Anglo American is a large British mining company that digs up and sells raw materials used in everyday products. Its main commodities include copper (used in electronics and electric vehicles), platinum group metals (used in car catalytic converters and jewelry), iron ore, and diamonds through its majority stake in De Beers. It sells these materials to manufacturers, automakers, and industrial buyers around the world.

The company earns money by mining and selling these commodities, so its revenue rises and falls with global commodity prices — something it cannot control. Anglo American operates across South America, southern Africa, and Australia, making it one of the largest diversified miners in the world. The company has been restructuring recently, including exploring a sale or spin-off of De Beers and other assets, to focus more on copper, which is in high demand due to the global energy transition. A prolonged drop in copper or platinum prices remains its biggest near-term risk.

Growth + cash flow

Anglo American is a rare growth stock that's already generating positive cash flow while growing at 11%. The Winston Score doesn't fully credit this transition from "burner" to "earner."

The Winston Score above measures business quality today. Growth stocks often score lower because they invest in the future rather than maximising current profits. These metrics show what matters most for evaluating that future.
