SSRM Mining Inc. shares surged 11.41% as it crossed above the 5-day SMA, following an upgrade from TD Cowen to a buy rating with a target price of CAD 43.
The upgrade by TD Cowen analyst Steven Green reflects strong bullish sentiment, with the target price indicating a 22% premium over the current price. The analyst highlighted that SSR Mining's stock is compelling amid rising gold prices and improved free cash flow, enhancing its investment appeal compared to peers. Additionally, the reopening of SSR Mining's Çöpler mine, previously suspended due to an industrial accident, could serve as a significant catalyst for future growth, potentially driving the stock price higher.
This upgrade and the positive outlook on gold prices suggest that SSR Mining is well-positioned for growth, especially with forecasts indicating substantial increases in operating cash flow over the next few years.
Wall Street analysts forecast SSRM stock price to fall over the next 12 months. According to Wall Street analysts, the average 1-year price target for SSRM is 25.07 USD with a low forecast of 18.70 USD and a high forecast of 29.00 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.

SSR trades at a discount to peers despite improved free cash flow performance and "offers good torque to the surging gold price," the analyst tells investors.
