Why Chinese property worries affect us all
Andreas Lundberg
September 23, 2021
As you’ve probably read, China’s number two property developer, Evergrande, is on the verge of collapse, dragged down by excessive debt and an inability to take on more debt. Evergrande’s woes have helped send the price of iron ore plummeting – not to mention the share prices of our largest miners: BHP, Rio and Fortescue. My concern is that the problems besetting the Chinese property market will have repercussions well beyond the miners and their investors. continue…

The 3 red lines that could bring iron ore prices back to earth
Andreas Lundberg
July 1, 2021
Chinese property construction accounts for close to 30 per cent of world seaborn iron ore demand, and is probably the most important demand driver impacting the iron ore price. But with Chinese regulators trying to crimp the sector, population growth turning negative, and urbanization peaking, I think today’s lofty iron ore price will prove to be short-lived. continue…

Joseph Kim
June 7, 2021
Capricorn Metals is a junior gold company that is entering an exciting time in its development phase. With the company very close to first gold pour and commissioning underway at its 100 per cent owned Karlawinda project in WA, we believe there is significant re-rating potential if the company successfully executes on targeted project metrics over the next 6-12 months. continue…

How to profit from the boom in batteries
Roger Montgomery
April 8, 2021
According to Roskill Information Services, demand for lithium-ion batteries will increase more than ten-fold over the decade to 2029. This will inevitably lift demand – and prices – for the minerals required to make the batteries. And this should put some Australian miners in the box seat to profit from the next energy revolution. continue…

Why the global LNG price is heading north
Andreas Lundberg
January 15, 2021
Over the last couple of months, international LNG prices have been rocketing up. This is bad news for overseas consumers of our LNG exports and domestic consumers of gas, but could be positive for our gas producers and the Federal Budget, due to higher tax collections. The question is, how long will this run last? continue…

AGL faces the perfect storm
Andreas Lundberg
August 17, 2020
In what’s been a terrible year for the energy sector, AGL is the latest company to disappoint. Its full-year results included a steep drop in profits and signalled that there’s worse to come next year. While AGL intends to maintain its attractive flow of dividends, I’m not convinced this will be enough to tempt many investors given the negative outlook. continue…
