Peabody Energy (BTU) Soars After Support From Tax and Spending Bill

Peabody Energy Corporation (NYSE:BTU) is a leading coal producer, providing essential products for the production of affordable, reliable energy and steel. Peabody Energy Corporation (NYSE:BTU) soared after the American coal sector received a boost this week following the passage of President Trump's sweeping tax and spending bill, which mandates at least 4 million additional acres of federal land be made available for mining. Moreover, the legislation allows producers of metallurgical coal, like Peabody, to claim an advanced manufacturing production tax credit available for critical minerals. In addition, the 'Big Beautiful Bill' has also reduced the royalties that coal companies must pay the government for mining on public lands.

Bearish Trendline Looms for Struggling Oil Stock

Crude stock Peabody Energy Corp (NYSE:BTU) is 1.9% lower to trade at $13.24 at last check, extending its long-term slide on the charts. BTU has already shed 37% in 2025, one of many of late. In fact, the security's pullback may have only just begun, as the shares are near a historically bearish trendline on the charts. Per Schaeffer's Senior Quantitative Analyst Rocky White, the security is within one standard deviation of its 100-day moving average. BTU was below this this trendline in at least eight of the last 10 trading days and spent 80% of the last two months below it. Within these parameters, five other signals occurred in the past five years, after which the equity was lower one month later every time, averaging an 8.07% drop. A move of comparable magnitude would place BTU near $12. All four covering brokerage firms carry a "strong buy" recommendation on Peabody stock, leaving ample room for bear notes moving forward. An unwinding of bullish sentiment amongst options traders could provide headwinds as well. BTU's 50-day call/put volume ratio of 1.83 at the International Securities Exchange (ISE), Cboe Options Exchange (CBOE), and NASDAQ OMX PHLX (PHLX) ranks higher than 83% of readings from the past year. Now looks like a good time to weigh in with options, too. BTU's Schaeffer's Volatility Index (SVI) of 59% ranks in the 31st percentile of its annual range, meaning options traders are pricing in low volatility expectations.

Peabody Energy Corporation (BTU): A Bull Case Theory

We came across a bullish thesis on Peabody Energy Corporation on In this article, we will summarize the bull's thesis on BTU. Peabody Energy Corporation's share was trading at $14.27 as of 19th June. BTU's trailing P/E was 5.29 according to Yahoo Finance. An aerial view of an open cut coal mine, showing the vastness of the company's mining operations. Peabody Energy Corp (BTU) has remained rangebound for over two years, prompting renewed investor attention amid a transformative acquisition. The company, a major producer of thermal and metallurgical coal in the U.S. and Australia, is acquiring four met coal mines from Anglo American for $2.3 billion plus earnouts—nearly matching its $2.7 billion market cap. This deal significantly reshapes BTU's profile, potentially shifting met coal to two-thirds of its EBITDA by 2026. Historically, two-thirds of EBITDA came from thermal coal, but the Anglo assets—three operating mines producing 11.2 million tons annually, alongside BTU's Centurion project and the potentially restarted Grosvenor mine, could add up to $1.2 billion in met coal EBITDA alone. Management touts attractive deal economics, estimating the purchase at 3.1x EBITDA post-synergies. However, this shift comes with leverage and deferred shareholder returns. Net debt is projected to rise to $1.65 billion post-close, making BTU the only coal major with net debt, while capex for mine development remains high. Analysts peg 2026 EBITDA from core operations at $865 million, with another $400 million from new project optionality. On an EV of $4.35 billion, BTU trades at 2.7x 2026 EBITDA, dropping to 2.2x if upside options are realized without further debt. A 3.5x multiple on core EBITDA yields a $33 share price (+50%), or $44 at $2 billion EBITDA. However, execution risk is high due to volatile coal prices, heavy fixed costs, and the timing of cash flow realization. BTU resembles a leveraged bet on stable coal markets—compelling, but high stakes. Previously, we covered a bullish thesis on Peabody Energy Corporation (BTU) by Hugo Navarro in January 2025, which highlighted the company's strategic acquisition and upside potential from rising metallurgical coal prices. The company's stock price has depreciated by approximately 24% since our coverage. This is because coal prices weakened and sentiment turned cautious. The thesis still stands as supply constraints persist. Value Don't Lie shares a similar view but emphasizes execution risk and capital structure. Peabody Energy Corporation is not on our list of the 30 Most Popular Stocks Among Hedge Funds. As per our database, 42 hedge fund portfolios held BTU at the end of the first quarter, which was 41 in the previous quarter. While we acknowledge the risk and potential of BTU as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.

KOICA, Beni Suef Technological University link graduating students with employers at job fair

The Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) and Beni Suef Technological University (BTU) have organised a job fair and project exhibition to connect graduating students with industry partners. The event, held for the university's 2025 graduates, aimed to link academic work with professional opportunities. It featured a Capstone Projects Exhibition with 26 innovative graduation projects that attracted interest from potential employers and investors, alongside a job fair designed for students to network with companies. The event was attended by senior officials including KOICA Egypt Country Director Jinyoung Kim, Benisuef Governor Mohamed Ghoneim, and Korean Embassy Economic Counsellor Jehyun YANG. They were joined by the President of Beni Suef Technological University, Jean Henri, presidents of other technological universities, and leaders from the industrial community. In his welcoming speech, Henri emphasised the importance of collaboration between academia and industry and thanked KOICA and industrial partners for their support. 'I invite our industrial partners to take advantage of this conference, speak with our talented students, and benefit from their skills and creativity,' he said. Governor Ghoneim highlighted the event as a success of international cooperation. 'The relationship between the Arab Republic of Egypt and the Republic of Korea is one of the greatest examples of fruitful cooperation, resulting in significant educational and developmental projects, including Beni Suef Technological University,' he stated. 'Today, we witness the culmination of this constructive cooperation here in Beni Suef by providing real job opportunities for students and graduates, which is one of the most prominent forms of success in this international partnership that directly connects education with the labor market,' he continued. KOICA Country Director Jinyoung Kim also addressed the attendees. 'It is an honour to extend my warm congratulations on the '2025 Capstone Exhibition and Job Fair of Beni-suef Technological University' today,' she said. 'What makes today especially inspiring is the vibrant energy I see in our students' contribution to this event through their projects built with remarkable knowledge and creative ideas. We aim to raise the standard of technical education at a high level further in Egypt and support young Egyptian talents in Upper Egypt to reach their professional goals.' The event marks the latest development in a long-standing partnership. Since 2016, KOICA has collaborated with BTU to develop university-level technological education curricula, supported by a contribution of approximately $14m from the Korean government. At the conclusion of the event, KOICA and BTU honoured their industrial partners and announced the winners of the graduation project competition. One project was selected as the winner from each of the four fields: Mechatronics, ICT, Autotronics, and Renewable Energy. The event also included a presentation of certificates to students who had completed Korean language and computer science programmes, part of the World Friends Korea (WFK) Programme. Through the WFK initiative, volunteers have provided Korean language and computer science education to around 100 students.
