3. Anglogold Ashanti PLC (NYSE:AU)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders In Q3 2024: 21

Anglogold Ashanti PLC (NYSE:AU) is a gold mining company.

It is up solidly so far in 2025 after its $2.5 billion acquisition of Centamin in late 2024. It added the Sukari mine in Egypt and has been boosting financials. Analysts think the deal will boost annual production by half a million ounces.

Of course, gold itself has been up quite a bit so far this year, so combined with the above development, this has translated into solid gains for the stock so far in 2025. In Q3, it reported steady production and cost controls, with a focus on debt reduction (debt-to-equity ratio: 0.46).

The consensus price target of $31.75 implies 1.81% upside.

AU stock is up 35.18% year-to-date.
