Opinions for stocks held in the Emerging Companies Portfolio

13/09/2024 09:17

Paladin Energy Ltd (PDN) $9.79

PDN has surged over +20% from this week's low, but we shouldn’t get carried away; it's still substantially below this year's high. PDN is our preferred pick among the ASX uranium names for a couple of reasons:

12/09/2024 09:09

Sandfire Resources Ltd (SFR) $8.50

SFR’s performance has been relatively impressive this year. Even after correcting ~20% on global economic jitters, it's up +12.8% year-to-date, while most ASX miners have fallen significantly through 2024. Many fund managers agree with MM that you cannot afford to be underweight Cu when the global economy and EV demand improve, as they eventually will because the industrial metal will be in short supply.

Emerging Companies Portfolio

CAT’s products and solutions are used by more than 4,000 sports teams and athletes across over 40 sports and 100 countries worldwide.

Steadfast (SDF) $5.96 & Johns Lyng Group (JLG) $3.45

Four Corners aired an expose into the murky world of strata management overnight that highlighted the conflicts throughout the industry, with strata managers conflicted with developers (who would allocate their next management agreement), insurers who are paying kickbacks to strata managers for the sale of insurance products and then finally, preferred building and maintenance contractors that have cross-shareholdings and a range of conflicts, none of which seemed to be disclosed to underlying owners.

05/09/2024 09:47

Sandfire Resources Ltd (SFR) $8.04

Last week, SFR was trading above $9, with a recovery back towards $10 looking like a strong possibility as Cu bounced above the $US4.00/lb. However, renewed economic concerns have sent the miner back towards its 12-month low.

04/09/2024 07:29

Silex Systems (SLX) $3.80

Last Friday, Silex reported a FY24 net loss of A$23m, which was to be expected. As a refresher, Silex, in conjunction with Cameco (CCJ US), is developing a laser technology to enrich uranium at a facility in Kentucky, US. The primary commercial application of the technology is the production of different grades of fuel for the nuclear power industry, which is licensed exclusively to Global Laser Enrichment (GLE), a joint venture comprising Silex (51%) and Cameco (49%).

29/08/2024 17:22

Sandfire Resources (SFR) $8.55

SFR -3.06%: Not a lot of new news today given they are providing more detail in their quarterlies, however, FY24 was all inline with expectations and FY25 guidance shows good cost control and confirms this should be a very strong year operationally.

29/08/2024 09:41

Nine Entertainment Co Holdings Ltd (NEC) $1.35

NEC shares edged up +0.75% on Wednesday after they reported a ~20% decline in profits courtesy of weakness in advertising, however, there were some green shoots coming through this result as they progressively move towards a digital platform business relative to an older style media business;
