Market Focus10-26 21:55

On October 26, Vale SA fell 3.06% in Regular Trading, trading at $11.985/share, with turnover of $198 million.

The move followed cautious sentiment ahead of the company’s October 29 earnings release, as market expectations point to only 0.30% year-over-year revenue growth for the quarter, while a recent target price cut added pressure.

Recent analyst views have been mixed. UBS lowered its target price to $14.50 from $15 while maintaining a neutral rating, even as the broader analyst consensus remained overweight with an average target near $16.42 and Scotiabank had earlier upgraded the stock to sector outperform with a $16 target. Vale reported prior-quarter revenue of $10.493 billion, up 19.19% year over year, while adjusted EPS was $0.32. The next earnings report is scheduled for October 29, with market expectations at $0.33 EPS.
