   <title>Mizuho Upgrades Albemarle (ALB) to Outperform</title>
   <link>http://www.streetinsider.com/Upgrades/Mizuho+Upgrades+Albemarle+%28ALB%29+to+Outperform/27182602.html</link>
   <description>&lt;p&gt;Mizuho analyst John Roberts upgraded Albemarle (NYSE: ALB) from Neutral to Outperform with a price target of $130.00.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The analyst comments: “We are raising ALB rating to Outperform as strong Battery Energy Stationary Storage (BESS) demand has tipped market balance into favorable territory. Consultants Benchmark's new lithium carbonate forecast increased 2027 prices to $22,500/t from $18,375/t, and 2028 to $19,500/t from $14,500/t. The change is led by higher demand. Strong BESS outlook lifted 2027 demand by ~10% vs previous estimate, while supply (including inventory drawdown) was ~flat. We raise our 2027/2028 Albemarle Energy Storage segment price forecast to $21k/19k/t from $17k/18k/t.</description>
