About: BHP is a global diversified miner mainly supplying iron ore and copper. The merger of BHP Limited and Billiton PLC created the present-day BHP Group. The dual-listed structure from the 2001 BHP and Billiton merger was collapsed in 2022. Major assets include Pilbara iron ore and Escondida copper. Onshore US oil and gas assets were sold in 2018 and the remaining Petroleum assets were spun off and merged with Woodside in 2022, with BHP vesting the Woodside shares it received to BHP shareholders. It purchased copper miner Oz Minerals in fiscal 2023 and is entering the potash market through the development of its Jansen project in Canada. However, due to low nickel prices, BHP is placing its nickel business on care and maintenance in late 2024.

5 Stocks to Keep an Eye on as Copper Prices Approach Record Highs

BHP Group Is Better Than Vale If You Really Want Mining Exposure

Vale's stock has declined significantly since my last writing and trades at a P/E ratio of only ~5x. Yet, I still maintain a bearish outlook and want to caution you against bottom-fishing attempts. Key commodity prices have fallen significantly, and I foresee the price pressure to persist given the increased competition from China and other miners.

BHP Group: Long-Standing Preference For Rio Tinto, Neutral Rating Confirmed

We maintain a neutral rating on BHP Group due to balanced risk-reward, materialized Samarco settlement risks, and preference for Rio Tinto's cheaper valuation and organic growth. BHP's H1 2025 results showed a $2 billion sales decline, an 11% drop in EBITDA, and unchanged production guidance despite strong operational performance and lower unit costs. BHP's net debt is expected to rise to $15 billion, and its dividend payout will be trimmed by 50%. This is due to CAPEX plans and settlement costs.
