It earns most of its profit from Western Australian iron ore sold to Asian steelmakers, alongside major copper, metallurgical coal, and potash operations. Its scale and low-cost assets make it a bellwether for global commodities.","Copper is the stated growth pillar.

Management frames electrification, including data center and grid demand driven by AI, as a core reason copper needs decades of new supply.","Founded in 1885, BHP is headquartered in Melbourne, Australia, employs about 39,000 people, and its US-listed shares trade on the NYSE.

Data centers, transmission lines, and grid upgrades all consume copper, and BHP's Escondida, Copper South Australia, and Resolution assets make it one of the largest suppliers of that metal. AI-driven electrification is a genuine demand tailwind management cites explicitly, but it is one driver among many. Iron ore for steelmaking, not the buildout, still decides BHP's earnings in any given year.","faq":[{"q":"What does BHP Group do?","a":"BHP is the world's largest diversified mining company, producing iron ore, copper, metallurgical coal, and potash. Its biggest profit engine is Western Australian iron ore, while copper operations like Escondida in Chile anchor its growth strategy."},{"q":"How is BHP Group exposed to AI?","a":"Copper demand from data centers, transmission lines, and grid upgrades is an explicit part of BHP's copper growth thesis. Supercycle rates it Peripheral with an AI Exposure Score of 15 out of 100, since iron ore still dominates earnings."},{"q":"What are BHP's main copper assets?","a":"BHP operates Escondida in Chile, the world's largest copper mine, is expanding Copper South Australia around Olympic Dam, and holds the undeveloped Resolution project in Arizona. Together they form one of the biggest copper growth pipelines in mining."},{"q":"Who leads BHP Group?","a":"Brandon Craig became chief executive officer in July 2026, succeeding Mike Henry after leading BHP's Americas operations. The company was founded in 1885, is headquartered in Melbourne, Australia, and employs about 39,000 people."},{"q":"Is BHP a pure play AI stock?","a":"No. Supercycle classifies BHP as Peripheral with a score of 15 out of 100. Copper gives real leverage to AI-era electrification, but BHP is a diversified miner whose results turn on steel demand and commodity cycles."}],"history1y":[{"date":"2026-09-22","close":87.83},{"date":"2026-09-23","close":84.95},{"date":"2026-09-24","close":85.09},{"date":"2026-09-25","close":84.97},{"date":"2026-09-28","close":84.58},{"date":"2026-09-29","close":84.82},{"date":"2026-09-30","close":84.84},{"date":"2026-10-01","close":84.65},{"date":"2026-10-02","close":86.07},{"date":"2026-10-05","close":86.83},{"date":"2026-10-06","close":87},{"date":"2026-10-07","close":85.22},{"date":"2026-10-08","close":84.83},{"date":"2026-10-09","close":86.74},{"date":"2026-10-12","close":86.72},{"date":"2026-10-13","close":84.95},{"date":"2026-10-14","close":83.26},{"date":"2026-10-15","close":82.9},{"date":"2026-10-16","close":83.29},{"date":"2026-10-19","close":83.22},{"date":"2026-10-20","close":81.87},{"date":"2026-10-21","close":80.82},{"date":"2026-10-22","close":77.58},{"date":"2026-10-23","close":77.85},{"date":"2026-10-26","close":79.13},{"date":"2026-10-27","close":82.6},{"date":"2026-10-28","close":82.22},{"date":"2026-10-29","close":81.82},{"date":"2026-10-30","close":79.16},{"date":"2026-11-02","close":80.07}],"incomeStatements":[{"ticker":"BHP","report_period":"2026-12-31","fiscal_period":"2026-FY","period":"annual","currency":"USD","revenue":58760000000,"cost_of_revenue":14351000000,"gross_profit":44409000000,"operating_expense":0,"operating_income":25501000000,"net_income":9833000000,"earnings_per_share":3.864,"earnings_per_share_diluted":3.864,"research_and_development":0,"selling_general_and_administrative_expenses":7810000000,"interest_expense":0,"income_tax_expense":0,"weighted_average_shares_diluted":0},{"ticker":"BHP","report_period":"2025-12-31","fiscal_period":"2025-FY","period":"annual","currency":"USD","revenue":51262000000,"cost_of_revenue":14531000000,"gross_profit":36731000000,"operating_expense":0,"operating_income":19078000000,"net_income":9019000000,"earnings_per_share":3.548,"earnings_per_share_diluted":3.548,"research_and_development":0,"selling_general_and_administrative_expenses":7516000000,"interest_expense":0,"income_tax_expense":0,"weighted_average_shares_diluted":0},{"ticker":"BHP","report_period":"2024-12-31","fiscal_period":"2024-FY","period":"annual","currency":"USD","revenue":55658000000,"cost_of_revenue":15113000000,"gross_profit":40545000000,"operating_expense":0,"operating_income":22905000000,"net_income":7897000000,"earnings_per_share":3.11,"earnings_per_share_diluted":3.11,"research_and_development":0,"selling_general_and_administrative_expenses":7345000000,"interest_expense":0,"income_tax_expense":0,"weighted_average_shares_diluted":0},{"ticker":"BHP","report_period":"2023-12-31","fiscal_period":"2023-FY","period":"annual","currency":"USD","revenue":53817000000,"cost_of_revenue":15913000000,"gross_profit":37904000000,"operating_expense":0,"operating_income":21957000000,"net_income":12921000000,"earnings_per_share":5.094,"earnings_per_share_diluted":5.094,"research_and_development":0,"selling_general_and_administrative_expenses":7243000000,"interest_expense":0,"income_tax_expense":0,"weighted_average_shares_diluted":0}],"balanceSheets":[{"ticker":"BHP","report_period":"2026-12-31","fiscal_period":"2026-FY","period":"annual","currency":"USD","total_assets":121387000000,"current_assets":31033000000,"cash_and_equivalents":18445000000,"total_liabilities":65066000000,"current_liabilities":16465000000,"total_debt":27121000000,"shareholders_equity":49420000000,"retained_earnings":45721000000},{"ticker":"BHP","report_period":"2025-12-31","fiscal_period":"2025-FY","period":"annual","currency":"USD","total_assets":108790000000,"current_assets":22830000000,"cash_and_equivalents":11769000000,"total_liabilities":56572000000,"current_liabilities":15639000000,"total_debt":24496000000,"shareholders_equity":46228000000,"retained_earnings":42670000000},{"ticker":"BHP","report_period":"2024-12-31","fiscal_period":"2024-FY","period":"annual","currency":"USD","total_assets":102362000000,"current_assets":24338000000,"cash_and_equivalents":12389000000,"total_liabilities":53242000000,"current_liabilities":14296000000,"total_debt":20718000000,"shareholders_equity":43374000000,"retained_earnings":39963000000},{"ticker":"BHP","report_period":"2023-12-31","fiscal_period":"2023-FY","period":"annual","currency":"USD","total_assets":101296000000,"current_assets":23351000000,"cash_and_equivalents":12333000000,"total_liabilities":52766000000,"current_liabilities":19043000000,"total_debt":22345000000,"shareholders_equity":43055000000,"retained_earnings":39787000000}],"holders13f":[],"news":[]},"meta":{"version":"v1","asOf":"2026-11-02","builtAt":"2026-11-03T05:33:49.784Z","tier":"free","source":"https://supercyclehq.com/stock/bhp-group","disclaimer":"Informational only, not investment advice.
