How it trades on rate days beta 0.81 to TLT · on the worst bond days it fell more than the market

How it trades on rate days

How BHP has moved when long-dated Treasury yields rise — measured against TLT, the 20+ year Treasury fund.

  • Beta to long bonds, 1 year 0.81 — moves strongly with bonds for every 1% move in TLT (20+ year Treasuries), BHP Group Limited moved 0.81% on average · correlation 0.22 · higher than 78% of US names
  • Beta, last 3 months 1.02 more rate-sensitive lately than over the year
  • On the 10 worst bond days −1.61% on average against −0.74% for the S&P 500 the 10 sessions of the past year in which TLT fell most, i.e. long yields rose most
  • Latest of those days +0.16% TLT −1.29% that day 2026-09-24

Daily total returns from the adjusted price series; a TLT down day is a day long yields rose. Beta = the average move of the name for a 1% move in TLT. Past sensitivity, not a forecast. An investment diary, not a recommendation.

Company snapshot — BHP Group Limited

BHP in five paragraphs: what it makes and sells, where it sits in the Closelooknet stack, who it is priced against, why we track it, what we watch. Research diary, not advice.

What it does
BHP mines and processes metals and minerals worldwide, organised into three segments: Copper, Iron Ore and Coal. It also explores for nickel, potash, uranium, silver, gold and other deposits, and runs related marketing, trading and finance businesses. The company is based in Melbourne, Australia, and lists among the largest diversified miners globally.
Where it sits in the stack
BHP holds no seat in our index and carries no Rubin or Halo layer; it belongs to the diary's Basic Materials sector, sitting outside the AI build-out stack among diversified mining majors rather than any semiconductor or infrastructure sleeve.
Who it is priced against
Closelooknet's peer group for BHP draws on scored Basic Materials names based in the same country, mostly gold miners such as Barrick Mining, Agnico Eagle and Kinross Gold; the market's usual comparison, Rio Tinto, sits alongside it as the other diversified major.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
BHP carries a Closelooknet score, strongest on the quality module and weakest on momentum. The diary has quoted it twice, once in a Daily Pulse piece comparing diversified majors against Vale, and once in a Midday 10 edition.
What the diary watches
Whether the gap between its quality score and its weaker momentum reading narrows as iron ore and copper price moves feed through to the chart.
