Pan American Silver Corp (PAAS) saw a price increase of 5.02% as it crossed above its 5-day SMA, reflecting positive momentum in the silver market. The surge in silver prices, which rose by 35% in December, has created a favorable environment for silver mining stocks, despite some skepticism about the sustainability of these gains. This context suggests that investors are beginning to recognize the potential undervaluation of silver mining stocks, positioning PAAS for further growth as market sentiment shifts positively.
Analyst Views on PAAS
Wall Street analysts forecast PAAS stock price to fall over the next 12 months. According to Wall Street analysts, the average 1-year price target for PAAS is 49.70 USD with a low forecast of 43.19 USD and a high forecast of 55.00 USD. However, analyst price targets are subjective and often lag stock prices, so investors should focus on the objective reasons behind analyst rating changes, which better reflect the company's fundamentals.
