    . Has anyone seen a silver lining around this dark cloud yet?

    I don't post here very often, I "lurk".But I have a view of an industry update that I will share.The Coking coal industry is at a turning point right now. Consumption by China has exploded (in a good way). BUT stocks were at an all time high. We need to wait another 2…[Read more]

    In my opinion, still too early to get into CF+ in the bowen basin.I suspect the price of houses for sale is dropping, and the renters are not there, and it's getting worse.Coal mining companies have slashed contractors and are all looking at approx 30% cuts to their OWN workforce. They will not normally award contracts while at the same time…[Read more]

The comments were more my own view from within the industry. (I guess that you too might be involved).  Also, the articles were before the recent world events…[Read more]
