Ohio farmers eye $2 billion property-tax break as new caps start to bite

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Jan 22, 2026, 01:20 (EST) Ohio Farm Bureau says a set of state property-tax changes passed late last year could provide more than $2 billion in relief for farmers over the next three years, as counties start enforcing new limits designed to curb valuation-driven spikes. “Many of our farmland owners are going to see that inflation limit applied to their tax bills,” said Leah Curtis, the group’s associate general counsel, highlighting credits aimed at owners who have already undergone a reappraisal cycle.

MELBOURNE, Jan 22, 2026, 17:22 AEDT — Market closed Lynas Rare Earths Limited shares pushed higher again on Thursday, finishing up 2.9% at A$16.75.

Sydney, January 22, 2026, 16:50 AEDT — Trading after hours. Fortescue Ltd (FMG.AX) shares slipped 5.1% to close at A$21.48 on Thursday. The iron ore miner’s quarterly report revealed rising unit costs and persistent challenges at its Iron Bridge magnetite project. (MarketScreener) The move was significant since Fortescue’s earnings and dividends are highly sensitive to even slight changes in mining costs and iron ore prices. Investors tend to react sharply to any unexpected cost fluctuations. This hits a sensitive point for Pilbara miners: China remains the largest buyer, and iron ore bargaining power has been under the spotlight all month.
