Get ready, get set.
Next week is a big one for earnings season with some of Australia's largest and most economically significant companies reporting their latest results to the market.
Of course, we're talking about the big three ASX 200 iron ore mining shares of BHP Group Limited (ASX: BHP), Fortescue Ltd (ASX: FMG), and Rio Tinto Limited (ASX: RIO).
But we'll also hear from diversified iron ore/lithium miner, Mineral Resources Limited (ASX: MIN), lithium pure-play Pilbara Minerals Limited (ASX: PLS), and lithium/nickel miner IGO Limited (ASX: IGO)
Mining is one of Australia's critical industries. Tax receipts from the miners have a significant impact on the federal budget and fund much of the government services we all enjoy.
So, the numbers we get from the biggest players in the mining sector next week will have ramifications not only for their share prices but likely also for the broader economic outlook.
Most importantly, we'll get a real-time insight into how China's weak economy is impacting demand for our metals and minerals.
Let's check out the schedule for next week.
