Your figures are wrong.

Earnings per share last year were 225.4 for instance.

Incorrect.
I tend to work from the US ADR figures, as I have more data.
The above figures would need to be adjusted for ASX.

So your numbers are per share or per ADR?

Where the figures read EPS read per ADR
All other figures are not "per share/ADR" therefore read as are.

It doesn't make too much sense then because I can see in the adr.com website that the EPS for 2005 is 2.08 and for 2006 3.45.

Can you please clarify your numbers?

In free fall now. Doesn't look to be much from stopping this one getting to $22.

March copper just dipped below $2.50 too
 
Commodity prices are heading south again today and warehouse stocks are up.

Copper -2.16%
Zinc -3.73%

So if they stay there BHP will probably touch 23.4 tomorrow.

If BHP reaches below 23.50, IMO any thoughts of a recovery are off. Certainly at the moment, the chart points to it reaching this level....

U have to laugh at investors getting in on BHP now though..... no1 stock bought on Comsec today...... like lambs to a slaughter...... certainly not a stock I would be looking to go long in at the moment.....

copper is up 2.5%
 
Has bounced off the $24.00 mark for the minute, but it's a long way to recovery IMO. This might be just technical buying, with hardly a change in prices, inventories up, oil off...

Just wondering where everyone gets their commodity prices from. According to commsec copper was down 4.3% last night. Attached is the rest of the prices they quote for today. Judging by the prices quoted on Comsec you would expect resources to be down today. Are Comsec a day behind?

In nothing more than a punt, I took a short position at close today. Hope it doesn't hurt too much!

Enjoy reading fundamentals contributions (kennas, ducati et al), your knowledge helps others of us grow-cheers,

You may be right, a short position could be the go. Plenty of profits up for grabs tomorrow.

BHP offers more than copper though, maybe some good news about the olympic damn, could get things cranking.

Either way I wouldnt take the punt just yet.

Going short on BHP now is probably not the smartest move. Its still got a lot of lost ground to cover.
 
If you do fundamental analysis BHP is way over price even at $24 a pop. (feel sorry for guys who bought them at $32, they wont see BHP near that price range for a while.)

I reckon they close to peak earning or already there and there isn't much growth left in this company.

Look for the next BHP
 
ROE, the fundmentals are that they are halfway through a share buy-back.

Towards the latter half of this buy-back I think some positive news will come.

To take a SHORT entry, you have to try and look at the chart kennas posted, and look to go short circa $26.50, near the top band of the Bollinger.
Currently, as indicated by the same chart $24 is a major psychological support point [it has zero fundamental significance] from the May correction.
