Silvercorp Metals shares are sliding as investors react to a fresh downgrade from Roth MKM, which cut its rating to Hold and cooled sentiment around the stock. This company-specific call is hitting the shares even as spot silver prices remain elevated near $80 per ounce, limiting the usual support from strong metal prices.
The analyst move comes on top of lingering weakness from a recent silver-sector selloff, sparked by disappointing earnings from peers such as First Majestic. While some mining stocks have started to stabilize, Silvercorp Metals continues to lag, with the downgrade seen as the main driver of its sharper downside move versus the broader group.
