Behaviour On Record

What IAG's own history says about today's numbers

vs 200-day average

Up days (1y)
49%

Iamgold Corporation is currently running 36.7% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against IAG's own 13 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 9th percentile — unusually subdued by its own history, against a typical reading of 54.8%. The distinction matters because a number that looks calm for one stock is turbulent for another, and the absolute figure on its own tells you neither.

IAG is trading -25.3% below its running peak. Across 12 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -44.1%, and the deepest was -73.5% in 2022. The current pullback is therefore shallower than what this stock gives back in a typical year, which is context worth having before treating it as a dislocation.

Price sits +0.6% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 46th percentile — close to the gap it normally carries. Over the past year IAG closed higher on 49% of sessions, and it is currently 1 session into a falling streak.

On October specifically: over 13 years of records, IAG finished the month higher 8 of 13 times, with a median return of +3.4% and an average of +3.2%. Its strongest month historically has been April at +5.5% on average, its weakest September at -2.4%. Seasonality is a weak signal on its own — a decade is a small sample and regimes change — but it is a real distribution rather than a rule of thumb.

Overnight risk is measurable too: IAG has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 653 of 3,267 sessions (20.0% of the time), with the largest gaps running +16.1% and -10.5%. For anyone holding through an event, that rate is a better guide to overnight exposure than the intraday range.

All figures computed from 3,268 daily closes between 2013-10-07 and 2026-10-05, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against IAG's own 13-year history, not a peer group or index.

What did this article say?
Iamgold Corporation (IAG) announced it will prioritize operational optimization and mine‑life extensions over pursuing mergers and acquisitions. The company plans technical studies at its Côté Gold, Essakane, Westwood, and Nelligan sites over the next 12 to 18 months. At Côté Gold, IAG intends to increase processing capacity from 36,000 to 40,000 tonnes per day, while Essakane studies aim to extend open‑pit operations into 2034–35 and evaluate underground mining potential. The firm also targets a 200,000‑ounce annual output at Westwood and a 400,000‑ounce development at Nelligan, using cash flow from Essakane to fund share repurchases.
What did this article say?
IAMGOLD (IAG) has been identified by ChartMill as having a high‑quality breakout setup, with a top technical rating and clear support and resistance zones. The analysis highlights key breakout levels that could trigger a significant move if the price breaks above the identified resistance. The risk framing suggests that a failure to breach the resistance would likely result in a retracement to the next support level.
What did this article say?
Iamgold (NYSE:IAG) has delivered an average annual return of 17.5% over the past decade, outperforming the broader market by nearly 4% annually. The company’s market cap stands at $11.96 billion, reflecting steady investor confidence. While the data highlights historical strength, it does not signal an immediate change in valuation or upcoming catalysts.
What did this article say?
Iamgold (NYSE:IAG) has posted a 43.31% five‑year cumulative return, translating to an average annualized gain of 55.17%. The stock’s performance has outpaced the broader market, underscoring its strong growth trajectory. With a current market cap of $11.49 billion, Iamgold remains a solid play for investors seeking commodity‑driven upside.
What did this article say?
Iamgold’s valuation remains deeply discounted, with EV/EBITDA and price‑to‑cash‑flow multiples 40% below sector medians, yet the company’s 20‑plus‑million‑ounce Côté/Gosselin deposit is poised for a Q4 technical report that could serve as a catalyst. Management is focusing on low‑cost, high‑return debottlenecking before larger capital outlays, supporting a disciplined expansion strategy. The buy recommendation reflects confidence that the valuation gap will narrow as production ramps up and costs are controlled.
What did this article say?
IAMGOLD (IAG) has been named to the TSX30 for a second straight year, reflecting a 541% dividend‑adjusted share price gain over the past three years. The company attributes this performance to its Canadian‑focused portfolio, strong balance sheet, and growing free cash flow. Management highlights continued growth at Côté Gold, underground expansion at Westwood, and extended mine life at Essakane as key future drivers. The recognition signals robust operational discipline and positions IAG favorably for future capital allocation and shareholder returns.
What did this article say?
IAG’s share price has surged 233% over five years, yet current multiples and a low value score temper enthusiasm. An Excess Returns model still flags meaningful upside, suggesting the market may have priced in some of the long‑term run. The company’s recent focus on wealth‑management expansion, notably the RF Capital acquisition, could support future fee growth and justify a higher valuation. Investors are weighing whether the current price reflects the full potential of these initiatives.
