We recently published 10 Stocks Delivering Double-Digit Gains Effortlessly; 4 Hit Highs. Americas Gold and Silver Corporation (NYSEAmerican:USAS) was one of the best performers on Thursday.

Americas Gold and Silver rallied to a 52-week high on Thursday as investor sentiment was buoyed by the non-stop record runs in spot prices of silver and gold, supported by its strong production results last year.

At intra-day trading, Americas Gold and Silver Corporation (NYSEAmerican:USAS) jumped to its highest price of $8.59, mirroring an industry rally, before trimming gains to end the day just up by 18.93 percent at $8.48 apiece.

This followed spot gold’s climb to the $4,900 territory, alongside silver’s jump to nearly $97 on the same day, with investors remaining bullish on the precious metals amid ongoing geopolitical tensions.

Further fueling the sentiment was a record silver production last year, having recorded 2.65 million ounces, up 52 percent from 1.74 million ounces in 2024.

Its Cosala operations in Mexico alone achieved a new annual production record of 1.19 million ounces, driven by a record quarter output of 463,000 ounces for the fourth quarter of 2025.

“We capped off a highly successful and transformative 2025 with a 52 percent increase in attributable silver production to 2.65 million ounces—achieved in a robust and rising silver price environment that significantly amplifies the revenue and cash flow benefits of our expanded output,” said Chairman and CEO Paul Andre Huet.
