Took advantage of the selloff to bring my $ARG position to 1,988 shares at an average cost of $8.43 ππ» This copper producer had a strong balance sheet and friendly shareholder return policy. Any cash deemed surplus above a defined threshold is βskimmed offβ in the form of Performance Dividends on what appears to be on a quarterly basis. Unlike many copper producers or developers, they are not saddled with high CAPEX demands. In 2026, 3 Performance Dividends were declared. The latest & largest will be paid Oct 14 for 0.21/share. π₯π₯That brings the PDs to 0.55/share. The regular Quarterly Dividend is 0.02/share or 0.16 annually. Their model reminds me of the old $TOU Tourmaline Oil Variable Dividend Model ππ» However, copper prices are holding up very well compared to NatGas π«ͺπ«ͺπ΅βπ«π΅βπ« If you believe copper demand will continue with looming shortages in the next few years, this may be a less volatile way to invest in the space. You get a nice return while you wait for further capital appreciation ππ» With a share price of 8.19, the yield is 8.67% based on the PDs and Quarterlies π. Hence you get income and opportunities to participate in future growth This is my way of dipping my toe into the Copper waters. Anyone else liking the CU space?
