↑ 4%Platinum rises 6% as Eastplats, Bokoni restart plans grow. Sun, August 9, 2026 at 7:50 AM GMT-7 · FX Markets · Compiled by Adalytica Engine v1.12 Platinum and palladium are breaking out of their recent downtrends, with platinum up about 6% and related mining stocks drawing fresh capital as producers move to restart or expand output. The shift matters because tighter supply, mine disruptions and renewed investor demand are changing the pricing backdrop for the platinum group metals complex. When a market that has been under pressure starts to move decisively higher, it can quickly reshape mine economics, hedging decisions and funding plans across the sector. Sentiment Indicatorsi Proprietary · adalytica.com · August 9, 2026 Extreme Greed Extreme Bullish Eastern Platinum has secured a credit facility of up to C$2 million from Ka An Development to help ramp up its CRM underground operations, while Anglo American Platinum's Arm has said it plans to invest $840 million to restart the Bokoni mine. Those projects underline the same message: higher PGM prices improve the case for bringing production back, but they also force miners to weigh capex against already tight cash flow. Operational disruption is adding fuel to the rally. Implats' mining shutdown has tightened supply, and that comes on top of broader strength across precious metals, with gold and silver also advancing and Adalytica's gold and dollar gauges flashing extreme greed readings, a sign that investor appetite has broadened across hard assets. For investors, the trend break raises the odds of further volatility but also improves the earnings outlook for producers leveraged to platinum and palladium. Shares tied to the complex can re-rate quickly when pricing turns, yet the same move can leave heavily financed developers exposed if the rally fades before new supply comes online. The next test is whether the metals can hold gains as restarted output, financing needs and global risk sentiment collide. Traders will be watching whether the current move becomes a durable repricing or another short-lived spike in a market still prone to abrupt swings. | Entity | Gains | Losses | | Platinum miners | | Better margins, restart economics | | Higher execution and capex pressure | | Palladium producers | | Firmer pricing backdrop | | Funding risk if rally reverses | | Eastplats / Bokoni projects | | Easier financing case | | Balance-sheet strain | | Short sellers / weak miners | | - | | Squeeze risk, margin pressure | Long platinum miners / Short weak PGM miners Platinum breakout lifts miners Entry 6% above recent lows Target 12% above recent lows Stop 2% below recent lows R:R 1: 3.0 FX Markets Trade Idea Turn this analysis into a trade.

Anglo American strengthens future portfolio to 'unlock full potential' Anglo American has reported a strong first half of 2026, with continued progress on its portfolio transformation strategy helping deliver a 35 per cent increase in underlying earnings to $US4 billion ($5.6 billion). The company said its focus on building a higher-margin, higher-quality business centred on copper, premium iron ore and crop nutrients is progressing, with several major strategic milestones achieved during the period. Chief executive officer Duncan Wanblad said the company was unlocking the potential of a simplified portfolio while preparing for its proposed merger with Teck Resources. "We are unlocking the full potential of Anglo American - anchored in copper, premium iron ore and crop nutrients - with a focus on delivering material value for our shareholders," Wanblad said in a statement. A key development, as reported in the company's interim results for 2026, was the agreed sale of Anglo American's steelmaking coal business to Dhilmar for up to $5.5 billion. The company is also progressing the sale of De Beers, while continuing work to improve the diamond business's cost performance and reduce capital expenditure amid challenging market conditions. Operational performance from continuing operations remained strong, supported by cost discipline and favourable copper prices. Copper was a major contributor, generating underlying earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) of $4.1 billion with a margin of 60 per cent. Anglo American reported revenue of $14.08 billion for the six months to 30 June 2026, while attributable free cash flow increased to $1.1 billion, up from $458 million in the prior corresponding period. The company reduced net debt to $11.6 billion, improving its net debt to underlying EBITDA ratio to 1.0 times. Integration planning for the proposed Anglo Teck merger is well advanced, with completion targeted within the original September 2026-March 2027 timeframe. Anglo American said the merger would create a global metals and minerals company, with the combined business expected to benefit from increased scale and identified synergies.

Anglo American stays in loss due to discontinued operations, tax hit. 30th Jul 2026 08:46 (Alliance News) - Anglo American PLC on Thursday reported a narrowed half-year loss, as discontinued operations, including diamond miner De Beers, and a substantial tax charge kept the miner in the red. The London-based diversified miner suffered an attributable loss from total operations of USD858 million for the six months that ended June 30, though this was narrowed from a USD1.88 billion loss a year before. Net profit from continuing operations was USD856 million, down 5.7% from USD905 million. But loss from discontinued operations narrowed to USD1.16 billion from USD2.27 billion. Continuing operations includes Anglo American's core businesses - copper, iron ore, manganese and crop nutrients. Anglo American is discontinuing the steelmaking coal, nickel and platinum group metals businesses as part of its simplification strategy. Anglo American has agreed to sell its steelmaking coal business to Dhilmar Ltd for up to USD3.87 billion. It continues to work through the European Commission's anti-trust approval process for the sale of its nickel business, and it also is advancing the disposal of De Beers, Anglo American Chief Executive Officer Duncan Wanblad said on Thursday. Pretax profit from continuing operations surged 56% to USD2.27 billion from USD1.46 billion. Shares in Anglo American were up 1.0% to ZAR808.09 on Thursday morning in Johannesburg. They were up 0.1% to 3,604.00 pence in London. Revenue from continuing operations rose 11% to USD9.93 billion in the recent half-year from USD8.95 billion a year before, lifting underlying earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation from continuing operations to USD4.00 billion, up 35% from USD2.96 billion. Anglo American booked an income tax expense of USD1.41 billion, compared to USD551 million a year before. The diversified mining group declared an interim dividend of USD0.23, up sharply from USD0.07 last year. Basic earnings per share from continuing operations fell 30% to USD0.28 from USD0.40. Basic loss per share from total operations shrank to USD0.80 from USD1.58. "On the back of our robust operational and financial performance in the first half of the year, we have every confidence that we are making the right choices in terms of realising full value from our portfolio, both now and looking towards completion of our compelling combination with Teck," Anglo American's Wanblad said. Anglo American has said its merger with Teck Resources Ltd is on track, with the expected completion window of September this year to March next year unchanged. In September last year, Anglo American and Teck said they agreed to combine their respective businesses in what they bill as a "merger of equals" to form Anglo Teck. Looking ahead, Anglo American kept its annual copper production guidance of between 700,000 tonnes and 760,000 in 2026, up from 695,000 tonnes in 2025. Premium iron ore guidance also remains unchanged at between 55 million and 59 million tonnes in 2026, down from 60.8 million tonnes in 2025.

Anglo American releases operational and financial results for the first half of 2026. Bnamericas Published: Thursday, July 30, 2026 30/07/2026 - Anglo American Group released, this Thursday (30), the operational and financial results for the first half of 2026. The report highlights the company's solid performance in Brazil. The production of the Minas-Rio System remained stable, at 12.9 million tonnes of premium iron ore (June 30, 2025: 13.1 million tonnes), reflecting higher plant utilization and improved operating rates, supported by greater stability in ore feed, especially during the rainy season. These factors offset the lower ore grade and lower mass recovery. Still at Minas-Rio, underlying EBITDA decreased 13% to US$486 million (June 30, 2025: US$561 million), due to lower realized prices and higher unit costs, partially offset by slightly higher sales volumes. Unit costs, in turn, increased 13% to US$33 per tonne (June 30, 2025: US$29 per tonne), mainly as a result of the appreciation of the Brazilian real and inflationary pressures. These impacts were partially mitigated by the ongoing cost-reduction program and operational efficiency initiatives. Nickel production in Goiás, in turn, totaled 18.2 thousand tons in the first half of 2026, compared to 19.3 thousand tons in the same period of 2025, which represents a 6% reduction. The result reflects the impacts of corrective maintenance activities and scheduled maintenance that were brought forward to 2026 at the Barro Alto and Codemin operations. Underlying EBITDA from nickel operations decreased to US$18 million (June 30, 2025: US$43 million), due to higher unit costs and lower sales volumes, partially offset by higher realized prices. "We delivered a solid first half in our operations in Brazil. In a global context marked by volatility, the stability of our businesses in the country demonstrates the strength of our assets, the quality of the work carried out by our teams, and Anglo American's ongoing commitment to responsible, efficient, and safe mining," says Ana Sanches, president of Anglo American in Brazil. Minas-Rio maintains its annual production forecast between 24 and 26 million tons. As previously announced, Anglo American continues to advance in the regulatory process for the sale of the nickel business in 2026. Historic record for iron ore shipments A highlight in the first half of the year for Anglo American was the record monthly shipment of iron ore at the company's terminal in the Port of Açu, in São João da Barra (RJ). In the month of June, 2.78 million wet tonnes were shipped, distributed among 16 vessels bound for Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. The volume surpassed the previous record of 2.77 million wet tonnes, reached in December 2024. "The possibility of shipping this record quantity of ore is the result of integrated work that involves all our teams, from the mine to the port. It is the outcome of extensive planning, collaboration, and dedication from our people, which reflects our constant focus on safety, quality, and operational excellence", celebrates Ana Sanches.
