Texas Capital Securities analyst Matt Key initiated coverage on Century Aluminum (CENX) with a "buy" rating and a US$42 target, potentially amplifying investor and trading attention. The investment narrative for Century Aluminum focuses on tight primary aluminum supply, supportive U.S. trade policy, and domestic capacity expansion, particularly with the Mt. Holly restart underpinned by a power agreement extension to 2031. However, the company's valuation remains sensitive to tariff policies and power contracts, with Simply Wall St's fair value estimate aligning with the current price while community estimates show a wide range.

Wells Fargo has reiterated its "Overweight" rating for Century Aluminum (CENX) with a price target of $38.25/share, suggesting a slight downside from its current closing price. The company's projected annual revenue is expected to increase by 19.36%, with institutional ownership showing a bullish outlook despite a small decrease in total shares owned. Major shareholders include Glencore, iShares Core S&P Small-Cap ETF, and Sourcerock Group.

Century Aluminum (CENX) stock rose after Wells Fargo increased its price target to $46, citing aluminum supply constraints, high power costs, and substitution from copper. The company benefits from U.S. tariffs and record Midwest premiums, with further tailwinds expected from its Mt. Holly restart and 45X incentives. Investors are closely watching policy risks, operational challenges, energy pricing, and shareholder dynamics as key factors influencing the stock's future performance.
