Schon im Newmont Thread gepostet, aber da diese Meldung bzw. ein Zustandekommen dieses Deals den gesamten Gold- und Minenmarkt extrem beinflussen würde , hier noch mal.
Wie Bußler heute erwähnte: Ein Goldproduzent solch einer Größe hätte es in der Hand, etwaigen POG Drückungen durch Produktionskürzungen oder Einbehaltung von Physischem massivst entgegenzuwirken. Was das für den POG bedeutet, kann sich jeder ausmalen.
Barrick Gold confirms 'review' of possible merger with Newmont Mining

Barrick Gold (GOLD -1.4%) acknowledges it has reviewed the possibility of a merger with Newmont Mining (NEM +2.3%) in an all-stock transaction, confirming an earlier Bloomberg report.
The chief executives of the two miners and Newcrest Mining (OTCPK:NCMGY), which was mentioned as a potential partner in a merger deal, all will be in Florida next week for a BMO Capital Markets mining conference; "the timing is interesting," says BMO analyst Andrew Kaip.
Barrick and Newmont have come close to merging before, as talks in 2014 broke down over disagreements on deal terms; the two companies also have discussed a joint venture for their Nevada operations.
Goldcorp (NYSE:GG), which is being bought by Newmont, opens -2.9%.
If the deal is nixed, Newmont would be entitled to a $350M break fee and Goldcorp would be entitled to a $650M break fee.
