Can always predict , but we don't always get it right.
The Trump factor may well be different this time.

Take from the poor and give to the rich.
This time it is tariffs , which regardless of its effect on markets in the US , unlikely to be great for the OZ economy.

$BHP Group Ltd (BHP.AU)$ They've been doing a lot of clarifying lately. Everyone's been guessing if they're going to make another move on Anglo American, but BHP made it clear that their chairman's comments weren't meant to imply that.
It seems like BHP wants to avoid any unnecessary speculation or misunderstandings in the market. We'll have to wait and see what their next big move will be!

I'm a long time $South32 Ltd (S32.AU)$ shareholder, and usually a keen S32 buyer, but the past couple of weeks have been actively buying parcels of $BHP Group Ltd (BHP.AU)$ under $40. At two year lows it feels like an excellent place to build a position. It's too tempting for me to refuse!
I can understand why people are holding or selling bank shares but goodness only knows who is buying them at current prices. I sold mine and bought more BHP last week.

Escondida (Chile) has a quoted Capital Intensity for expansion of between USD$17k-USD$29k per CuEq tpa.
I am expecting that any Oak Dam development would need to be of 100,000 tpa CuEq at least (possibly 2-3 times that) to justify itself (in terms of scale to BHP, and because of depth and moderate grades released so far).
So at Escondida rates, 100,000 tpa would have development costs between about AUD$2.5B and AUD$4.3Billion.
I expect that this is very much at the low end, because of depth, and...

I’m putting an AVOID rating on Mineral Resources ( $Mineral Resources Ltd (MIN.AU)$ )….Net debt has doubled, at a time their LITHIUM mines are making no money and their higher cost IRON ORE mines puts them in a real pickle if prices fall 20% to 30%. MIN seriously needs to fix it’s balance sheet so will either have to do a heavily dilutive capital raising or sell equity stakes in some of their mines – pick your poison.

Happy Father's Day!
Dad says, 'In investing, just like cricket, patience is key.
Wait for the right pitch, and swing at the opportunities that come your way.'
He's right, and he's never been stumped yet! 💰
