BHP says will not spend $80 bln on expansion projects 16 May 2012 05:26, updated 16 May 2012 05:37 SYDNEY, May 16 (Reuters) – BHP Billiton BHP Billiton plc will not be spending $80 billion on expansion projects over the next five years, Chairman Jac Nasser said on Wednesday. Nasser told reporters the expansion figure given by CEO Marius Kloppers last year was the total of all projects the company was considering and that the environment had changed since then. The company was thinking about its expansion plans "every day", he said. Asked if BHP would spend $80 billion over five years, Nasser said: "No."
UPDATE 1-BHP chairman sees commodity markets cooling further 16 May 2012 05:35, updated 16 May 2012 05:36 Tail winds of high commodity prices easing - Nasser Uncertainty about Australia tax weighing on investors Restrictive labour regs hurdle to business in Australia Shares down 3.6 pct at near three-yr low SYDNEY, May 16 (Reuters) – BHP Billiton BHP Billiton plc, the world's biggest miner, said it expects commodity markets to cool further and that investors had lost confidence in the longer-term health of the global economy. The Reuters-Jefferies CRB index , a closely followed indicator for commodities, has slid more than 11 percent since hitting a five-month peak in late February amid a broader sell-off in financial markets driven by concerns about the European debt crisis. "The tail winds of high commodity prices have contributed to record growth in the sector. Now we have a period where those tail winds are moderating and we expect further easing over time," Chairman Jacques Nasser said in a speech to a business lunch in Sydney. The sell-off has not yet knocked the confidence or spending plans of BHP, which is less than one year into a five-year $80 billion expenditure program to beef up its iron ore, coal, energy and base metals divisions. Nasser said Australia, where BHP has the bulk of its iron ore and coal operations, was becoming one of the higher costs countries in the world to do business. Australia's policies on industrial relations and tax needed to support investment, he said. "What we have in Australia is not a perfect system and on a global basis we are at the upper end of overall taxation levels. That means we are not competitive – however what matters more at this point in time is stability. "If Australia doesn't get both of these policy levers right – industrial relations and taxation – we will not drive improvements in economic prosperity that we should expect of our country." Shares in BHP fell 3.6 percent on Wednesday, the lowest since July 2009. The broader market was down 2.2 percent. In March, BHP said it saw signs of flattening in demand for iron ore from China, but remained upbeat on the long-term demand outlook. Much of BHP's earnings hinges on demand growth in China, the biggest importer of iron ore, copper, nickel and other industrial staples needed to support mass urbanization underway in the world's No. 2 economy.

"The tail winds of high commodity prices have contributed to record growth in the sector and the country. Now we have a period where those tail winds are moderating and we expect further easing over time," Nasser said in a speech to a business lunch in Sydney.
How many shares announce oil and gas find then drops 40% of SP over the next 3 months?
cheers, its all looking good and personally think this is going to go back to the old level of £1.80
They need to get rid of their Argos stores. Tanking big time now, panic set in and people are selling to prevent bigger losses. Must of been a few years ago they hit 18p. IG charts only go back to 2006. GL
L2 and can say whats going on here? Seems to be double the amount of sells to buys, price goes up and I have to phone if I want to trade here.
69.4p is the previous low for this share. If it breaks that which I'd imagine it will then it will be on a continual drop. Don't believe HOME is safe, it is far from safe. Be very wary about buying in at a lower price as yes this does have the potential of being another Woolworths. GL
69p on its way this week now.
UPDATE 1-TUI Travel sees good summer despite French weakness 08 May 2012 07:39 H1 operating loss 317 mln stg vs 307 mln stg H1 revenue 5.4 bln stg vs 5.2 bln stg (Adds details) LONDON, May 8 (Reuters) – TUI Travel, the world's biggest tour operator, said it was on track to meet expectations for the full-year and that it expects to deliver a strong performance in its key summer trading period. The group, which owns Thomson and First Choice, on Tuesday said it made an underlying operating loss of 317 million pounds ($512.95 million) in the six months to the end of March, compared with a 307 million pound loss in the 2010/11 period. Tour operators traditionally make a loss in the first half of the year, which does not include the key summer period. TUI Travel, whose first half revenues rose 5 percent to 5.44 billion pounds, said overall trading for summer 2012 was good with booking volumes well ahead of last year. "We have seen improved summer 2012 trading performance in all other mainstream markets except France which remains difficult," TUI Travel Chief Executive Peter Long said. "Given the challenging economic environment, we remain cautious, however, overall trading performance continues to be in line with the board's expectations." TUI Travel has benefited from difficulties experienced by main rival Thomas Cook, which issued a string of profit warnings last year before securing a three-year funding lifeline worth 1.4 billion pounds last week. ...
