Price torque

How much more a producer's earnings, cash flow or share price move than the price of the commodity it sells. Because much of a miner's cost is fixed, a 10% rise in the metal price can lift its margin by far more than 10%, and a fall cuts the margin just as sharply. (DataDeep Report on Gold Price Torque)
