As the chief executive officer of Laidlaw & Company Ltd., Matt Eitner is part of a team that facilitates investments in various industries, ranging from healthcare to natural resources. Matt Eitner occasionally looks to the natural resources market for investment opportunities.
At the moment, the natural resources market is particularly ripe for ventures due to current socioeconomic and financial trends. The natural resources market encompasses a vast number of products, ranging from raw materials that are mined, cut, or collected from the earth to agricultural output like commercial crops. Historically, natural resources have performed well on the stock market. And because of the number of emerging economies, there is a current demand for natural resources needed for construction.
Natural resources such as coal, lumber, and precious metals are all currently popular investments because of the growth of emerging economies and the need to develop infrastructure in these countries. These developing countries also have a constant need for materials such as gravel, steel, and other building materials to maintain current infrastructure. In addition to private industry, the governments of these emerging economies are also purchasing natural resources, making them a good investment strategy. In 2018, specific industries such as oil and gas generated close to $90 billion, while the mining and metals industries generated $2.5 billion.
