Why did EQR rise 14.6% on 16 Feb 2026?
EQ Resources
The stock surged on sector-wide momentum from rising US-China tungsten supply tensions, not company-specific news.
The price move occurred on a weekend-adjacent date with a major article about the tungsten supply race and US-China tensions published just before the move. The company is a tungsten supplier, so this commodity-driven sector flow is the most likely driver. No other news directly explains the single-day jump.
