Sibanye-Stillwater Limited (SBSW) shares are down 3.55% to $4.07 as of 10:56 am on Tuesday, from its previous close of $4.22. The decline comes amid a broader downturn in the precious metals market, with gold prices hitting a two-month low as the U.S. dollar strengthens. This macroeconomic factor is impacting mining stocks, including Sibanye-Stillwater, which is heavily involved in gold mining. Additionally, the company's recent announcement of a one-year wage agreement with unions at its South African gold mines, which includes a 5.5% wage increase, may also be weighing on investor sentiment as it could impact profit margins.
