This summary was created by AI, based on 14 opinions in the last 12 months.

Rio Tinto has been receiving considerable attention from analysts, thanks to its strong dividend yield of around 4.5% and expected growth driven by surging demand for iron ore, copper, and aluminum, particularly linked to China's booming export economy and the rise of AI data centers. Several experts indicate a positive trajectory, citing a significant run-up in stock prices and emphasizing careful portfolio management given its increasing weight in investor portfolios. However, concerns about the cyclical nature of the commodities market and the potential for stock retracement are also noted, urging investors to be disciplined in adjusting their positions. With expectations of increased commodity prices and a structural bull market on the horizon, analysts are optimistic about Rio's future performance, highlighting its well-diversified resources and strong cash flow capabilities, despite caution on entering at current valuations.

He owns it for the big, fat yield. Longer term, an interesting play. Dividend varies with earnings, and will probably be lower in the next 12 months. Yield cut in half would still be a respectable 5-6%. Buy in stages.

RIO vs. TECK.B Similar companies, with one big difference. RIO gets 65% of revenue from iron ore. TECK.B is more focused on coal, zinc, and energy. He'd choose TECK.B today. RIO will be OK, but suffering because iron ore prices have come down. This will ultimately reverse. Looking out 3 years, both should do quite well.

PAST TOP PICK

Rio Tinto(RIO)

Sep 23, 2021
(A Top Pick Jul 27/20, Up 26%) Had a good run. Iron ore prices have corrected. Interesting area around this price. He'd want to see it turn higher over the next 2-3 weeks before he added new positions. If we're in a commodity cycle, this could be a leading stock for a very long time.

Cyclicals and resource stocks will continue to do well. Worries of China slowing triggered a sell-off but these stocks are coming back. RIO is global with assets in investor-friendly countries. He likes their asset mix. The dividend is safe, but beware of withholding taxes on this. He's still buying this.

Just declared a very sizeable, special dividend. Stock dropped once that was announced, which is not atypical. Great way to play diversified materials. Iron ore has pulled back, and this is impacting the stock. Took out its old highs in January, and this usually means a new run for the stock. Buy here, if you can stomach the consolidation. Looking to be a strong performer for the next 1-2 years.

Both Australian plays. You get global plays and get exposure to a lot of metals. Mostly copper, iron ore and some energy. Hasn't bought in Canada since there are no quality companies - they were all bought by BHP and RIO. Everybody should own some global metal stocks. Buy to trade.

Metals and Mining sector. It is performing well right now. March and into April it should perform quite well due to seasonal strength. It can continue to move higher. He would put a trailing stop on it sometime in March.

Billy Kawasaki’s Insights - Picks from 5i Research. The stock is currently trading at 10x earnings, making it very cheap. If we see a rally in metals, earnings have a good leverage. They pay a healthy dividend and the balance sheet is strong. It is sensitive to commodity prices however. Unlock Premium - Try 5i Free

An Aussie play on Chinese demand for coal and steel, since RIO supplies iron ore. The Chinese industry is at capacity now, though. India's steel industry is booming now at a busy stage of industrialization, so RIO can benefit from this.

Rio Tinto(RIO)

Jul 27, 2020
We're at the bottom of the resource cycle. Rio is broadly diversified with a great portfolio or properties. The dividend pays 7%. It just broke out of a 5-year base. This is an under-owned group. (Analysts’ price target is $62.11)

If you are in a 'V' shaped recovery you should own some material stocks. Demand and supply always corrects itself. They've all had a nice little bounce. Look at it with a twelve month view.

COMMENT

Rio Tinto(RIO)

Aug 06, 2019

Commodities get vulnerable when there is concern about the market. If he was to buy a metals producer he would buy RIO-N, which is sitting on a rising moving average. TECK.B appears to have lost its upward momentum. The yield on both of these is above 5% and it will become a favorite space once investors regain their confidence.

DON'T BUY

Rio Tinto(RIO)

Jul 04, 2018

Rio Tinto (RIO-N) versus BHP (BBL-N). These are the two biggest global mining companies in the world. You want to own these when the underlying commodity prices do well. In the near term their underlying commodity prices are struggling, so he would not own either one.
