WAF share price and gold price actions

So, the world now has both inflation and war going on. Gold price has risen a bit but apparrently capped. However, WAF and most of other miners have not benefited from this rise. Apart from conventional "manipulation" theory, what could be the other possible causes?

For gold price capping and shorting, is there a possibility that instos expect Russion might have to sell gold to finance the war and their governments? Addition to the interest of western governments to undermine Russion at all aspects?

For the miners, people are scared due to the POG concern to get in or hold?
