JX Metals Shares Drop Most Since April 2025 on Convertible Bond

JX Advanced Metals fell after announcing a ¥250 billion ($1.6 billion) convertible bond issuance to finance share buybacks. The plan adds potential dilution and increases balance-sheet complexity, even as the company returns capital to shareholders. The move is mildly negative for the stock and likely more company-specific than sector-wide.
