  • USA Rare Earth Gains on $1.6bn U.S. Investment; Ryanair Profits Fall; Revolution Medicines Shares Drop
    January 26, 2026, 5:22 AM EST. USA Rare Earth shares jumped 19% pre-market after reports of a $1.6 billion U.S. government investment for a 10% stake, marking the largest in the sector. Cancer drug developer Revolution Medicines fell over 19% as Merck ended talks to acquire it amid price disagreements. In Europe, Ryanair's shares dipped nearly 2% following a 22% decline in quarterly profits, impacted by an €85 million fine, though the company plans to appeal. Despite the charge, Ryanair posted a 9% revenue rise and expects steady profit growth. London's FTSE 100 miner Fresnillo climbed 4% early Monday, benefiting from rising precious metal prices. These moves highlight shifts in government-backed investments, biotech deal uncertainties, and European airline profitability amidst regulatory challenges.
