Yo Dutchman: Not too big, just inefficientNEM just received a wake-up call recently suggesting that they needed to examine their cost structure. I would imagine that the effects of the flattening of the executive ranks would begin to be visible in Q1 2025. In addition, it takes time to properly assess the policies and procedures of the acquired properties. Some, no doubt, are appropriate and will be continued. Others, will be amended and enhanced so as to provide optimum benefit. Just purchase as many shares as you can while it is on sale and you will be fine in the longer run. Lastly, don't forget about the PE being at or near 12ish, the secure dividend and the buyback program. There is a lot to be happy about with NEM.
