Investors asked to name ASX 200 stocks winning during the Iran war would likely think of oil and gas stocks, benefiting from soaring prices. This is not incorrect - oil stocks like Woodside, Santos and Karoon have grabbed the headlines as the obvious beneficiaries of the US-Iran conflict that erupted in late February 2026.
However, they'd…
Despite the dour state of the markets right now, it could be time for certain ASX stocks that should be merged or be acquired to go ahead. With private equity sitting on nearly USD$440bn in uncommitted capital, a more permissive regulatory environment for smaller deal-making, and a wave of ASX small and mid-caps trading at…
Woodside Energy Group (ASX: WDS) is nearing first LNG from Scarborough, has just taken operational control of the Beaumont New Ammonia plant in Texas, and is still funding a multi-year slate of major projects.
That mix explains the tension in the stock. The underlying asset base is large, cash-generative and long-life, but the near-term reality is…
Indium Signs On, the Commercial Loop Just Closed
Metallium has signed a 10-year supply offtake agreement with Indium Corporation. An offtake agreement is a pre-agreed sales contract, so Metallium has now locked in a committed buyer for its recovered metals.

That upgrade, announced in October, was the clearest signal…
Barossa has now shipped its first LNG cargo through Darwin LNG, Pikka phase 1 is nearing first oil, and Santos (ASX: STO) has just approved a Cooper Basin optimisation project aimed at cutting costs and extending field life.
That is the attraction. The tension is that energy prices remain cyclical, major projects still need to ramp…
Rio Tinto (ASX: RIO) enters 2026 with two opposing forces in plain sight: the Pilbara iron ore machine is still generating the bulk of cash, but the company is spending heavily to build a broader future through Oyu Tolgoi, Simandou and lithium. That tension matters because investors are trying to judge whether current cyclical pressure…
NEXTDC (ASX: NXT) has moved sharply higher after a run of announcements that changed how much future capacity investors can reasonably expect the company to monetise.
The biggest trigger was the 25 February 2026 half-year result, when contracted utilisation jumped 137% to 416.6MW and the forward order book reached 296.8MW, with that capacity expected to convert…
