&#8220;Our business continues to perform in line with our outlook considerations, including first-quarter adjusted EBITDA of&nbsp;$267 million&nbsp;with strong year-over-year improvements in Specialties and&nbsp;Ketjen,&#8221; said&nbsp;Kent Masters, CEO of Albemarle. 
&#8220;We continue to focus on what we can control — taking decisive actions to reduce costs, optimize our lithium conversion network and increase efficiencies to preserve our long-term competitive position. While the full economic impact of the recently announced tariffs and other global trade actions is unclear, we benefit from our global footprint and the current exemptions for critical minerals; as a result, we are maintaining our full year 2025 outlook considerations,&#8221; Masters said.

Wall Street traded lower on the final session of the month, heading for its third consecutive monthly loss as economic data began reflecting the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump">impact of Trump tariffs.</a>
U.S. GDP shrank by 0.3% in the last quarter, marking the first economic contraction since 2022 and missing forecasts for a 0.4% expansion. The decline was driven by a surge in imports and reduced government spending.
Labor market data also disappointed. The ADP National Employment Report showed private employers added just 62,000 jobs in April—the weakest gain in nine months and well below the expected 108,000.
By midday in New York, the S&amp;P 500 was down 1% to 5,500, on pace to end a six-day winning streak. Tech stocks in the Nasdaq 100 lagged ahead of earnings from industry titans Microsoft Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NYSE">MSFT</a>) and Meta Platforms Inc.
Nine of the S&amp;P 500's eleven sectors were in the red, with only consumer staples and health care posting modest gains. Energy and consumer discretionary led the losses, falling 3.3% and 2.7%, respectively.
Commodities were broadly lower. Oil tumbled 3.7% to $58 a barrel, approaching its lowest close since March 2021. Copper—often seen as a gauge of global growth—plunged 5.2% to $4.60 per pound. Natural gas declined 2.5% to $3.17 per million British thermal units.
Bond markets were steady, with the 10-year Treasury yield hovering at 4.17%. Gold dipped 0.3% to $3,330 per ounce, while the U.S. dollar index (DXY) strengthened by the same margin.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) showed resilience, holding steady at around $93,000 despite broader market weakness.

Earnings Scheduled For April 30, 2025

The U.S. is accelerating the permitting process for 10 critical mineral production projects under the FAST-41 program following President Donald Trump's <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/03/44471105/trumps-executive-order-fuels-investor-speculation-over-alaskan-resources" rel="noreferrer noopener">executive order</a> to reduce the country's reliance on foreign mineral imports.
The initiative seeks to remove bureaucratic hurdles, secure essential minerals, and strengthen domestic supply chains.
"This is the first use of the Permitting Council's transparency authority, and we look forward to showcasing the many benefits the Federal Permitting Dashboard can bring to critical infrastructure projects," <a target="_blank" href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/articles/2025/04/trump-administration-advances-first-wave-of-critical-mineral-production-projects/" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a> Manisha Patel, Acting Executive Director at the Permitting Council. "It's a vital tool for interagency coordination and efficient decision-making," he added.
The newly designated projects include major proposals across the country such as Perpetua Resources' (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PPTA#NASDAQ">PPTA</a>) Stibnite Gold and Antimony Project in Idaho, Rio Tinto's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIO#NYSE">RIO</a>) Resolution Copper Project in Arizona, Hecla Mining's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HL#NYSE">HL</a>) copper and silver mine in Montana, and Albemarle's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALB#NYSE">ALB</a>) expansion of the Silver Peak lithium mine in Nevada. Also included are Standard Lithium's direct lithium extraction site in Arkansas, Warrior Met Coal's metallurgical coal mine in Alabama, and the McDermitt Lithium Project in Oregon. Others include the Caldwell Canyon Phosphate Mine in Idaho, Lisbon Valley Copper in Utah, and Michigan Potash.
These projects are now subject to the FAST-41 framework, which provides enhanced interagency coordination and a centralized online dashboard for monitoring permitting progress. While the program doesn't waive environmental laws, it significantly improves process transparency and helps enforce clearer timelines.
The U.S. depends heavily on foreign sources, particularly China, for critical minerals such as lithium, copper, and rare earth elements, crucial for electric vehicles, military equipment, and consumer electronics. Lengthy permitting processes, which can take anywhere from <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39870803/us-mine-development-delays-among-worlds-longest-second-only-to-zambia" rel="noreferrer noopener">10 to 29 years</a>, have hindered domestic production, forcing reliance on geopolitical competitors. By comparison, countries like Canada and Australia approve mines in two to five years, giving them a significant advantage in attracting investment and securing supply chains.
Even in Canada, where permitting is relatively faster, both leading candidates for prime minister—Mark Carney and Pierre Poilievre—have campaigned on promises to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44732611/canadian-politicians-promise-faster-project-approvals-ahead-of-april-28-elections" rel="noreferrer noopener">reduce mining bureaucracy</a> further.
"For too long, duplicative processes and regulatory paralysis have delayed the development of the minerals America needs," <a target="_blank" href="https://www.doi.gov/pressreleases/trump-administration-adds-key-mining-projects-fast-41" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a> Adam Suess, Acting Assistant Secretary for Land and Minerals Management. "By cutting red tape and increasing accountability, we're making it clear that under President Trump, the United States is serious about being a global leader in critical minerals."

Trump Administration Fast-Tracks Ten Domestic Critical Mineral Projects

WIIM

Albemarle shares are trading lower after Baird and Citigroup cut their respective price targets on the stock.

Wall Street gained ground by midday trading on Tuesday, as investor concerns over the economic impact of trade tensions continued to ease following recent signs that the Trump administration was taking <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44812727/bessent-says-tariffs-on-china-are-far-from-a-joke-dismisses-treasury-dumping-fears">a more conciliatory approach.</a>
All major indexes were in positive territory, with tech stocks leading the way thanks to strong performances by Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) and Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>), both rising about 6%.
The streaming giant climbed following a <a href="https://www.wsj.com/business/media/netflix-aims-to-join-the-1-trillion-club-fdacb250">Wall Street Journal report</a> that it plans to double revenue by 2030, citing sources. Netflix is set to release its first-quarter earnings on Thursday after market close.
The S&amp;P 500 has now recovered nearly 80% of the losses suffered after Trump's tariff announcement on April 2.
Among sectors, financials led the gains, climbing 1.3%, supported by strong earnings reports from Bank of America Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>) and Citigroup Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/C#NYSE">C</a>), which surged 4.3% and 3.8%, respectively.
The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) rebounded 0.5%, aiming to end a five-day losing streak, while Treasury yields declined further, easing fears of a potential sell-off of U.S. assets by foreign investors. Yields on the 10-year Treasury fell five basis points to 4.33%, following an 11-basis-point drop on Monday.
In commodities, gold edged up 0.4% to $3,223 per ounce, while oil prices slipped 0.8% to $61 per barrel. Natural gas dropped 1.6% to $3.25 per million British thermal units, approaching its lowest level since mid-December 2024.
Crypto markets remained relatively quiet, with Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) rising 0.5% to $85,000.

Shares of companies in the broader chemicals sector are trading lower as stocks pull back after surging Wednesday following President Trump's tariff pause announcement.

U.S. stocks staged a broad-based rally on Monday, snapping a volatile losing streak after President Donald Trump hinted at a more diplomatic <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tariffs">approach to tariff negotiations.</a>
In a post on Truth Social, Trump said the U.S. is handling a "massive amount of requests for negotiations," referencing active talks with South Korea and hinting that China "wants to make a deal, badly."
He also mentioned a joint venture involving an Alaska pipeline and military cost-sharing, asserting that South Korea&#8217;s top negotiation team was en route to the U.S.
Meanwhile, Fed speakers begin to highlight the negative economic impact from tariffs. &#8220;We can&#8217;t really wait to the end of the quarter plus one month before we find out that investment really dropped off and GDP growth is shrinking,&#8221; Chicago Fed President Austan Goolsbee said.
By midday trading in New York, all major U.S. stock indices were firmly in the green. The S&amp;P 500 rose 1.4%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 1.1%, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite led with a 1.8% jump. Technology stocks were the day's clear outperformers, driven by a strong rebound in the semiconductor sector.
The iShares Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NASDAQ">SOXX</a>) surged 3.3%, marking its strongest intraday gain since September 2024. Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>) led the charge with a 7.3% jump, followed by Marvell Technology Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRVL#NASDAQ">MRVL</a>) and Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>), which both climbed 6.1%.
In commodities, gold prices rose 0.5% to $2,335 per ounce, poised to snap a three-session losing streak. Oil prices also saw a firm recovery, with WTI crude advancing 1.5% to $61.50 per barrel, reversing recent weakness. U.S. Treasury yields remained largely flat. 
In contrast, cryptocurrency markets failed to participate in the rally. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) fell another 1% to $78,000.
