Email Address KOS Stock News HeadlinesWhere Kosmos Energy Stands With AnalystsDecember 19, 2024 | benzinga.comForm 8.3 - Kosmos Energy Ltd.December 17, 2024 | finance.yahoo.comWhy I'm telling friends to avoid gold stocksBack in November, gold made a tiny move of 1.6%. But according to my backtesting by using a special type of gold trade, I would have seen a 141% gain in just a week. It happened again in March. Gold nudged up 1.2%. This time? A 104% overnight gain. And in June? A 1% gold move turned into a 74% gain in two weeks. Granted, there would have been smaller wins and those that did not work out, but you see, there's a reason I'm telling all my friends to hold off from buying gold or regular gold stocks right now. There's a more lucrative way to play the gold market as we enter a new breakout period. It's all about catching what I call "Acceleration Cycles."December 24, 2024 | DTI (Ad)Kosmos Energy in early talks for Tullow Oil takeoverDecember 12, 2024 | msn.comKosmos Energy reports sub-commercial find in Equatorial GuineaDecember 1, 2024 | uk.investing.com5 Stocks to Snag Now as Dealmaking Returns to Wall StreetNovember 21, 2024 | msn.comVital Energy’s Strategic Shift and Valuation Imbalance: Hold Rating Maintained Amidst Investor SkepticismNovember 8, 2024 | markets.businessinsider.comKosmos price target lowered to $7 from $8 at BenchmarkNovember 6, 2024 | markets.businessinsider.comSee More Headlines KOS Stock Analysis - Frequently Asked Questions How have KOS shares performed this year?
