I am concluding my research on the forest industry with the iShares Global Timber & Forestry ETF. The companies I have previously covered account for ~25% of WOOD's 225.6 million AUM. The Invesco MSCI Global Timber ETF is WOOD's closest competitor, with a $41.2 million AUM. Smaller size is synonymous with thinner liquidity, as reflected by a higher median bid-ask spread. Despite lower liquidity, CUT's total expense ratio of 1.02% is ~2.5x higher than WOOD's 0.40%. Considering their highly similar portfolios, it is difficult to justify such a spread.

A London judge ruled Friday that global mining company BHP Group is liable in Brazil's worst environmental disaster when a dam collapse a decade ago unleashed tons of toxic waste into a major river, killing 19 people and devastating villages downstream.High Court Justice Finola O'Farrell said that Australia-based BHP was responsible, despite not owning the dam at the time, finding its negligence, carelessness or lack of skill led to the collapse.Anglo-Australian BHP owns 50% of Samarco, the Brazilian company that operates the iron ore mine where the tailings dam ruptured on Nov. 5, 2015.Sludge from the burst dam destroyed the once-bustling village of Bento Rodrigues in Minas Gerais state and badly damaged other towns. Enough mine waste to fill 13,000 Olympic-size swimming pools poured into the Doce River in southeastern Brazil, damaging 600 kilometers (370 miles) of the waterway and killing 14 tons of freshwater fish, according to a study by the University of Ulster in the U.K. The river, which the Krenak Indigenous people revere as a deity, has yet to recover.A decade later, legal disputes have prolonged reconstruction and reparations and the river is still contaminated with heavy metals.
