Experts that have talked about Iamgold Corp

Comment6.080Bruce CampbellLatest news release that they will be able to mine in Ecuador was positive. Sold their Peruvian position to Rio Alto, which was also positive. Has a project in Ecuador that is to come on stream in 2010. Current production is fairly high cost. If gold where to go back over $1000 this will probably do quite well.2008-05-09
BUY7.250Bruce CampbellHas hugely lagged the gold group. Operating costs of $4.27 is historically quite high but thinks it is a takeover candidate. This would be the first one of his golds that he would sell.2008-04-11
DON'T BUY7.370Michael SmedleyIt is generally thought to be negative and he uses the term “generally” because he is not heavily into this one. Not considered a favourite. He is bullish on gold.2008-04-01
DON'T BUY8.180David BurrowsA really volatile stock that has not been able to get going. His concern is that a lot of the assets are in Africa, which is less stable politically. He doesn't like the price action on this one.2008-03-03
HOLD7.960Robert FloydHas been a little bit of a disappointment recently. Had some permitting issues in French Guyana and are trying to sort through it. Also had a few production issues. Think they can gain further growth in their production but will be more modest. What you need to see our higher gold prices.2008-02-29
BUY7.410Dennis Dasilva(Market Call Minute.) French Guyana was obviously a major setback but it has gotten too cheap given what it represents for NAV.2008-02-25
DON'T BUY7.860Brendan CaldwellGold has gone over $900 an ounce and yet this stock is languishing at lower prices than it was a year ago. Prefers gold stocks that are doing well in a strong old market.2008-02-01
TOP PICK8.900Bruce CampbellThe only gold stock that is lower than what it was a year ago. Got hit by higher costs. Has really good leverage with over with over 1 million ounces of production coming. Still has a bit of catch-up to the others.2008-01-23
BUY9.200John StephensonSome of their production is a little further out, which could be why they are lagging. It could play some catch-up here. Other golds have moved ahead on the stronger bullion. Good management. 2008-01-08
Comment8.090Bruce CampbellPrimarily a gold play with South American and Quebec very high production costs. If gold moves to $900, these guys have a great leverage. A large project that starts in Ecuador in 2009. Also produces niobium, an industrial metal that has gone up in price. This was his last purchase in golds but will also be his first sale.2007-12-31
DON'T BUY8.690John O'Connell, CFAGold prices are very strong and this company is struggling to make new highs. We prefer the major players such as American Barrick (ABX-T) and Goldcorp (G-T). Perhaps Newmont Mining (NMC-T) for US$ exposure.2007-12-10
BUY8.760Bruce CampbellIt is the highest cost of the senior producers and most leveraged to higher prices. If you like gold, it is a Buy.2007-11-22
BUY8.730Robert Cohen B.A.Sc., MBA, CFAAbout 25% of their cash flow last year came from niobium (a metal to strengthen steel) out of Quebec. Thinks their 4th quarter cash flow will be even better. Also has gold in Ecuador and Surinam.2007-11-16
HOLD8.680Bill BelovayHas been making a lot of money out of Nairobi. Have a project in Quebec, which is responsible for about 25%-30% of its profits. Have had some problems meeting estimates in their mining operations. Latest quarter seems to indicate the wheels are back on the track.2007-11-13
BUY8.210Brian Acker, CAHe held it once in the past year. He only buys the top 100 in the TSX. His model price is $12.70, a 53% positive differential.2007-11-01
BUY8.180Dennis DasilvaA core position in their portfolio. Thinks it's undervalued. In the "show me" state. Market is waiting to see them develop their assets, on time, and on budget, and lower their costs and cash costs, after their large acquisition. He likes it because of the value proposition that it offers for the portfolio.2007-10-30
TOP PICK8.150Bruce CampbellHas by far the cheapest valuation. The only gold with a one year negative return. A billion ounce producer trading at 1.7 times net asset value whereas Barrick for instance trades at almost 3 times. So you are getting it at a 50% discount. Once decent quarter will get it at 11 or 12 dollars.2007-10-24
DON'T BUY8.460Bruce CampbellHas been tempted to on this one over the last few months, but ended up not buying. Of the intermediates, this one has the highest costs. Future growth will come from Ecuador, which could be a concern.2007-09-25
BUY8.920Brian Acker, CA41% upside. Only concentrate on top 100, it’s a buy2007-09-20
VAGUE8.920Peter HodsonSomeone should merge with this company. Very cheap, because they’re not dominant controller of they’re assets, diverse asset base. Not favourite name. 2007-09-20
DON'T BUY8.340David BurrowsReally likes the precious metal space. Has been under-performer. Not impossible the company could be bought. Prefers Goldcorp. Looks attractive for sector.2007-09-19
BUY8.050Robert Cohen B.A.Sc., MBA, CFAStill getting through digesting the Cambior acquisition. Had some operational difficulties. There are a few sources of upside including 1) Westwood discovery, which will extend the life of the Doyon mine 2) niobium mine in Quebec with their long-term con2007-09-06
HOLD8.810Michael SprungHasn't looked at the production or earnings numbers to be able to give a definitive answer but doesn't feel this is a bad price.2007-07-13
DON'T BUY8.280David BurrowsWe are in a later stage of a bull market and the gold sector is not participating. You're risking dead money and opportunity costs. He doesn't own any golds.2007-06-22
Comment8.060Michael SprungGoal is something to have in your portfolio, although he hasn't bought IMG. Earnings forecast going forward is quite flat, although their production is going up. The problem is due to the raising cash costs for producing the gold.He likes GoldCorp instead.2007-06-15
DON'T BUY7.860Brian Acker, CAThe price of gold has gone up, but the cost of production has been going up faster. Earnings here are getting crushed. The cost of fuel, labor, trucks etc. The model price has come down from $15 to around $12, which is still over the current price, but it's coming down so he wouldn't buy.2007-06-07
Comment8.080Bruce CampbellThe cheapest of the top 15 North America gold companies by size. The other gold companies will move first, this one will lag, so buy the others first, take your profits, buy this one. 2007-06-05
WATCH7.800Paul VanEedenGood company, has some very good assets. Some political worries in Equidor are keeping the stock down. Could go up to $11 by the end of the year, but he's staying out.2007-05-31
SELL7.170Michael SprungHas been a little bit more dramatic on the downside compared to its peers. Expect there are cost pressures in their operations.2007-05-28
BUY9.330Kenneth P. Norquay, CMTGolds are starting to lift off. If you are a short-term trader, use a stop loss at about $9. This has a low risk but the reward could be excellent. Also watch for volume.2007-04-17
BUY9.490Dennis DasilvaHad a labour dispute, which is now over. Still digesting the Cambior acquisition. Cost structure is higher than what most would like to see. He likes, because it trades at a discount to its NAV and its peer group. Expects good growth.2007-04-05
HOLD9.070Michael SmedleyProbably all right. He believes in gold and this one has staying power.2007-03-23
BUY8.630Neil WickhamGood management. Getting to be a significant size with its latest acquisition. Has a rising production outlook, which he likes.2007-03-20
DON'T BUY8.850Michael SprungHave some big things to swallow right now since they acquired Canbior (CBI-T). The price of the stock has been falling as analysts have been forecasting significant increases in their cash costs. Too expensive for him right now.2007-03-16
Comment9.160Greg McCoachA good company. Any of the major producers are faced with higher mining costs. Feel they will get things worked out.2007-03-08
DON'T BUY10.550David BurrowsHas been dead money. Not performing in line with the group.2007-02-20
WEAK BUY10.110John EmbryNow it has become an operator, which is good. Their big exploration project is in Ecuador with a government that is a little questionable. There is nothing in this stock that turns him on other than that it is not expensive.2007-02-08
BUY10.980John EmbryWas disappointed when they paid such a hefty premium for Cambrior, but now that it has shaken out, it may actually be an accretive acquisition. Not a bad package.2006-11-30
BUY10.490Bill BelovayWith their acquisition of Canbrior, it makes them a producer, rather than just a holder.2006-11-29
BUY10.440Bruce CampbellWould call them a big intermediate. If you are positive on gold, this is the kind that will do well over the next year or so.2006-11-15
Comment9.600Robert Cohen B.A.Sc., MBA, CFAMerging with Cambior which holds some decent assets. Longer term, there is some shareholder value to be created, but they have to prove themselves.2006-10-04
BUY11.860Bruce CampbellHad a bit of a breakout in the last couple of weeks, recognition of mid-cap gold companies because of growth in production and may be big enough to get revalued for liquidity. Good leverage to upside in gold prices.2006-08-25
WEAK BUY11.020Robert FloydBulk of the revenues is really on royalties. Have tried to make some acquisitions in the past but haven't been that successful. Well run and will benefit from a higher gold price.2006-08-02
WEAK BUY9.430David BurrowsIf a resource at stock is going to hold in a rally, it should hold in the rally from around the 200-day moving average. This would be a potential candidate. You are speculating that there is another leg higher.2006-06-27
BUY10.740Ron MeiselsThe way gold is behaving and the fact that there are institutions that do not have a full position in gold stocks, gold stocks will be moving higher and he feels gold will reach $1200. This one has just had a major breakout. An excellent price.2006-04-24
BUY9.300Gavin GrahamWent up on speculation of a takeover, but has now settled back. As long as they are producing gold profitably, they should be fine. Acquiring smaller mines.2006-03-20
VAGUE9.680Bill BelovayIamgold seems to have lots of mines in different countries. Going through the stage of being a producer as well as an explorer. 2006-03-14
DON'T BUY7.950David BurrowsLikes the golds. This one has not been one of the better performers. If we get into another leg in this bull market in the gold shares, this one will participate, but doesn't think it's the #1 pick. Would prefer a Goldcorp (G-T) or a Barrick (ABX-T).2005-10-26
DON'T BUY8.250David BaskinIf he has an interst in gold, it would tend to be big caps. The smaller the company, the more volatility you get.2005-10-06
BUY on WEAKNESS8.750Larry Berman CFA, CMT, CTALike most gold stocks, it's starting to run into overhead resistance. Has a nice channel which should continue to play out and move higher. Any pull back to support and trend line is a good buying opportunity.2005-09-28
BUY7.870Ron MeiselsThis one and gold stocks in general are going to be very, very attractive. Gold is contra cyclical and will do well in the 2nd half of the bull market which is where we are now. Downside risk is roughly $7 and your upside potential is around $12.2005-07-29
BUY8.860Gavin GrahamThe deal between Iamgold, Harmony and Gold Fields is still not settled. The deal with Gold Fields looked good and then Harmony came and is trying to take over Gold Fields.2004-11-08
HOLD9.030John EmbryMerging assets with Gold Fields At a good price.2004-11-01
DON'T BUY9.190John ZechnerNot sure if there will still be a merger with Goldfields. Better off with a Placer, Barrick or Meridian.2004-10-27
HOLD7.250Robert LyonMerger with Wheaton River fell through. They both have to do something in order to get bigger and get investor interest. Good properties and good cash costs. Still some expectations of a transaction of some kind.2004-08-05
DON'T BUY8.370Ian NakamotoWasn't crazy about the purchase of Wheaton Minerals because of the cost. Would prefer others.2004-04-06
DON'T BUY8.380Bruce CampbellMerging with Wheaton River which is a slight negative because it is somewhat dilutive. Not much upside.2004-04-01
DON'T BUY8.380Bill CarriganGold stocks enjoyed the first cycle advance. Now getting a bottom and may again get up to the top, so it doesn't think there's a lot in it. Would avoid this group in this cycle and go into the larger ones instead.2004-04-01
BUY8.910Robert Cohen B.A.Sc., MBA, CFARight sized company for take out stock. Great valued stock. Terrific management.2004-02-02
BUY8.910Robert Cohen B.A.Sc., MBA, CFARight size as a take-out stock.Great leverage to gold price.2004-01-23
BUY8.860David BurrowsPrefer Iamgold and Eldorado to small caps. Where US investors will buy.2003-10-21
PAST TOP PICK6.550John Embry(Was a top pick on May 8/03. Down 11%.) Stock has been a disappointment. Good balance sheet.2003-07-16
BUY6.560John EmbryProjects in West Africa. Well cashed up. Nice base of gold projects.2003-06-24
BUY6.850Gavin GrahamGold stocks have been lagging the gold price. Every portfolio should have 5% gold.2003-06-18
TOP PICK7.350John EmbryMines in Ghana and Mali. The best value in intermediate mines. Lots of cash. Cheap.2003-05-08
PAST TOP PICK6.370John EmbryWas a top pick on Dec 3. Up 20%) Still likes. Most interesting in mid cap mines. Profitable.2003-04-08

PAST TOP PICK7.820John Embry(Was a top pick on Nov 4. Up 57.5%.) Still likes. Still undervaled.2003-01-29
WEAK BUY7.710Bruce CampbellMerger with Repadre gives more geographic diversification. A fine stock.2003-01-17
BUY7.050David BurrowsThe merger withRepadre is good.2002-12-16
TOP PICK5.170John EmbryWell managed. Merger should be completed soon.2002-12-03
TOP PICK5.160John EmbryMerging with Repadre. Clean company.2002-11-04
BUY8.000John EmbryGood partnership. Debt has been replayed.2002-06-05
DON'T BUY5.500Bruce CooperA one trick pony. Very risky. Product has taken too long to develop.2002-05-17
BUY7.150Bob BoazLikes better than Glamis.2002-05-08
BUY4.950John EmbryGood jr. gold.2002-01-21
BUY3.100John EmbryVery cheap.2001-06-12
BUY2.250John EmbryFundamentals are good.2 principals periodically sell shares, keeping price down, but if gold takes off, it should be good2001-01-15
