Santacruz Silver Mining came into this earnings print on a tear, with the stock up about 47% over the past month and sitting at CA$12.26 at Thursday’s close. The headline today is not revenue growth. It is the sharp squeeze in profitability, with Q2 basic earnings per share at US$0.02 on net income of US$2.0 million, a fraction of Q1’s profit base.

Melcor Developments stock closed at CA$18.50 heading into the Q2 print, after a flat 7 day move and a softer 30 day patch. The headline is simple.
