They matter a lot more in markets that don't rely on capital growth and speculation as much. ASX listed companies have a significant portion of their return come as distributions so if there's no profits to distribute no one is gonna buy them. But much smaller market dominated by a few large companies. For example BHP lost some ground to foreign mining companies a couple weeks ago and the *entire* australian market shrunk.
OK I WILL BE THE GUY since OP is scared of ban so much he included zero data. \- CAT - in comments above. Probably because they sell shovels for this rush \- Copper ETF's - wide sector coverage \- SIlver ETF's - big brain move \- Established miners: FCX BHP MP you name it. \- Lotto Wildcards - any BS explorers in BC canada since copper is everywhere in that quesnel belt

Mostly producers first because they are easier to value. FCX, SCCO, BHP, TECK, and Capstone are on my list. I also started looking at earlier-stage names for more copper optionality. One newer one on my list is NovaRed Mining. Still studying it because it is pre-resource and higher risk.
Yup the futures market isn't what matters its real oil at the depo for mining companies, farmers, long haul trucks. You can speculate all you want but its a hard wall in 5 weeks here in Perth Aus. and we'll have rationing. It wont matter that you have long contracts it only matters that there isn't diesel. Blue cap was the early warning by 5 weeks the mid cap miners will be facing the same. It wont matter you hedged your diesel price if you cant get diesel. I bet all the 'help to our allies in the middle east' the Aus gov is giving is to Oman as they don't have to go through the strait. Its to get oil for BHP, Rio and Fortescue
Oh yeah, no. I donβt buy leaps, was trying to be helpful on area of market. So SHEL, BHP, IPI? IPI looks a little overbought. Dunno.

The Iran war only affects MOS negatively.

Friendship ended with Rio Tinto, now BHP is my best friend
Don't know about all these unimportant companies on the chart aside from Newmont and PAS, but Rio Tinto Glencore BHP Anglo American should report this week
So my salary was a lot lower then yours at 18 however I got some inheritance and invested it. Iβm also in Australia and not that much older than you. If youβre happy to put it into the Aussie market like me Iβd suggest just putting your salary into our blue chip stocks like BHP, RIO, the banks etc that give good fully franked dividends. A few times a year there is typically a decent dip in the share price, itβs honestly pretty predictable and will allow you to get some decent short term growth. If you want more specific advice just ask. You have the potential to really set yourself up if youβre disciplined.
I've used it a lot to learn about certain industries, mainly rare earth metals and the like. For example I believe Cobalt has a bright future since it's used in so much, then I learned it's actually a byproduct of Iron and Copper. So I think researched bigger tickets for that, and went heavy into a few like VALE, SCCO, and BHP. I've done pretty well with them!
ERO Copper, Freeport McMoran, BHP
BHP Biliton the world's largest copper and iron mining company. As of last year as a byproduct of their copper and iron ore mining they also minned 550k ounces of gold which have added nicely to the stock price and valuation. BHP is now as of yesterday the largest by market cap company on the Australian stock market. I have held this stock for over 10 years through highs and lows and will continue to do so. As of today the YTD return is 16.86%.
Damn. Even the big miners are up... Rio (+5,05%), BHP (+3,64%), FCX (+6,77%)
CCO.TO BHP GEV BWXT ATI (they supply turbine parts to GEV, Rolls Royce, and the other major players) And others

Rio Tinto, Glencore, BHP, Teck, Anglo American, Freeport McMoRan
Dear knowledgeable investment geniuses, after the Anglo-Teck merger and Rio Tinto reassuming talks with Glencore, do you think BHP will (be forced to) reassess their confidence "in the highly compelling potential of its own organic growth strategy" to defend their position in the industry? Best regards
Big, diversified mining companies like Rio Tinto, BHP, and Glencore with specialists like Albermarle, Cameco, Alcoa mixed in. Feels safer than investing in tech directly
why has $BHP been gapping up this year? 33.53% on the year, 10% on the month. accelerating and I don't understand it. Any ideas?

* Rio Tinto for Iron, Copper, Aluminium, Lithium * BHP for Iron, Copper, Coal, Nickel, Potash * Newmont for Gold * Pan American Silver for Silver Any better alternatives for some reasons I do not see with my non-existent knowledge on the industry?
Kinda why I'm focusing on Cobalt, just can't find a good ticker except for VALE and BHP
Rio Tinto, Freeport-McMoRan, BHP, Glencore, anything else?
anyone else in $solg? been rallying. one of the biggest undeveloped copper/gold assets out there and recent RNS's around potential takeover.. BHP etc hold chunks
# What are the best stocks/ETFs should I focus on starting from next year? For some context, I'm a 16 year old Australian that's looking to invest some money into the ASX, but I'm very new to investing and have only done some research on what the stock market is like, all the different types of things I can buy, how buying and selling works etc. I have also looked into some ETFs that I think are quite good (VAS, VGS, SEMI, IVV, VHY), but now I have more money to deposit into my account, I want to begin to buy some stocks. I currently have a casual job that earns me around 300 per month, and my main goal is long term investing, and making the money growth over a long time, like 20-30 years, or maybe even 'till retirement. I have a low-moderate risk tolerance, which is why I have only chosen ETFs so far. I'm not sure where to start though, and what type of research to do. Should I look into bigger companies like NBA, BHP, Wesfarmers etc., or pick out some different types of investments like commodities for example. I'm still looking towards ETFs cause I know they're lower risk and generally grow over time, but I also want to expose my money to something higher risk with long term growth potential. The past year gold has been flying, and I've seen some people say that it will continue to have a bullish trend, so I'm also considering that as well. ASX: GOLD ETF is the primary one. Overall, I just want some help on what to buy for steady, but also occasional risked growth, especially stocks and which sector is best to buy. I'm currently still doing research, but it would also be great if anyone could help me on what type of research to do, like analyzing historical performances, or deeper statistics something like that. Thanks
I own Lifezone Metals for the Kabanga project in Tanzania. Everything in Kazakhstan goes through Kazatomprom who are a London listed company with the same disclosure requirements as any other mining company (i.e. no more dodgy than a Rio Tinto or BHP). Uranium being such a controlled mineral makes it one of the easiest commodities to run the numbers on.
Emerging market ETF, pick your country. Copper, platinum, uranium. XME, NXE, VWO, URA, BHP. GLD if you want some gold, even if it has run up. Iβd stick closer to silver and platinum (Iβm already at 4% gold in my port). Somewhere there is a quote, buying right always feels wrong. The times are changing. These trades might not feel great for another few years. I have just begun to trim my winnings and move into commodities and energy. Β
Itβs funny because itβs basically this: βAI infrastructure provider says AI infrasctructure will keep growing forever!!β Itβs the same when Vale do Rio Doce, BHP and Rio Tinto kept saying demand for Iron Ore would keep high lol
**Interesting thesis, but I'm skeptical this meeting is the catalyst you think it is.** Here's why: **On the "catalyst":** * **Meetings β market-moving events** \- High-level diplomatic meetings happen constantly. Unless there's a *specific* deal announcement, the market usually shrugs * **"Buy the rumor, sell the news"** \- If this meeting is publicly known and you're aware of it, so is everyone else. It's likely already priced in * **RIO's diversification** \- Rio Tinto is a global miner. U.S.-Australia relations are just one small piece of their business. Iron ore to China is still their biggest driver **On critical minerals:** Yes, critical minerals are strategically important, but: * What specific policy change are you expecting from this meeting? * AUKUS is about submarines, not necessarily mining contracts * Critical mineral agreements take years to implement - not immediate stock catalysts **On the options play:** You mention 27% IV is "relatively low" - but what's your actual trade? * Are you buying calls ahead of 10/20? * What strike and expiration? * What's your exit plan if the meeting is a non-event? **The real questions:** 1. **What's the actual mechanism** by which this meeting moves RIO's stock price? 2. **What's priced in?** The market knows about this meeting too 3. **Why RIO specifically** vs. other Australian miners (BHP, FMG)? 4. **Time horizon** \- You mention "long-term growth" but then reference a specific meeting date. Which is it? **My take:** This feels like you're retrofitting a bullish thesis around a news event. RIO might be a fine long-term hold based on fundamentals, but banking on a diplomatic meeting as a catalyst is speculative at best. If you want to play it, maybe consider it as part of a broader commodities/mining thesis rather than a binary event play. What's your actual position/plan here?
BHP AustralianΒ Iron ore producer, 30 billion in usd in 2024
It honestly kinda already has come to fruition. It's difficult to substantiate due to the obfuscated nature of the data under the new admin, but the signs are there. BHP in Australia agreed to do deals in RMB, as do many other countries' private sectors. China's net agricultural imports have increased while not trading with the US. Upticks in the US cost of living are consistently double digits plus every month. US agribusiness is completely fucked short and long term (exports subsidised local produce and they have no cheap labour) Gold and silver prices have sky-rocketed Countries are all quietly moving to de-dolarise via private companies, rotations out of US bonds have remained consistent, though this is hard to substantiate also. This isn't even a slow and quiet melt down either. It is simply competing for air amongst the litteral fascist pseudo military takeover of US cities. And the Epstein thing, and the shutdown, etc. The rare earth is going to kick out the last leg of the US stock market by crippling the darlings of the NASDAQ. Telsa, nvidia, Meta, Oracle, and Microsoft have out all their chips into AI and have no capacity to manufacture the underlying hardware without China. The USA has lost all relevance economically for the next half century. The craziest shit is that people still refuse to acknowledge that the US is in the middle of an economic depression while The Whitehouse "randomly" stops reporting of food security, openly admits to tampering with core economic statistics and commits blatant securities fraud etc.
100%. I'm glad you've hung on as well. You and me both. We DFV'ed this stock lmao. I think the trend will continue. They've got the cash (now thanks to that 700 mill capital raise), assets, tech, team, plan and knowhow to take this company to Rio or BHP levels by building out the REE circuit and getting another mine online. I fully expect now we'll see 100+ a share in a few years with UUUU.
Puts on BHP. China halts purchases of BHP iron ore after price dispute and bans BHP cargo
My exposure to copper is an Australian Copper Junior called CODA Minerals - approximately 1 millions shares at about AUD $0.099 average. I'm banking on a $4 share price when either production commences, or it's bought out by its much bigger next door neighbour, BHP Billiton. The company is still in the pre production phase which makes it a risky play, which also means the share price is heavily discounted. They just had an independent valuation carried out that said the fully diluted share price (which includes another funding raise next year) is AUD $0.46. Currently the stock is at AUD $0.135. The current funding raise is to bank roll their PFS. Right now, it's officially a copper/silver play, but they're working on bring cobalt back into their flow sheet. By itself, cobalt is about a AUD $1.5 billion resource (pre tax). By bringing Cobalt back into the mix, Coda will be entitled to a lot of Australian government funding and tax breaks available to companies mining minerals related to decarbonisation. It's a 100% gamble at this point, do your own DD.
Some of the **top lithium stocks** regularly highlighted by analysts and investors include Lithium Americas (LAC), Albemarle (ALB), and Lithium Argentina (LAR). Each of these companies presents a different risk/reward profile and exposure to the lithium market. **Quick overview of notable lithium stocks:** - **Lithium Americas (LAC):** - Pure-play lithium development company focused on Thacker Pass in Nevada, one of the worldβs largest known lithium resources. - Thacker Pass is under construction, targeting first production in 2028. General Motors owns a 38% stake in the project, which gives it high-profile backing. - LACβs financial health shows a strong liquidity position (quick ratio: 10.30) but negative returns on assets and equity, reflecting early-stage development and lack of current sales. - No current dividend and trading at a significant discount to analyst estimated fair value. - Price as of late September 2025: ~$2.68β2.77 per share. - Not in major indices following recent removal from the S&P/TSX Composite Index. - **Albemarle (ALB):** - One of the **largest global lithium producers** with operations across multiple continents. - Currently profitable, with positive (though modest) profitability metrics (ROA: 0.40%, ROE: 0.84%). - Diversified, less speculative than Lithium Americas, but with lower upside potential due to already large scale. - Price/Earnings (P/E): 104.29 (indicating high investor growth expectations, possibly overvalued). - **Lithium Argentina (LAR):** - Primary operations in South America, fits the profile of an emerging, high-risk/high-reward company. - Poor profitability metrics as of latest data, very limited in market cap compared to ALB. - For pure lithium exposure but geographically more concentrated than LAC or ALB. **Other global mining majors** (e.g., BHP, Rio Tinto, Vale) also have lithium or battery metals exposure, but lithium is a small proportion of their overall business and stock performance. | Metric | LAC | LAR | ALB | |--------|-----|-----|-----| | Market Ca

To balance my portfolio, I wanted to own property, concrete things, like mines. Even if you buy index funds like $SPY or $VVT youβve invested 20% or more in technology companies that may or may not make the final cut; e.g anyone think that IBM may come out on top with quantum computing? Place your bets everyone!. My philosophy is if thereβs a gold rush, sell shovels. This gold rush requires lots of copper and energyβnuclear energy and SMRs. So I balanced my portfolio with. $BHP, $RIO, $SCCO, and $CCJ. $CCJ has a stake in WestingHouse, a producer of SMRs.
My hit list; MP, GPHOF, EU, LAC, LMT, CLF, FCX, UUUU, BHP. I'm looking for positions on chokepoints in domestic material chains with room to scale and permits in hand. Upside looks good in trade wars or in a booming economy. Downside is somewhat limited outside of a stagflation or something.
I see you have a small position in Nouveau Monde Graphite (NMG), dual-listed in U.S. and Canada. Hereβs my insights on that one: I had been trading in and out of NMG until about 18 months ago in anticipation of government doing something to secure graphite but missed the boat on Thursdayβs announcement. Oh, well, donβt care, so consider the below a PSA for you WSB degenerates. Note: this is not a recommendation to buy or sell NMG securities -it is simply for information. Do your own due diligence. NMG currently has $333 mm mkt. cap. And is developing a large graphite mine in Quebec. The plan is to be part of the graphite value chain by also developing a graphite processing facility, also in Quebec, to refine the raw graphite from their mine to battery grade graphite. One reason I got interested was its list of blue chip strategic investors (ie, their meaningful holdings are netted out to arrive at the smallish free float). Top holders according to the Google: 1. β Canadian Growth Fund 13.0% 2. β Pallinghurst Graphite 12.0% 3. β Mitsui & Co. 8.9% 4. β GM 8.2% No. 1 is a govt-linked private fund designed to support Canadian growth companies. No. 2 is a private metals-focused investor co-founded by Brian Gilbertson, who way back in the day led the foundational merger between Australiaβs Broken Hill Proprietary and S. Africaβs Billiton that launched todayβs mining giant BHP (Brian is old and not too involved in day-to-day anymore, I think). No. 3 is very large Japanese trading house and No. 4 is the American at the table. Management is controlled by Pallinghurst, embodied by their hype man Arne Frandsen who is Chairman of the Board. Arne is a former JP Morgan banker who is always hyping the next bandwagon Pallinghurst has just jumped on (google him and Sedibelo Platinum for PGMs or Talon Metals for nickel). Pallinghurst, via Sedibelo, had a good platinum mine in S. Africa with another list of blue chip investors but didnβt have the chops to manage thru a downturn in PGM prices, which makes me a little jaundiced to their leadership here. On the flip side Talon just hit a bonanza-grade hole on their Minnesota property and have recently mooned from deathβs door. I gave up on NMG because while they have been very good about articulating the investment thesis and lining up quality investors, I had wanted them to start putting a spade in the ground and turning over some dirt. They have a slick website and Arne is all about the hype. Maybe now we have some synchronicity where all that hype meets the moment and they accelerate the mineβs development. Anyway, thatβs all I got. I feel like I may have just handed out rifles to a bunch of regards; remember: a rifle is good for hunting or for killing yourself -try to figure out which end of the rifle you are holding before you pull the trigger (i.e., do some due diligence of your own before you do anything else!).

NTCPF is copper and goldβ¦. 3.1 billion lbs of copper already discovered 7 million oz of gold A ton of Infrastructure already in place from an old BHP mine that used to be near by NPV is $5 billion (CAD) with gold at $2900 and copper at $4.60 Whatβs $AVLβs PEA/NPV looking like? Are they still exploring? When do they plan to begin production? How committed is the current CEO to zero dilution? Are they funded? How much mineral do they currently have and what spot prices are they using?
At the conference last week, BHP was voted as the best run mining giant. AEM the best run gold miner.
Itβs cyclic, when iron ores prices were high their share price was high a few years ago and on top of that they have a nice dividend. They are pivoting to copper which will be great in the long term - through I prefer Glencore and BHP who have better management.
I actually think their location is pretty bullish. Youβd know more about Canada than me but BHP ran a mine there for 30 years before and that provides existing infrastructure to NorthIsle. Airport, paved roads, electric, water access and a port to ship their product for selling to Japan and other countries over seas. Iβm not really huge on mining in general but weβre undeniably in a commodities bull market and gold and copper will do very well. Every time the prices go up it just raises NorthIsleβs projectβs value
Thatβs fair but the CEO Sam Lee has said he is committed to no dilution. Heβs been very transparent with the shareholders this far. They are debt free and fully funded for their exploration at this time. Theyβre currently looking for a partnership right now too with more drill results coming out over the next 6 months! They already have all the infrastructure from an old BHP mine less than 10 miles away!
RioTinto, Vale, BHP AIRBUS enterprise,
- Defense stocks that actually have the capacity for wartime production and increasing production quickly to actually get defense spending. EX LHX NOC RTX. - Canadian or American oil producers ( not diversified, pure NA plays. Ex CNQ - us mining companies ( not diversified miners) ex MP - us chip makers ex Texas instruments Avoid Everything involving trade in SEA or China in their supply chain. Ie Nike, Avoid anything that gets a majority of revenue from China or SEA EX Starbucks Avoid Chinese or SEA stocks. Avoid travel/hotel companies. EX booking, Hilton, Marriott Avoid diversified miners especially in iron or copper ore with the main customer being China. Ex BHP, RIO. Avoid anything manufacturing related from China/SEA and focus on made in Europe or NA companies. Avoid tech companies like apple that rely on trade with China.
I have started buying more commodities - commodities themselves as well as miners and refiners, VLO, BP, BHP, FCX plus UVIX as a defensive strategy. Market has been too goo for too long. However, a great argument can be made for AI continued growth.
My nice boring stock: RIO & BHP. For sure cyclical, but always bounce back. Great dividends and have been around for +100 years.
If you're feeling a little open to risk, NVO is probably a good pick up if you're gonna hold for a few years. Mining companies like RIO and BHP have been beaten up quite a bit this year too, and have great dividends to tide you over
Next up I want to hedge my BHP position with vale.....
Been buying AU miners lately, FMG, BHP, RIO, some of these have very low PE ratios in the 7-8 range and pay a 5-9% dividend lol.
RIO VALE BHP in the green pre market .
Aussie mining stocks, BHP/RIO/FMG. Some one has to dig up all the minerals for stuff
Iβve gone with FCX and BHP to see which one turns out best after 5 years
BHP, ANZ, ULVR,, WFD and IFT Boring banking, mining, consumer staple, infra and real estate behemoths that I am fairly confident will around for the long haul. No US stocks because starting point valuations matter.
Just off the top of my head: 1. Telstra 2. Quantaβs 3. Atlassian 4. Canva 5. BHP 6. Macquarie 7. Westpac 8. Wesfarmers 9. Cochlear 10. Rio Tinto
I agree with the sentiment but wanted to try anyway, could only come up with 6 BHP Rio Tinto Resmed Cochlear Atlassian Canva Maybe Macquarie
In college I called in and got on the air. My first big investment gain on Potash. Went all in and they were bought out by BHP shortly after. First taste of tendie heaven.
Everything is a bloodbath but for the 3 companies of choice do Rhinemetall, Gold, and MP Materials. The food should be Dollar Tree (if not allowed do DG or CPB), then for oil do BHP group since it goes mining. Tech stocks are really bad, invest in something that's recession proof like cyber security, PANW (Palo Alto Networks), and for health just choose United healthcare
Will mining and rare earth materials companies like VALE, FCX, and BHP start to skyrocket because of this?
Any thoughts on companies like VALE or BHP coming down the line? Anyone know if we see rare earth materials and miners start to rise in value with the tariffs since the end cost us passed to the consumer?
What's going on with BHP? Did anyone see that?
TheΒ **Rio Tinto Group**, has spent close to US $3 billion on potential mine sites in Arizona and Alaska and still does not have the necessary licenses and permits from the U.S. Government to begin building a mine in either place Rio Tinto bets on Trump support for long-stalled Arizona copper [mine](https://www.mining.com/rio-tinto-bets-on-trump-support-for-long-stalled-arizona-copper-mine/) They have the equipment and expertise. **BHP**, **Antofagasta**, **Freeport-McMoRan**, **Barrick Gold** are many other companies are wanting to mine in the US if regulations are lifted.
Isn't BHP based in Australia?
If you're not shorting these companies for April 2 lib day idk what to tell you AZN FCX GSK BHP RIO NVS WFG SCCO RDY
$SPY Since my mining DD: -4.7% $RIO: +0.39% $VALE: -1.12% $BHP: -2.2% $BTG: +5.5% $GOLD: +4%
The US imports almost all of its uranium for fueling nuclear reactors, much of it from Canada, so the US producers are likely to benefit and charge a premium on their (limited) output. We're already seeing a gap in spot pricing appear between material stored in the US and uranium sitting in Canada and France. When tariffs are actually applied this gap almost certainly widens to just below the value of the tariff. Buyers don't really have much choice, Kazakhstan is shifting its export focus to neighbours Russia and China due to rising transportation costs, and BHP have no plans to increase their output at Olympic Dam in Australia. Russia's biggest mine is at least partially flooded. China own most of the African projects. The next big mines expected to fulfil rising global demand are all in Saskatchewan.
VALE and BHP are turds better to be in $TECK and $FCX
BHP and RIO poised
If anyone is looking for a junior copper company with a decent board and is sitting on a good amount of untapped copper in a tier one jurisdiction, COD:ASX is worth a look. Courtesy of an oversubscribed capital raise where insiders accumulated, they've allocated some funds to drilling in a locations with very similar seismic and gravitational anomaly characteristics to an existing identified resource. And right now there's a coin toss play in motion, this drilling is being undertaken now and should report by end of the current quarter. If they find more copper, share price should bounce quite nicely, if they don't, well I might be DCAing... again. They'll either develop the project themselves or be bought out by their next door neighbour... BHP. All up I have 620k shares @ an average of AUD$0.097 (been buying in since $0.22) and 86k call options (Mar 28'29 $0.15 Call). Aside from my holdings, I have no other interest or links with CODA.
Completely disagree. One, I don't think you need to be a mining expert to read the balance sheets and follow management guidance, especially for companies that have been stewards to the shareholders like Barrick Gold/B2Gold and don't have a history of lying. Second, the margins are actually amazing. AISCs are quite low compared to the price of gold, typically under $1500 which is 50% margin given today's price. Even large scale non-gold miners like BHP and VALE are sitting at 20-30% operating margins even while the price of the metals are quite low.

BHP RIO seeking down after hours iron ore stocks great shorts watch VALE lose 9.50 here opens like 9.2-9.3 in am
BHP about to lose 50. Iron ore selling down ah
BHP getting drilled lower after hours . Metals will get sold tomorrow
Shirting VALE on BHP drop after hours
Look at VZ, BHP, RIO, and BDCβs : GLAD ( mo pay ), OBDC and GBDC. These should suffice for your purposes.
Brand new mine coming online shortly as well. BHP Hilton I think, production is supposed to be huge.
I never understand the argument of "S&P 500 companies generate revenue overseas / worldwide so that's enough diversification". You think Toyota, ASML, LVMH, Spotify, Novo Nordisk, BHP Billiton, Shell, Airbus, Total, BMW, British American Tobacco, SAP, Samsung, Vestas, Novartis, Unilever, GSK, TSMC and Nintendo don't have worldwide revenue?? They only earn money in their home markets??
Mining companies in Japan are mainly operating in Australia and South Africa, not in the ocean around Japan. Many of the minerals are sufficiently provided to the US by Glencore, BHP, FCX, AMS, and Lynus. Problems with the cost will prevent them from exploiting the deposit for a while. Since I do not have an account of a US securities company, I have no idea whether you can trade Japanese stocks in the Schwab market. Maybe you can buy them through the OTC market.
Yup, some actual pennystocks in there. BHP at $50/share.
Blue chip mineral companies like Rio Tinto and BHP (who are currently very undervalued). According to the Discounted Cash Flow calculation, they are supposed to be around 100$ per stock to be considered "fair value" but currently going in the 50$ and 65$ range.
