BHP

Rebasing investor expectations for BHP without the contribution from its petroleum business places the stock on a forward yield of 6% with flat to lower adjusted EPS into FY23.

Iron ore now represents around 50%, Copper 25%, with Coal and Nickel remaining other key exposures. We expect the eventual divestment of its remaining thermal coal assets.

Tabcorp Demerger

Tabcorp split into two businesses yesterday:

  • A wagering business, which will continue to be called Tabcorp (TAH)
  • And a lotteries business, new name The Lottery Corporation (TLC). 

Bitcoin – Sell Signal

The rebound in the NASDAQ has been sharp and it’s possible we’re now looking at a level of overhead resistance. For crypto investors, this provides an opportunity to consider hedging or an outright short position.

23/4/22 update: The NASDAQ continues to move lower reflecting a risk-off sentiment, which is also impacting Bitcoin. BTC is under Algo Engine sell conditions and we remain short Bitcoin futures as an open trade.

26/5 update: Bitcoin has continued to trade lower and we now identify the overhead resistance at 30590 as the first level to watch for a potential price reversal. Since flagging the “short” setup in Bitcoin on 7 April, the crypto has lost 15,000 in the move from 45,000 down to 30,000.
