More than 100 Rio Tinto shareholders have called for a resolution that could see the miner quit its primary London listing and unify its corporate structure.

Activist investor Palliser Capital is pushing the world's biggest iron ore producer to abandon its primary London listing and unify its corporate structure in Australia.

Palliser and other investors want a resolution over an independent review of Rio Tinto's dual-listed model, which the activist claims has cost $50billion in shareholder value.

FTSE 100-listed Rio Tinto is the latest to face pressure from activists to abandon its primary London listing, while there has been a string of departures for various reasons as London struggles to cling to its position as an attractive destination for companies.

Along with several small and micro-cap firms that say the costs outweigh the benefits, takeovers have also seen gaming firm Keywords Studios, cybersecurity business Darktrace and Virgin Money delist this year, with Royal Mail owner IDS’ and Britvic’s takeovers being others heading for the exit door.

Rio Tinto’s departure would mark a major blow for London, with the miner’s £84.1 billion market capitalisation placing it among London’s largest companies.

Mining shares are generally cyclical and don't follow a progressive dividend policy. For example RIO's total dividend grew from 134p to 577p from 2016 to 2021 (34% growth rate) but since then has fallen back to 336p (-16% growth rate). But they did pay a good dividend in 2020, when a lot of companies cut theirs, so they could be a useful diversifier.

(Alliance News) - Rio Tinto PLC confirmed a potential acquisition of the US-based lithium producer Arcadium Lithium PLC.

Arcadium's Sydney-listed shares rose 48% to AUD6.16 each on Monday afternoon. It has a market capitalisation of around USD3.31 billion.

Rio said in a statement it had approached the company regarding the potential "non-binding" acquisition.

"There is no certainty that any transaction will be agreed to or will proceed," it said.

Rio Tinto and Arcadium Lithium said they would not comment further.

If the deal goes ahead, it would transform Rio Tinto into the world's third-largest lithium supplier.

But the lithium industry is struggling with an oversupply and falling electric vehicle sales, pushing prices down and leading mines around the world to shut or scale back production.

Arcadium Lithium announced earlier this year it was mothballing a mine in Western Australia, citing low prices.

Australia is the world's biggest supplier of lithium, which is used in a variety of products including hybrid and electric car batteries, laptops and phones.

Rio Tinto Group (NYSE:RIO) engages in exploring, mining, and processing mineral resources worldwide. It is headquartered in the United Kingdom. Investors who have studied AI in great detail understand that there are some long-term AI plays in Europe other than software and chip firms. One of these long-term bets is linked to the rise in demand for copper as large firms commit billions towards the development of AI data centers. Copper, one of the premier mining operations of Rio Tinto, is one such commodity. It is used extensively in AI data centers. Even though leading AI chips are made of silicon, copper has a key role, interconnecting the integrated circuitry within these chips.
AI-linked demand has led to a shortage in copper supplies, sending prices above $11,000 a metric ton back in May this year. Rio Tinto Group (NYSE:RIO) is one of the biggest beneficiaries from this AI boom. Half-year earnings released by the firm in July reveal that higher copper production and prices have helped to offset a slightly lower production and prices from the dominant iron ore business.

Overall RIO ranks 2nd on our list of the best European AI stocks to buy according to Morgan Stanley. While we acknowledge the potential of RIO as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns, and doing so within a shorter timeframe. If you are looking for an AI stock that is more promising than RIO but that trades at less than 5 times its earnings, check out our report about the

Rio Tinto (ASX, LON, NYSE: RIO) said on Wednesday it would contemplate a significant copper acquisition if it added exceptional value, but noted that buying quality assets in the current “hot market” would be “seriously” expensive.

The world’s second largest miner has been concentrating on expanding its copper business based on anticipated strong demand surpassing available supply of the energy transition metal.

Rio Tinto, which has long said building mines is a better option for growth than buying assets, seems to be changing its tone as main rival BHP moves to consolidate the sector.

Chief executive Jakob Stausholm said he is not ruling out looking at large takeovers in the copper sector now that Rio has reached an “inflection point”.

All good.


Miner Rio Tinto maintained its first-half payout after a "stable financial performance". Sales revenue during the first six months of the year edged up 0.5% to USD26.80 billion from USD26.67 billion a year prior.

Pretax profit rose 17% to USD8.12 billion from USD6.93 billion. "Rio Tinto is both consistently very profitable and growing.

This is being driven by the disciplined investments we are making to strengthen our operations and progress major projects for profitable organic growth," CEO Jakob Stausholm said. "Our overall copper equivalent production is on track to grow by around 2% this year, and our ambition is to deliver around 3% of compound annual growth from 2024 to 2028 from existing operations and projects."

The CEO the firm is at an "inflection point", as it looks ahead to the future of its aluminium portfolio with confidence, and hails "consistent production at our Pilbara iron ore operations". Rio Tinto maintained its interim dividend at 177.0 cents per share.

Crafty, re the dividend. This from 'ii' today...


The update, which was posted ahead of half-year results due on 31 July, left Rio Tinto shares down 170p to their lowest level since April at 5021p.

The company’s policy is to pay a dividend between 40% and 60% of its earnings through the cycle, with UBS forecasting an award of $3.1 billion or 193 US cents (148.8p) share for a 50% ratio.

The award had been 376 US cents in August 2021, when Rio also included a special dividend of 185 US cents for a total distribution of $9.1 billion equivalent to a 75% payout ratio.

UBS said: “Looking at the last eight reporting periods, Rio typically pays out 50% of earnings at the interim; the final dividend is typically sufficient to get the full-year payout ratio up to 70-80%, although this has ranged from 60% to 160%.”
