Gold miners and related stocks were weak on Monday, with popular names like Newmont Mining Corporation (NYSE: NEM), Barrick Gold Corporation (NYSE: ABX), Goldcorp Inc. (NYSE: GG), Yamana Gold, Inc. (NYSE: AUY) and others in the red. The decline in gold-related equities came as gold prices slumped to $1220/oz ahead of Friday's critical jobs report and other key economic data later this week. If positive, Friday's data could set the stage for the Fed to taper in December. This is viewed as a negative for precious metals.
