Anglo American plc Stock (AAL): Dividend Dates, Anglo‑Teck Merger Milestones, and 2026 Copper Forecasts (Dec. 23, 2025)

London-listed Anglo American plc is ending 2025 with its investment story compressed into two big levers: a once-in-a-generation copper market and a once-in-a-generation corporate reshuffle. On December 23, those levers are both moving. The company has published provisional 2026 dividend timetables, while the proposed Anglo‑Teck “merger of equals” has cleared major procedural and political hurdles in Canada—yet still faces the final, fussy gatekeepers of global competition and regulatory approvals. At the same time, copper is flirting with the $12,000/ton level amid supply disruptions and tariff-driven distortions that have split the market into “metal-rich” and “metal-starved” regions.

NatWest Group Plc Stock (NWG) Hits New 52-Week High as Buyback Continues: Today’s News, Analyst Forecasts and 2026 Catalysts

London — December 23, 2025 — NatWest Group Plc stock (LSE: NWG, NYSE ADR: NWG) is back in the spotlight after pushing to a new 52‑week high of 648.80p in today’s trading session, extending a powerful rerating that has lifted the shares by roughly 62% over the past year. Financial Times Markets The rally is happening against a backdrop that should, in theory, make investors more cautious about bank profitability: the Bank of England has just cut rates to 3.75%, mortgage pricing competition is intensifying, and the market is trying to handicap what “normal” earnings look like once the UK

Shell Plc Stock (SHEL) News Today: Buybacks, Oil Price Forecasts, and What to Watch Before Q4 Results

Shell Plc stock is heading into year-end with a familiar mix of forces tugging on the share price: a steady drumbeat of buybacks and project approvals on one side, and a crude market that looks increasingly “range-bound” in the low-$60s with a 2026 oversupply narrative on the other. As of 00:15 UTC on Tuesday, December 23, Shell’s U.S.-listed shares (NYSE: SHEL) traded around $72.58.

BP PLC Stock on Dec. 23, 2025: Share Price, New CEO Meg O’Neill, Castrol Sale Talks, Buybacks, and 2026 Oil Outlook

BP PLC stock is ending 2025 with a familiar mix of Big Oil fundamentals and BP-specific drama: a surprise leadership reset, a high-stakes divestment agenda (with Castrol at the center), and a market that’s trying to price 2026 oil demand against an oversupplied-looking crude backdrop. As of Tuesday, December 23, 2025, investors are digesting what BP’s board appears to be signaling: “more discipline, fewer detours.” The big question for BP shares (LSE: BP. / NYSE: BP) is whether that message translates into higher cash flow, lower net debt, and steadier shareholder returns—or simply another chapter in the company’s multi-year strategic

London’s stock market heads into Tuesday, 23 December 2025, with traders bracing for a quiet session shaped by holiday-thinned liquidity, big moves in precious metals, and a final batch of key U.S. economic releases before Christmas. Early indications from futures markets point to a muted open for the FTSE 100 after Monday’s pullback, with sentiment split between supportive global risk appetite and persistent concerns about the UK’s slowing growth backdrop. lse.co.uk+2Proactiveinvestors NA+2 UK stocks in early trade: FTSE 100 expected near flat after Monday dip Market pricing ahead of the London open suggested a small move lower for the UK’s

Unilever PLC Stock (ULVR, NYSE: UL): Latest News, Forecasts and Analyst Outlook as the Magnum Spin-Off Reshapes the Group (Dec. 23, 2025)

Unilever PLC stock is heading into year-end with a rare combination of “boring-staples” defensive qualities and very non-boring corporate action. The company has now completed the demerger of its ice cream business into The Magnum Ice Cream Company (TMICC) and executed a share consolidation (reverse split) designed to keep per-share metrics comparable post-spin. At the same time, management is pitching a sharper growth story—more beauty and wellbeing, more premium innovation, and a bigger U.S. deal pipeline—while analysts debate whether the “new Unilever” can finally deliver stronger, more reliable volume growth. Here’s what matters for Unilever PLC stock as of December

British American Tobacco (BATS) Stock Update: Buyback Nears Its Finish Line, Dividend Date Looms, and 2026 Guidance Turns Cautious

British American Tobacco p.l.c. (BAT) is ending 2025 with a familiar cocktail for investors: steady cash returns, aggressive capital allocation, and a tug-of-war between “smoke-free” growth ambitions and regulatory/competitive reality. On 23 December 2025, the company published a fresh “Transaction in Own Shares” update tied to its ongoing buyback programme, a disclosure that lands right as that buyback window reaches its scheduled close. London South East+1 For market participants tracking BAT from outside the UK—especially those following cross-border flows and India-linked developments (relevant to India’s market ecosystem, including BSE Ltd.)—the recent ITC Hotels stake sale adds an extra subplot: BAT

RELX PLC stock is back on investors’ radar heading into year-end, not because of a splashy acquisition or an earnings surprise, but because the company is doing what high-cash-generation businesses love to do: shrinking the share count, tightening capital structure, and leaning hard into AI-enabled subscription products that keep customers paying through good cycles and bad. As of the latest close (22 December 2025), RELX shares traded around 3,046p in London, with a 52-week range of 2,970p to 4,205p—a reminder that 2025 has been a “great business, moody market” kind of year for the stock.

ICICI Bank Share Price Today (23 December 2025): Latest News, Forecasts and Analyst Outlook for ICICIBANK on BSE

ICICI Bank Limited stock (BSE: 532174, NSE: ICICIBANK) is back on the radar on Tuesday, 23 December 2025, with the market shifting from “risk-on celebration” to “year-end reality check.” Indian benchmark indices were largely flat in late morning trade as thin holiday-season volumes and a lack of fresh triggers nudged investors to look ahead to the Q3 earnings season for direction. Reuters Against that backdrop, ICICI Bank shares hovered around ₹1,360 in morning trade, down roughly 0.6% at points, according to live market updates.
