How BHP grew 11% a year for 76 years

It delivered a 262,000% share price growth over 76 years – or an impressive 11% a year compounded – even before accounting for dividends paid since at least 1980. Can you guess which ASX heavyweight it is?

It’s none other than BHP, the mining giant that brought Australian earth to the global stage.

BHP began in 1885 with a single mining claim in the Australian Outback. How did that alone lead to what it is today?

Here are the superpowers we’ll uncover:

• The origin of BHP: From a dusty mining town to a A$215 billion empire
• The innovations that put BHP at the forefront of mining
• The strategic moves it made to get to and remain at the top
• How cost advantages and resource acquisition have helped BHP maintain dominance
• How the future is looking for BHP amidst the global movement towards decarbonisation, renewable energy and green metals 
• The key takeaways for investors: The power of patience, compounding and strategic resource investments
