Rio Tinto Launches $15 Billion Asset Sell-Off Rio Tinto has announced plans to sell up to $15 billion worth of assets as part of a strategy to streamline the company and refocus on its core operations. The move marks one of the largest portfolio resets in the miner’s history. Iron Ore Still the Backbone At Tom Price in Western Australia’s Pilbara region, iron ore is moved by rail almost 400 kilometres to Cape Lambert, where it is loaded onto ships bound for Asia. These Pilbara mines remain Rio’s strongest earnings driver and will not be part of the sell-off. What Will Be Sold? Rio plans to offload non-core mines, land parcels, and parts of its processing and infrastructure portfolio. The company is also reducing spending on decarbonisation projects, shifting towards third-party partnerships instead of funding major energy investments itself. Simandou Adds Global Pressure The timing of the reset coincides with the long-awaited ramp-up of the Simandou iron ore project in Guinea, which will introduce new global supply. The added competition has intensified Rio’s push to sharpen its business and strengthen financial performance. A High-Stakes Strategy Rio says the changes will make the company “stronger, sharper and simpler.” But with iron ore markets shifting and new supply emerging, the key question remains: will selling too much reduce Rio’s long-term advantage?

Intel’s been lagging behind for years, while AMD has pulled far ahead in both consumer and professional-grade chips, it’s really not a close race anymore.

Intel’s been lagging behind for years, while AMD has pulled far ahead in both consumer and professional-grade chips, it’s really not a close race anymore. There’s this idea floating around that throwing enough cash at Intel will suddenly turn them into the next TSMC. But semiconductor manufacturing isn’t something you can rush, it’s a complex, slow-moving process that takes years of precision and experience. Intel could recover some ground eventually, but framing them as the savior of American chipmaking feels more like a political talking point than a practical reality.
