Highlights

Fortescue Metals Group sees a 33.8% drop in share price since 2024.

ASX Ltd share price is 22.2% off its 52-week lows.

FMG focuses on both iron ore production and expanding into renewable energy resources.

Fortescue Metals Group, a major iron ore producer based in Perth, Western Australia, has seen a notable decline in its share price, down 33.8% since the beginning of 2024. The company operates in the Pilbara region, shipping more than 190 million tonnes of iron ore annually. Established in 2003, Fortescue has also broadened its exploration activities beyond iron ore, with a focus on materials like copper, lithium, and rare earth elements across regions including Australia, Argentina, Chile, Brazil, and Kazakhstan.

This strategy aligns with the growing demand for materials essential for renewable energy technologies. As industries shift toward clean energy, Fortescue is positioning itself to capitalize on the rising need for these materials.

ASX Limited is Australia's main national securities exchange, providing services across securities trading, derivatives, and central counterparty clearing. The company's offerings span a wide range of products, including shares, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), real estate investment trusts (REITs), and managed funds.

Fortescue Metals Group (ASX:FMG) Share Price Considerations

Fortescue Metals Group's dividend yield is currently around 10.08%, which is slightly below its 5-year average of 10.52%. This could be due to a number of factors, including changes in dividends or share price movement. The company has maintained strong dividend growth, with last year’s dividends surpassing the three-year average, which reflects solid financial management amid fluctuating market conditions.

Both FMG and ASX Ltd remain key players in their respective sectors, each with a unique trajectory as they navigate market challenges.
