LONDON, July 27(Reuters Breakingviews) - The world is getting hotter, but when it comes to achieving net zero investors are cooling.
Glencore (GLEN.L), the $75 billion Swiss group that is one of the world’s biggest coal miners, makes an interesting case study for what’s changed.
Either way, the plan raises the prospect of Glencore bulking up in coal before offloading some or all of the enlarged business.
True, a listing of Glencore’s enlarged coal business might not happen for a few years.
While prices have now more than halved, Glencore‘s coal business would still make $9 billion in EBITDA in 2023 if they averaged $200 a tonne.
