Shares of HYMC have gained 124.2% in price year-to-date and 256.4% over the past month, thanks to bullish investor sentiment surrounding precious metals amid continuing market weakness.
However, because the Fed Reserves’ interest rate hike increase yesterday strengthens the U.S. dollar, gold prices are expected to fall slightly in the near term.
