On August 7, Anglogold Ashanti rose 9.69% in regular trading, trading at $97.0/share, with turnover of $36.69 million. The rally was driven by broad-based strength across the gold sector combined with continued oversold recovery following the company's Q2 earnings release.

The gold mining sector saw significant gains, with B2Gold up 11.25%, Agnico Eagle Mines up 7.41%, Coeur Mining up 7.22%, Newmont Mining up 5.81%, and Barrick Mining up 5.70%, reflecting strong sector-wide momentum.

On July 31, the company reported Q2 headline earnings of $1.98 per share versus analyst expectations of $2.38, and gold income of $3.03 billion versus an expected $3.20 billion. Despite the miss, the company maintained its full-year production and cost guidance unchanged and indicated that unit costs are expected to decline in H2 as production scales up. Additionally, a $2.89/share dividend and a $2 billion share repurchase plan approved at the shareholder meeting continue to provide price support.
