Cerrado Gold (CRDOF) is upgraded to Buy, reflecting improved MDN production and strategic stream buybacks despite ongoing free cash flow deficits. Q2 MDN production reached 15,415 GEO, supporting confidence in the 50,000 GEO annual guidance, but cost control remains critical as AISC rose to $1,933/oz. Mont Sorcier's BFS delay to H1 2027 removes it as a near-term catalyst, increasing the speculative nature of CRDOF and shifting focus to MDN cash flow.
