Why Hudbay Minerals Stock Is Soaring Today

Shares of Hudbay Minerals (NYSE: HBM) had surged more than 10% by 10:45 a.m. EDT on Wednesday. Driving up the mining stock was its stronger-than-expected second-quarter results.  

Hudbay Minerals reported an adjusted loss of $0.15 per share, a $0.05 per share improvement from what analysts expected.
