Australian Dollar Bears Increase as CFTC Net Shorts Widen to -69.9K - ForexTV
In a notable shift within the forex market, the latest data from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) reveals a significant increase in bearish sentiment towards the Australian Dollar (AUD). As of June 13, 2025, the speculative net positions for the AUD have widened from a previous reading of -63.2K to a current level of -69.9K.This development comes as market participants express growing concerns over Australia's economic trajectory amid global uncertainties. Various economic indicators have fueled the increase in short positions, reflecting investor skepticism about the resilience of the AUD. Analysts speculate that the combination of external factors such as changes in global commodity prices and domestic issues could be contributing to this bearish outlook.For traders and investors watching the foreign exchange markets, these figures suggest increased volatility for the AUD in the near term. As economic and geopolitical dynamics continue to evolve, the performance of the Australian Dollar is likely to remain a focal point for market watchers. The widening gap in the AUD speculative net positions is a clear indication of shifting market strategies, possibly heralding further fluctuations in the currency's value.The material has been provided by InstaForex Company - www.instaforex.com

Termination of Offer Discussions with Consortium - ForexTV
NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION IN WHOLE OR IN PART IN, INTO OR FROM ANY JURISDICTION WHERE TO DO SO WOULD CONSTITUTE A VIOLATION OF THE RELEVANT LAWS OR REGULATIONS OF THAT JURISDICTION. THIS IS AN ANNOUNCEMENT UNDER RULE 2.4 OF THE IRISH TAKEOVER PANEL ACT, 1997, TAKEOVER RULES, 2022 (THE "IRISH TAKEOVER RULES" OR THE “RULES”) AND IS NOT AN ANNOUNCEMENT OF A FIRM INTENTION TO MAKE AN OFFER UNDER RULE 2.7 OF THE IRISH TAKEOVER RULES. THERE CAN BE NO CERTAINTY THAT ANY FIRM OFFER WILL BE MADE, NOR AS TO THE TERMS ON WHICH ANY SUCH OFFER WILL BE MADE. THIS ANNOUNCEMENT CONTAINS INSIDE INFORMATION. 19 June 2025 Kenmare Resources plc(“Kenmare” or “the Company” or “the Group”) Termination of Offer Discussions with Consortium Kenmare Resources plc (LSE:KMR, ISE:KMR), one of the leading global producers of titanium minerals and zircon, which operates the Moma Titanium Minerals Mine (the "Mine" or "Moma") in northern Mozambique, announces that it has terminated offer discussions with Oryx Global Partners Limited and Michael Carvill (together, the “Consortium”). Statement from Andrew Webb, Chairman of Kenmare: “Kenmare supported the Consortium in its due diligence process and gave the possible offer extensive consideration, despite its early stage and unsolicited nature. The Board will continue to review all opportunities to create significant long-term value for all of our stakeholders, including our shareholders. We are highly confident in Kenmare’s prospects as an independent company and its ability to deliver on its strategic and operational objectives. Moma is one of the world’s largest titanium minerals deposits, with a multi-decade mine life, a consistent low-cost profile, and substantial inherent value. Kenmare remains on track to achieve its 2025 production guidance and has a strong order book for H2 2025. The Wet Concentrator Plant A upgrade project continues to progress to plan, with commissioning on track to begin in Q3 2025, ahead of the plant’s transition to the large Nataka ore zone. Mining in Nataka will secure long-term production from Moma and will support the Company’s ability to generate strong cash flow throughout the commodity price cycle. Discussions with the Government of Mozambique are continuing regarding the extension of the Implementation Agreement and our Managing Director, Tom Hickey, was pleased to meet with the President of Mozambique last week to discuss the Company’s history, significant investments and future plans in the country.” Background to possible offer On 6 March 2025, the Board of Kenmare confirmed that it had received a non-binding proposal from the Consortium regarding a possible all cash offer for the entire issued and to be issued ordinary share capital of Kenmare. The discussions with the Consortium were announced in response to media speculation, after Kenmare had received unsolicited, preliminary and conditional proposals from the Consortium. The most recent proposal received from the Consortium prior to the announcement by the Company on 6 March 2025 had been made at a price of 530 pence per Kenmare ordinary share (the “Initial Proposal”). The Board of Kenmare, together with its advisers, considered the terms of the Initial Proposal and unanimously rejected it on the basis that it undervalued Kenmare’s business and its prospects. However, in order to facilitate the Consortium improving the financial terms of the Initial Proposal, the Company offered to provide the Consortium with access to limited due diligence information. Since 6 March 2025, Kenmare has continued discussions with the Consortium and has provided additional due diligence information, which also supported the Consortium’s ability to progress its discussions with potential financing partners. In addition, the Company engaged with the Consortium on the terms and conditions of its proposal and other related matters. During Kenmare’s most recent engagement with the Consortium, it was made clear by the Consortium that it would only be willing to proceed with an offer at pricing substantially below the Initial Proposal (the “Revised Pricing”). The Revised Pricing was subject, inter alia, to a request for an additional period of due diligence to conclude financing and other arrangements. The Board of Kenmare, together with its advisers, considered the Revised Pricing and unanimously rejected it on the basis that it significantly undervalued Kenmare’s business and its prospects. Accordingly, the Board of Kenmare has unanimously determined that it is not in the best interests of Kenmare shareholders to seek an extension to the deadline set out in the Company's announcement dated 15 May 2025, as permitted by Rule 2.6(c) of the Irish Takeover Rules, and, consequently, it has terminated all discussions with the Consortium. As stated in the Company’s announcement dated 15 May 2025, in accordance with Rule 2.6(c) of the Irish Takeover Rules, the Consortium is required by no later than 5.00 pm on 20 June 2025, to either announce a firm intention to make an offer for Kenmare in accordance with Rule 2.7 of the Irish Takeover Rules or announce that it does not intend to make an offer for Kenmare, in which case the announcement would be treated as a statement to which Rule 2.8 of the Irish Takeover Rules applies. This announcement is made without the prior agreement or approval of the Consortium. There can be no certainty that a firm offer will be made, or as to the terms of any such offer, should one be made.

The disclosure of a 'dealing' in 'relevant securities' by a person to whom Rule 8.3(b) applies must be made by no later than 3.30 pm (Irish/UK time) on the business day following the date of the transaction. A dealing disclosure must contain the details specified in Rule 8.6(b) of the Irish Takeover Rules, including details of the dealing concerned and of the person's interests and short positions in any 'relevant securities' of Kenmare. All 'dealings' in 'relevant securities' of Kenmare by the Consortium, or by any party acting in concert with the Consortium, must also be disclosed by no later than 12 noon (Irish/UK time) on the 'business' day following the date of the relevant transaction. If two or more persons co-operate on the basis of an agreement, either express or tacit, either oral or written, to acquire for one or more of them an interest in relevant securities, they will be deemed to be a single person for these purposes. Disclosure tables, giving details of the companies in whose 'relevant securities' 'opening positions' and 'dealings' should be disclosed, can be found on the Takeover Panel's website at www.irishtakeoverpanel.ie.

Australian Dollar Speculative Positioning Weakens as Net Shorts Climb - ForexTV
In the latest update from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), reported on June 27, 2025, the Australian Dollar (AUD) continues to see an increase in bearish speculation among traders. The speculative net positions for the AUD slid further into negative territory, reaching -72.6K. This marks a decline from the previous reading of -69.4K, indicating a growing sentiment among traders towards shorting the currency.The mounting short positions against the Australian Dollar suggest that traders are increasingly betting on a downside move for the currency. This shift may be driven by various economic factors impacting Australia, including global commodity prices, interest rate differentials, or domestic economic conditions. Market analysts will likely be keeping a close eye on any upcoming data releases or policy announcements that could influence traders' sentiment and affect the AUD's performance.The continuous rise in net short positions underscores the prevailing trader sentiment surrounding the Australian Dollar and may hint at further pressures in the currency markets. As this trend develops, market participants will be urged to remain vigilant as any major movements could have significant implications for the Australian economy and its trading partners.The material has been provided by InstaForex Company - www.instaforex.com
