...and yet the fundamentals and market forces for coal give and even bullish picture going forward.
If somehow is to early to compare peers with TGA, the bullishness of coal to other commodities is quite interesting.
There are some factors including policies and perceptions that make this market quite unique and unpredictable. Till yesterday coal miners were doom and gloom, possibly still a perception attached to them by analysts and investors, but i reed that coal is never be more needed than now. If is true that in the end market forces are dictating policies direction and choices, well then we need coal price at $500/t to speed up the green revolution. I have just subscribed for a monthly donation towards carbon capture tech. I am buying 220Kg of CO2 to be captured from the environment a drop in the ocean compared to what is needed to slow down climate change. Yet policies and politics are pushing in two different directions, by phasing out coal mining and at the same time consuming more coal then before. There will pass many decades if and when eventually humanity will have global warming under control and the cost to get there and loss of revenue from some countries producing coal or fossil fuel is unimaginable. To note for what is worth is that Brent since bottoming in April 2020 has risen more than coal, again high cola price is a good thing and possibly the only solution to global warming.
