Average sector stock returns 3-4x from current levels
Stimulating greed in cyclicals post the mid way point, can be destabilising to rational thought and action as the cliff is approaching....anchor oneself in reality, scale down post $70 spot for 70% of investors is the best action.
Is a 2-3x PE cheap for #coal company given extraordinary high spot prices?
The answer is ofcourse no, perhaps 2 upside remains.
Variables to consider:
Low cost producer, still profitable as cycle lows, what's mid cycle CF multiple?
Are volumes expanding?
Is the share count reducing due to stock buy backs?
Using a price to book ratio, is it trading near an historic High?
How much super normal cashflow will be collected, prior to the cycle drop off?
Does the current PE drop to 8-10x using midcycle assumptions?
Whats the debt level?
A combination that could produce a 3-4x return from here:
- 50% sustainable increase in volumes over 2022 as low cost
- a net cash balance sheet allowing 20% of shares to be repurchased over 18 months
- 1st quartile cost producer, always profitable through the cycle
