i hold S32

probably won't move the ( share price ) needle , but gives some idea of all the regulatory hurdles a production company faces ( in current times )

Particularly in the Jarrah forests of the South West of WA.

nmS32 net cash position increased by $US299 million to $US252 million ($395 million) in the latest quarter, partly due to a one-off $100 million receipt from operational agreements at its Worsley Alumina project in Western Australia.

As well, it was buoyed by its operating results and a partial unwind in working capital.

“Looking ahead, our focus on operating discipline, active cost management and a strong balance sheet leaves us well positioned to manage a period of potential uncertainty in global markets,” South32 chief executive Graham Kerr said.

i hold S32 ( partly due to the BHP demerger )

hmmm

that will bump S32 further down my priority list ( to top up )

hint it ain't in the top 20 on that list as it is currently

looks like more acquisitions and long-winded asset developments ( but i hope i am wrong on that )

From it's Current price i can see 40% upside & have put it on my Watch/Wait List, may be a Nice Trade in the near Future!

good luck with that

i see mid-term disappointment as the new CEO ( when he gets to the top job ) to go for more greenfield and brownfield projects while trying to pivot further away from coal ( which are mainly active mines )

but completing that transition is still months away , maybe @Sean K can get that graceful exit , if he chooses to take it

theoretically my S32 cost me less than $1

after buying some ( extra ) @ $2.63 in August 2019 , and reducing @ $4.40 in March 2023 and further reducing @ $3.64 in March 2025 ( rescuing the cash investment 3 times over )

while i have done very nicely here , personally , i have found the company rather disappointing

Has this 'thing' got anymore potential impairments left in its locker?

Mozal, Hermosa and Worsley took a bit of shine off the bottom line... S32's forecast is rather uninspiring too----might be time to get in!

i tried to add just before the ex-div. date but missed my target

i won't be rushing to add currently , but things can always change

aluminum has been a drag on most of the big players unless S32 can buy some bauxite assets cheap that area is liable to be a further write-down later , that sector is liable to be a further value write-down

if Russia decided to ban aluminum exports to non-BRICS nations that would be a game-changer

I’m going to jump into S32 come Tuesday.

It’s a calculated risk, hopefully with plenty of upside.

The chart has reversed from being a dog to showing some signs it might have bottomed and on the way back from a TA/charting perspective.

Aluminium, silver, copper, zinc, lead, nickel, manganese and metallurgical coal are the resources mined.

With the resource/commodity boom now rocking and rolling, I think it’s worth the risk.

Of course use your own analysis and have stops in place.
