The South32 asset acquisition boosts AA's alumina capacity by 53% and aluminum by 37%, with $900M in synergy value and immediate accretion to EPS and cash flow expected.

Meituan delivered Q2 2026 revenue and earnings above consensus, with core local commerce operating profit reaching RMB 5.6 bn versus consensus RMB 3.4 bn.

Federal black mass export ban introduces near-term risk, but ABAT is structurally positioned to benefit from U.S. industrial policy and $201M in grants.
