Rio Tinto, a leader in metal resources production, demonstrates a strong position through its diversified offerings of materials such as iron ore, aluminum, copper, and lithium. Analysts are optimistic about the company's growth, particularly in copper production, which is expected to rise over 30% in the next three years. With trading metrics showing attractive ratios, including a price-to-earnings ratio of around 10x-11.37x, the stock is considered a solid investment, especially with dividend yields ranging from 5.9% to 7.3%. Experts highlight the importance of keeping an eye on the global economy, particularly China's influence on commodity prices, suggesting that long-term value and sustainability of the dividend remain key factors for investment decisions. Overall, the stock presents a favorable risk-reward ratio with substantial upside potential and is favored by experts for its strong cash reserves and declining debt.
If you believe that the iron price doesn't fall further, then a pretty decent buy here. For those who believe in his natural resource thesis over 5 years, you have to own it. Need to pay attention to the global economy, but especially the Chinese economy.
He's less concerned about 20% fluctuations in the stock price over time, and more concerned about long-term value and the sustainability of the dividend.
A safer bet in minerals is RIO, which trades at 11.37x earnings. It mines not only copper, but also aluminum, diamonds, gold and particularly iron ore. Also attractive is its solid 6.59% dividend yield, far higher than Teck's 0.84%, for example. Rio is a favourite of Stockchaser Michael O'Reilly who likes the company's growing cash reserves, declining debt and 20% return on equity.
As a leader of metal resources production, we reiterate RIO as a TOP PICK. Management is optimistic that a commitment to aluminum smelter development in Australia is supportive for the company's plans. We like that cash reserves are growing, while debt is retired. It trades at 9x earnings, under 2x book and supports a 20% ROE. The robust dividend is backed by a payout ratio of 70% of cash flow. We recommend trailing up the stop (from $49) to $58 at this time, looking to achieve $82 -- upside potential of 32%. Yield 6.2%
(Analysts’ price target is $81.93)It's a play on the Chinese economy, which is not doing well.
The company is engaged in new iron ore, copper, and lithium projects worldwide -- looking to increase capital spending 33% to $9.5 billion. It trades at 9x earnings, 1.7x book and supports a 19% ROE. It pays a solid dividend, backed by a payout ratio under 67% of cash flow. We recommend setting a stop-loss at $49, looking to achieve $82 -- upside potential of 38%. Yield 7.3%
(Analysts’ price target is $82.20)Highly volatile in the past 3 years and has been sideways, long term. She sees 25% upside and the street ranks this a buy. Energy could do well, depending on the US election.
Is struggling given perceived weakness of China's economy. He's owned this a long time and won't sell it. RIO generates a lot of free cash, has a reasonable development pipeline, a great iron business and a good copper business. But traders may see near-term weakness given China's outlook.
Low-cost leader in the iron ore space, with copper assets and a nice distribution.
It's trading as if iron ore were at $60, so the stock is overly discounted. Pays a huge 7.2% dividend, which pays you a lot alone. Upside is ahead.
Mainly iron ore, but also copper. Good assets in a lower cost jurisdiction. World-class. Variable dividend based on earnings. Tons of free cashflow. Looking to expand copper, a big growth driver for the next decade. Still cheap. Lots of years left for good returns in the sector.
A UK company, leveraged to the China reopening and shares are cheap.
It has pulled back recently so you could buy it here. He likes the dividend and its participation in commodity prices. We are in a commodity cycle.
