Nasdaq Market Updates & Insights

Where Nasdaq market updates and insights meet the investors and miners raising capital in New York

Latest Nasdaq Market News

Overview

This page follows Nasdaq market updates and insights for the resource companies that choose a New York listing over, or alongside, Sydney and Toronto.

The Nasdaq is known for technology. Yet a small and growing group of miners now trade there, and most are chasing one thing: American capital for critical minerals.

Why miners choose a Nasdaq listing

A Nasdaq ticker opens the door to the deepest pool of investors in the world.

Companies working United States ground gain something extra from a New York listing: proximity to the agencies and money pools now shoring up domestic supply.

Critical minerals drive the Nasdaq mining story

Antimony, tungsten, rare earths and silver sit at the centre of it.

Perpetua Resources (Nasdaq: PPTA) is the clearest case. Its Stibnite Gold Project in Idaho holds the only identified United States reserve of antimony, and the company secured a US$255 million investment from Agnico Eagle and JPMorgan toward construction, with first production targeted for late 2029.

Silver miner Santacruz Silver (Nasdaq: SCZM) shows the other side of the market: a company already in production rather than a development story.

What Nasdaq market news moves these stocks

Permits, offtake deals, drill results and financing terms do most of the work.

Policy out of the capital moves the needle here far more than it does on the ASX. It is possible that a defense contract or price floor set by the government for a strategic metal could cause a stock to be revalued in one trading session.
