Glencore ( (GB:GLEN) ) just unveiled an update.

Glencore PLC has announced the purchase of 10.8 million of its ordinary shares from UBS AG as part of its ongoing share buy-back program.

This buy-back initiative, which began in July 2025, is expected to conclude by February 2026, aligning with the company’s financial results announcement. The purchase was executed in Swiss francs, with Swiss withholding tax deducted, and is part of a broader strategy to manage equity exposure and optimize capital structure.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:GLEN) stock is a Buy with a £385.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Glencore stock, see the GB:GLEN Stock Forecast page.
