BHP stock price faces a two-front test: China iron ore ban and Chile copper roadblocks

Sydney, Jan 24, 2026, 16:55 AEDT — The market has closed. BHP Group Ltd shares enter the week with fresh scrutiny on their China iron ore sales after Reuters revealed the miner diverted Jimblebar Blend Fines — a mid-grade iron ore product — to Malaysia and Vietnam. The shipments came after China Mineral Resources Group, created in 2022 to coordinate iron ore purchases, instructed mills and traders last September not to buy Jimblebar during 2026 contract talks. Reuters pointed to a 95,000-ton cargo unloaded in Malaysia on Jan. 14 and a 75,000-ton shipment to Vietnam in December. Meanwhile, port stocks climbed sharply to 8.1 million tons by Jan. 13, a 360% spike since late September. BHP’s shares ended up 0.7% on the ASX at A$48.43, with its U.S.-listed stock rising roughly 3.9% to $67.52 and London shares up 2.1% to 2,465 pence.

  • Elastic, Toast, Nutanix up as U.S.-Iran deal cools tensions, tech jumps
    June 29, 2026, 10:12 PM EDT. Elastic, Toast, and Nutanix traded higher in afternoon action after a U.S.-Iran deal to stop military strikes eased weeks of market worry over the region. Oil prices pulled back on the news, taking some pressure off inflation and lowering bets on more Fed rate hikes. That shift boosted growth software names. At the same time, OpenAI may delay its IPO, which cooled talk of overnight AI disruption in software, helping tech stocks broadly. Toast (TOST) saw a bounce, though the stock is still down 17.5% for the year and off 43.1% from its 52-week high; it's had a string of 5%+ swings this year. The company was just added to the S&P MidCap 400 index, a move likely to draw more index fund buying.
