# Weekly Recap | Wheaton Precious -2.02%, most brokers rate it buy

## The Week

Wheaton Precious (WPM) fell 2.02% this week to close at $151.01, underperforming the S&P 500, which slipped 0.08%, by about 1.94 percentage points. Price action was choppy: shares opened at $148.26 on Monday, drifted lower to an intraweek low of $144.06 on Wednesday, bounced to $152.20 on Thursday, then faded to $151.01 on Friday. The week’s range was 6.17%, with overall trading activity cooling.\\n\\n## Key Events\\n\\nThe main company thread this week centred on 2030 production targets and project funding. An analyst rating update on Tuesday set the tone, and Thursday brought a cluster of announcements: management outlined disciplined growth, robust risk management, and sustainability as drivers for a 50% production increase by 2030, requiring no additional capital. The company also confirmed funding for Ontario’s Marathon copper-palladium project. Late in the week, a new buy rating added to the expansionary narrative.\\n\\n## Analyst Ratings\\n\\nCoverage on WPM stands at 17 firms: 11 rate it buy, 5 overweight, and 1 has no opinion, with no neutral, underweight, or sell ratings. The consensus rating is strong buy, with a consensus target price of $178.111, about 17.95% above the spot price. Targets range from a low of $153.000 to a high of $224.110, showing wide dispersion. Among 49 gold-industry names, WPM ranks 5th in analyst rating.\\n\\n## The Week Ahead\\n\\nNext week’s macro calendar is busy: the Richmond Fed composite index lands on 22 September, followed by EIA weekly crude and Cushing crude stockpiles on 23 September. On 24 September, initial jobless claims, the current account deficit, new home sales, and EIA natural gas storage are all due. Company-wise, Wheaton Precious reports Q3 FY2026 results after market close on 5 November, a later checkpoint for output and earnings delivery.\\n\\n## In Short\\n\\nShares pulled back this week, yet the consensus view from brokers stays at strong buy, with a roughly 17.95% gap to target, while management pushes an expansionary story around output growth and project funding. Valuation sits at about 33.4x P/E and 7.1x P/B. The tension is between the short-term price slide and a still-optimistic ratings backdrop plus growth narrative; the next test is macro data spillover into gold and whether the 2030 production goal looks achievable.\\n\\n*This article is generated by LongbridgeAI from market data, for information only and not investment advice.*
