Perpetua Resources shares are sliding as traders react to a quarterly earnings miss, insider stock sales, and a technical breakdown that opened a large gap lower on the chart. The pullback is being fueled by growing uncertainty over the final investment decision for the Stibnite Gold Project and a broader shift away from speculative mining plays.
This selling pressure has intensified volatility ahead of key project milestones, keeping the stock under pressure despite some upbeat analyst notes. Recent analysts have even raised their price targets, but those upgrades have not yet been enough to offset the current wave of negative sentiment in the market.
