The Chinese market regulator has suspended its antitrust investigation into DuPont China Group, a subsidiary of the U.S.-based DuPont. This investigation, initiated in April, was focused on potential violations of China’s anti-monopoly law amidst ongoing trade tensions between China and the United States. Meanwhile, UBS has raised its price target for DuPont to $89, maintaining a Buy rating, as the company prepares for the November 1 spin-off of its electronics business, Qnity, which constitutes about 45% of DuPont’s EBITDA. RBC Capital has also reiterated an Outperform rating on DuPont, with a price target of $90, citing improving fundamentals that may lead to surpassing its second-quarter and fiscal year 2025 guidance.
