Coeur Mining (CDE) saw its stock price plummet 9.18% in Monday's trading session, as the broader gold market experienced a significant sell-off. The steep decline in Coeur Mining's shares reflects the challenges facing gold mining companies amid falling gold prices.

The precious metal's value dropped as much as 1.8% in early Asian trading, reaching around $3,265 an ounce. This decline was primarily attributed to signs of progress in trade talks between the United States and China, as well as easing geopolitical tensions. Both factors diminished gold's appeal as a safe-haven asset. The strengthening US dollar further contributed to gold's downward pressure, making it more expensive for most buyers.

The impact of falling gold prices was felt across the mining sector, with several major gold stocks experiencing significant drops in overnight trading. Industry peers such as Harmony Gold and Gold Fields fell 6%, while Agnico Eagle Mines and Newmont Mining declined 4%. While Coeur Mining was not specifically mentioned in the industry-wide report, its substantial stock price decrease aligns with the broader trend affecting gold mining companies in response to the weakening gold market.
