AI Summary
VALE now looks like a more dependable operator but a tougher margin story: the new labor deals reduce disruption risk, yet the higher wage and retiree-cost burden means the stock's upside depends on iron ore, copper, and nickel prices rising fast enough to offset a structurally higher cost base.
