(ARIS) was in retreat, dropping 23 cents to $5.55 on 2.1 million shares. The company declared earnings of $5.7-million (U.S.), which it pleasantly adjusted to $12.7-million (U.S.), but investors had adjusted their expectations higher still.

Even so, nearly half the drop was the result of poorer production from its Candelaria and Antapaccay operations.
