Q+A: Can BHP dominate as it shifts from iron ore to copper?

Can BHP continue its dominance as its focus shifts from iron ore to copper? Yesterday, Australia's second largest company announced a 26pc drop in underlying profit, with iron ore prices under pressure from slowing demand in China. It’s BHP’s weakest performance in five years. But the company is still optimistic - particularly about its growing number of copper assets, and also its shift into the fertiliser potash.
