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.

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

Dec. 22, 2025 — Trump Media & Technology Group Corp. (Nasdaq / NYSE Texas: DJT) is back in its natural habitat: extreme volatility.

Warner Bros. Discovery Stock (WBD) Today: Paramount Adds Larry Ellison’s $40.4B Guarantee, Netflix Locks In Deal Financing — What It Means for Shares (Dec. 22, 2025)

Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc. (NASDAQ: WBD) stock is trading like a referendum on one question: which bidder (if any) ultimately wins one of the biggest media takeovers in history. As of Dec. 22, 2025, WBD shares were last at $27.77, after swinging between $27.07 and $29.31 in a volatile session. The day’s catalyst is straightforward: Paramount Skydance doubled down on its hostile takeover attempt with a major financing upgrade—an “irrevocable personal guarantee” from Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison covering $40.4 billion of equity financing—while Netflix moved to strengthen its own bid by refinancing a large piece of the bridge funding backing

Amicus Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: FOLD) stock is no longer trading like a typical biotech momentum name—at least not this week. As of December 22, 2025, the stock is hovering around $14.18, tightly anchored to the $14.50 per-share all-cash buyout BioMarin Pharmaceutical has agreed to pay. Investing.com+1 That tight range is the market’s way of saying: “We believe the deal is real, but not free money.” The remaining gap between today’s trading price and the $14.50 cash consideration reflects the time value of waiting, plus the risk (however small) that something delays or disrupts closing.
