ASX Top 200 Stocks Down Under 22 August 2022: Aurizon (ASX:AZJ)

Aurizon: Who said coal was out of vogue?

benefited from higher coal prices. But remember, Aurizon isn’t a coal company, it’s a rail freight operator
with significant exposure to coal. The pivot to value stocks has played well into the hands of infrastructure
operators like Aurizon. And even though coal will eventually be phased out, it will be more gradual and Aurizon
is pivoting well ahead of time.
