Ninepoint Partners LP launched new Canadian single-stock HighShares and CoreShares ETFs, announcing anticipated initial monthly distributions to be paid on May 7, 2026. The ETFs track companies including Constellation Software, Celestica, and Kinross Gold with monthly distribution amounts ranging from $0.04 to $0.21 per share.

Kinross Gold Corporation strongly recommends shareholders reject an unsolicited mini-tender offer from TRC Capital Investment Corporation to purchase 2.5 million shares at C$41.75 per share, which is approximately 4.4% below the market price of C$43.68. Kinross warns that mini-tender offers are designed to avoid regulatory disclosure requirements and cautions investors to compare offer prices with current market prices.

Kinross Gold Corporation announced that it will release its Q1 2026 financial results on April 29, 2026, followed by a conference call on April 30, 2026. The company will also hold its Annual Meeting of Shareholders virtually on April 30, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. EDT. Meeting materials and voting instructions are now available to shareholders.

Kinross Gold Corporation has received TSX approval to renew its normal course issuer bid (NCIB) program, authorizing the repurchase of up to 104.2 million common shares (10% of public float) through March 23, 2027. The company plans to use this program alongside its quarterly dividend to enhance shareholder returns, supported by its investment-grade balance sheet and strong free cash flow generation.

Gold prices have fallen below $5,000 despite geopolitical tensions, as investors sell the metal to cover losses in declining stock markets and the strengthening US dollar makes it more expensive globally. However, analysts view this weakness as a buying opportunity for gold stocks, which have plunged 16.6-27.3% over two weeks but could rebound 31.9-83.3% if gold resumes its upward trend. Central bank buying and inflation concerns remain supportive factors.

Ninepoint Partners has filed a preliminary prospectus for nine new single-stock ETFs, expanding its HighShares lineup to include U.S. companies like NVIDIA, Tesla, Alphabet, and Intel, alongside Canadian stocks. The firm is also introducing CoreShares ETFs with a competitive 0.29% management fee and monthly income distributions.

Kinross Gold Corporation has exercised 3,787,118 common share purchase warrants in Eminent Gold Corp., increasing its ownership stake to 13.8% on a non-diluted basis. The warrant exercise generated C$2,650,983 in gross proceeds for Eminent, which plans to use the funds to resume drilling at its Hot Springs Range Project and advance its Celts project. Kinross also received additional incentive warrants as part of the transaction.

Kinross Gold Corporation's Board of Directors has approved a 14% increase to its dividend, bringing the annualized dividend to $0.16 per share. This follows a previous increase announced in November 2025, representing a cumulative 33% increase since Q3 2025. The company also approved a quarterly dividend of $0.04 per share payable on March 26, 2026.

Gold prices have surged with tight physical supply, making mining stocks more attractive than physical gold. The article highlights several precious metals companies as strong investment opportunities, including Hecla Mining, First Majestic Silver, Alamos Gold, Kinross Gold, and Eldorado Gold. CF Industries is also discussed as a cyclical fertilizer play benefiting from strong farming demand.

Despite gold falling over $600 from its January peak of $5,600/oz following Kevin Warsh's Fed nomination, precious metals remain attractive to investors in 2026. Gold mining stocks have surged 147% in the past year. Three standout companies are highlighted: Hecla Mining (dual gold/silver focus with 300% gains), Coeur Mining (pursuing M&A strategy with New Gold acquisition), and Kinross Gold (record free cash flow of $687M in Q3 2025 with 185% annual gains).

Nova Minerals announced plans to redomicile from Australia to the United States by end of June 2026 following loss of foreign private issuer status due to majority U.S. ownership. The company will pursue acquisition of the remaining 15% stake in its Estelle Gold and Critical Minerals Project in Alaska to achieve 100% ownership, and is searching for a U.S.-based CFO with mining and GAAP accounting experience as current CFO Michael Melamed resigns effective April 30, 2026.

Eminent Gold Corp. announced the appointment of Ivan Bebek as Strategic Advisor for Corporate Development and Finance.
