BHP, RIO, and GT have been added to the Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell) List on August 9, 2022.
BHP has seized on the slump in commodity prices to launch an A$8.4bn (US$5.8bn) cash offer for Australian rival Oz Minerals, as the world’s biggest miner seeks to boost its exposure to clean energy metals such as copper and nickel. The decision by Oz to reject the offer highlights the difficulties larger companies such as BHP may face if they try to take advantage of the decline in commodity prices to buy smaller rivals. Analysts at Morgan Stanley said that while BHP’s offer made sense, investors in Oz were “likely to weigh the offer against their expectations” of the long-term copper price.
