> Mosaic reported a sharp decline in third-quarter gross profit and a net loss, while its shares rose about 20% as investors focused on lower sulfur costs ahead. The company renegotiated a sulfur contract at $615 per tonne, down from $715 in the third quarter, though inventory timing is expected to keep fourth-quarter costs elevated.

## Why it matters

Cheaper sulfur could reduce phosphate-fertilizer production costs and support producer margins if the lower cost carries through in 2027. That could ease cost pressure on phosphate products, although the scale and timing of relief remain uncertain.
