Robinhood shares gain on Q2 beat, as user and crypto growth accelerate
Investing.com - B.Riley downgraded Teck Resources Ltd (TSX:TECK-B) (NYSE:TECK) from Buy to Neutral and lowered its price target to C$61.00 from C$69.00 following the company’s second-quarter results. The stock has declined over 13% in the past week, with InvestingPro data showing the shares are currently in oversold territory.
The rating change comes after Teck outlined continued operational challenges at its Quebrada Blanca (QB) mine and reduced its 2025 copper and molybdenum production guidance. Despite these setbacks, the company maintains it expects to achieve design rates at QB by year-end. The company’s strong financial health score of "GOOD" and current ratio of 3.47 suggest it has ample resources to navigate these challenges.
B.Riley noted that while Teck’s other mining operations showed encouraging progress, persistent underperformance at the flagship QB asset continues to weigh on consolidated results. This marks the second downward revision to QB guidance over the past three quarters.
The research firm decided to move to the sidelines until there is more certainty in achieving steady state operations at the QB mine. Teck has maintained its 2026 guidance, though B.Riley sees these targets as incrementally at risk.
Management is currently investigating a ship loader failure to assess insurance recovery options, according to the analyst report.
