Kinross Gold posted second quarter earnings after the bell on Wednesday, beating expectations and rising, both during the session and afterhours, as investors continue to pile into gold amid global uncertainty, nervousness, and fear.

Toronto, Canada-based Kinross posted strong second quarter earnings, with adjusted net income more than doubling to $226.5 million, up from $110.4 million in the second quarter of 2010. In an adjusted per share basis, Kinross earned 20 cents, beating Wall Street’s consensus forecast of 17 cents.

Gold has become the new fear gauge, said market chatter Wednesday’s market chatter, and Kinross made the most of it. With gold pushing up against nominal all-time highs, Kinross sold 606,896 ounces of the shiny metal in the second quarter, up 16.8%. Realizing an average price of $1,449 per ounce, Kinross made $973 per ounce sold, up 31%. (Read Gold Hits All-Time High Of $1,778 As JPMorgan Says It Could Test $2,500).

Kinross produced a record 704,447, up 26%, and remains on track to produce 2.6 to 2.7 million ounces by the end of 2011. Adjusted operating cash flow hit $413.1 million, up from $282.5 million.

“Solid performance from our operations – notably Kupol, Maricunga, and Fort Knox – helped Kinross to deliver record production, revenue, and margins in the second quarter amid continuing strong gold prices,” said Tye Burt, president and CEO of Kinross. “Despite industry-wide cost pressures, our second quarter cost of sales remained at the low end of our guidance range,” added Burt.

The company announced a 20% dividend increase, and will pay 6 cents per share on September 30.

Samsung Galaxy S22ultra gets 45W charger

Samsung will bring back the 45W charging standard to its smartphones, starting with the Galaxy S22 Ultra, leakster Roland Quandt reveals. He shared an image of the new PD charger with the model number EP-T4510, which will obviously be sold separately. The travel charger will come with a USB-C to USB-C cable in the retail package, according to the leaked image. If the leakster is correct, this would mean we'll once again see a Galaxy smartphone with 45W charging. The last one was the Galaxy S20 Ultra , introduced in February 2020. Back then the 45W charger would throttle extremely quickly and barely made any difference in charging speeds compared to the 25W one. The current 45W adapter looks very similar, and also comes with a USB-C to USB-C cable. The main difference on the outside is the smaller size of the upcoming EP-T4510 compared to the current EP-TA845XBNG. The included cable will be 1.8 meters long, which is longer than the current 1-meter cable. The cu...

Iphone 14 will have a punch hole display

Reports about Apple bringing a punch-hole screen to the iPhone 14 series are not new , but another insider doubled down on them during the weekend. Mark Gurman, Editor at Bloomberg who specializes in Apple products, revealed in his latest podcast Power On he expects Apple to ditch the notch on some 2022 devices. The new year will also bring us a redesigned MacBook Air with an M2 chip and wireless charging for the 2022 iPad Pro. When/if the iPhone 14 series comes with a punch-hole solution, FaceID will likely make it under the display. Apple has been working on the technology for quite some time, and it is likely to appear during the launch in the fall. Gurman claimed the new M2 chip would be “marginally faster” than the M1. It should have an octa-core CPU and 9- or 10-core GPU, which would be an upgrade over the 8-core GPU on the current Air. A new, internally-developed chip is also expected for the Mac Pro and an AR/VR headset, which is likely to make an appearance at WWD...
