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.

  • GPC Jumps 12.9% as O'Reilly Looks to Buy Auto Unit, Market Eyes Industrial Shift
    July 3, 2026, 5:13 AM EDT. Genuine Parts (GPC) shares soared 12.9% to $132.57 after news hit of O'Reilly Automotive's cash bid topping $10 billion for its auto-parts segment. The reported offer puts a spotlight on GPC's move to tighten its focus on the industrial parts business, where management targets better margins and growth. Even with a big stock surge, analysts left the consensus EPS at $2.10 for next quarter. Revenue is forecast up 3.6% to $6.39 billion from last year. Some say GPC may not hold onto gains unless earnings estimates start to climb. GPC is still rated Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). Over at Driven Brands Holdings (DRVN), shares added 2.6%, with its EPS estimate nudged up over the past month.
