Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. (AEM) is a Canadian mining company focused primarily on gold. In fact, it is the third-largest gold producer in the world, with operations in Canada, Australia, Finland and Mexico. The company expects to produce between 3.33 million and 3.5 million ounces of gold in fiscal year 2025, which is attainable considering 77% of this guidance was produced in the first nine months of the year.

The analyst community has now revised fourth-quarter earnings estimates 25% higher over the past three months. Fourth-quarter earnings are now forecast to jump 96% year-over-year to $2.47 per share, compared to $1.26 per share in the same quarter last year. AEM is a Conservative buy below $190.

Alamos Gold, Inc.

Alamos Gold, Inc. (AGI) is a top producer of precious metals, primarily in Canada and Mexico. The company operates three mines, including two in Canada and one in Mexico, as well as has several projects in the pipeline. Full-year 2025 gold production is anticipated to be between 560,000 ounces and 580,000 ounces.

In the third quarter, strong operations at Mulatos and Island Gold District helped the company’s gold production rise 3% year-over-year to 141,700 ounces. So, Alamos Gold is on track to achieve its full-year production guidance.

Alamos Gold also achieved total third-quarter revenue of $462.3 million and adjusted earnings of $155.5 million, or $0.37 per share. That represented 28.1% year-over-year revenue growth and 99.1% year-over-year earnings growth. Analysts expected total revenue of $491.09 million and adjusted earnings of $0.36 per share.

Fourth-quarter earnings estimates have been revised higher over the past three months. The consensus estimate now calls for earnings of $0.57 per share, or 128% year-over-year earnings growth. Fourth-quarter revenue is also forecast to soar 70% year-over-year to $638.85 million. AGI is a Conservative buy below $43.

Elbit Systems Ltd.

Elbit Systems Ltd. (ESLT) is an Israeli defense contractor that offers a wide range of systems and products – air, land and naval – for defense, homeland security and commercial applications. Demand for its systems and products has driven its backlog to a robust $25.2 billion, primarily thanks to an increase in European orders.

I should add that Elbit Systems plans to pay a quarterly dividend of $0.75 per share on January 5, 2026. All shareholders of record on December 22 will receive the dividend. The stock has a 0.6% dividend yield. ESLT is a Conservative buy below $592.

Seagate Technology Holdings plc

Seagate Technology Holdings plc (STX) was a new addition to the High-Growth Investments Buy List in the December 2025 Monthly Issue. The company develops AI-capable hard drives better than any other company. As a result, it’s a global leader in storage, providing more than four zettabytes of capacity that covers the cloud, the edge and endpoint devices.

For the second quarter in fiscal year 2026, Seagate Technology expects total revenue of about $2.7 billion and earnings of about $2.75 per share. That compares to revenue of $2.33 billion and earnings of $2.03 per share in the second quarter of 2025.
