Battery-Material Producer Shares Rise as U.S. Set to Tariff Chinese Graphite
Shares of some Asia-Pacific battery-material producers rose sharply Friday, after the U.S. moved to impose hefty duties on graphite—a key component of battery anodes—imported from China.
The U.S. Commerce Department will impose preliminary anti-dumping duties of 93.5% on Chinese graphite imports, after determining the materials were unfairly subsidized, according to a statement posted online late Thursday by the American Active Anode Material Producers.
