• 10 of the best ASX shares to buy in FY 2027

    Contented looking man leans back in his chair at his desk and smiles.

    A new financial year is here, so what better time to consider making some new additions to your portfolio.

    Listed below are ten ASX shares that I think could be worth buying in FY 2027.

    Breville Group Ltd (ASX: BRG)

    The first ASX share to consider is Breville, which sells premium kitchen appliances across global markets.

    Its coffee machines, cooking products, and food preparation appliances have turned everyday household routines into a strong brand-led growth story. International expansion gives the company a long growth runway.

    Goodman Group (ASX: GMG)

    Goodman owns and develops industrial property across key global markets.

    Its assets are used for logistics, warehousing, ecommerce, and data infrastructure. Demand for well-located industrial space remains strong, and Goodman’s data centre development pipeline gives it room to keep creating value.

    Macquarie Group Ltd (ASX: MQG)

    Macquarie gives investors exposure to global asset management, commodities, markets, banking, and infrastructure-related finance.

    Its earnings can move around from year to year, but this ASX share has a strong record of finding opportunities across market cycles.

    Megaport Ltd (ASX: MP1)

    Megaport provides flexible digital infrastructure through cloud connectivity and its move into compute.

    Its Latitude.sh acquisition has broadened the story beyond network-as-a-service. Contract wins in this newer area suggest the ASX share could be building a larger opportunity.

    Netwealth Group Ltd (ASX: NWL)

    Netwealth operates an investment platform used by financial advisers and wealth professionals.

    It has benefited from demand for better technology, reporting, and administration in wealth management. Australia’s growing retirement savings pool gives the business a powerful long-term tailwind.

    Pro Medicus Ltd (ASX: PME)

    Another ASX share to consider is Pro Medicus. It develops medical imaging software for hospitals and radiology groups.

    Pro Medicus’ Visage platform helps clinicians handle large imaging files quickly across complex healthcare networks. Major contract wins in the United States show the strength of its product and long-term opportunity.

    ResMed Inc (ASX: RMD)

    ResMed is a global leader in sleep apnoea treatment and connected respiratory care.

    Its devices, masks, software, and support services help patients manage long-term breathing conditions. With many sufferers still undiagnosed, the company has a large market opportunity ahead.

    TechnologyOne Ltd (ASX: TNE)

    TechnologyOne provides enterprise software for governments, universities, and large organisations.

    Its software is used for finance, payroll, planning, and administration. The shift to software-as-a-service has strengthened its annual recurring revenue base and could support many more years of growth.

    Wesfarmers Ltd (ASX: WES)

    Wesfarmers owns a collection of high-quality businesses, including Bunnings, Kmart, Officeworks, and industrial operations.

    The company has a long record of disciplined capital allocation. That mix of retail strength, portfolio flexibility, and management quality makes it a dependable blue-chip candidate.

    Xero Ltd (ASX: XRO)

    Finally, Xero could be an ASX share to buy in FY 2027. It provides cloud accounting software for small businesses and advisers.

    The company’s platform helps with invoicing, payroll, bank feeds, reporting, and compliance. The company could keep growing as small businesses move more of their financial admin into digital systems.

  • Three ASX 200 companies Macquarie says are a buy right now

    A woman in a red dress holding up a red graph.

    When it comes to picking stocks that might have some serious upside, it pays to ask the professionals.

    I’ve had a look through the broker reports that came out this week and have selected three ASX 200 companies that the analyst team at Macquarie thinks will do well going forward. 

    Let’s see what they’re saying.

    Santos Ltd (ASX: STO)

    This oil and gas major recently announced it had hit continuous production at its Pikka oil project in Alaska, which was a major milestone for the company. 

    The project is now producing about 20,000 barrels of oil per day, which will ramp up to 80,000 during the third quarter of 2026.

    Santos Managing Director Kevin Gallagher said regarding the project:

    Pikka is a high-quality, low-cost oil development with strong economics and long reserves life benefiting not only Santos and its joint venture partner Repsol, but also key stakeholders, including the State of Alaska and Alaska Native Corporations. The project is set to generate robust cash flows and support strong shareholder returns over the coming years.

    Macquarie said in this week’s note to clients that Santos had “solid sequential growth” in its second-quarter production. 

    They added:

    Currently, we view STO as tracking to the lower end of its CY26 guidance range, due to the longer asset commissioning/ramp times than expected when the guide was set.

    They also added that due to relative share price weakness, Santos may yet again be in the sights of acquirers.

    Macquarie has a price target of $9 on Santos shares compared to $7.07 at the time of writing.  

    Pexa Ltd (ASX: PXA)

    Shares in this property settlements technology company are down about 16% over a 12-month period, but the Macquarie team believes there is significant upside.

    Macquarie said property settlements in New South Wales improved by 3.1% in June compared with the previous corresponding period, after a weak May.

    Macquarie boosted its price target on the company to $19.30 from $19.05, compared with $10.87 at the time of writing.

    The broker added, “formal commitment from additional Tier-1 lenders is likely to incentivise the other Tier-1 lenders to onboard with PXA quickly, driving rapid market share gains”.  

    Aristocrat Leisure Ltd (ASX: ALL)

    A recent investor day from this company “illustrated Aristocrat’s dominant cross-channel position, and enterprise-wide approach to game development, which improves commercialisation of its market leading content”.

    Macquarie said it saw market-share opportunities for Aristocrat in land-based gaming, but was more wary of the company’s Product Madness mobile gaming division. 

    The broker said Aristocrat was well-placed to deliver 10% to 15% earnings per share growth.

    They also said the company would benefit from AI, with the benefits including “creativity enhancements, improved velocity to market, and advancing data analytics”.

    Macquarie has a price target of $65 on Aristocrat shares compared to $61.38 at the time of writing.

  • 5 best ASX 200 mining shares of FY26

    Three satisfied miners with their arms crossed looking at the camera proudly.

    S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) mining shares experienced an outstanding year in FY26.

    The ASX 200 materials sector, which is dominated by miners, was the best-performing of the 11 market sectors, rising 47% and offering a 4.6% dividend yield.  

    The S&P/ASX 300 Metals & Mining Index (ASX: XMM), which captures more of the mineral explorers than the ASX 200, did even better.  

    ASX 300 mining shares rose 53.2%, and delivered total returns of 58.59%. Wow. 

    This all happened because Australia is in the midst of a new mining boom that will be different to the last one in the early 2000s to 2013.  

    That boom was characterised by insatiable Chinese demand for iron ore to create steel for new infrastructure and residential apartments in the cities. 

    The new mining boom today is being driven by the green energy transition, the artificial intelligence (AI) build-out, and central bank purchasing of gold. 

    The green energy transition and AI build-out are driving much higher demand for critical minerals, such as lithium, and base metals, such as copper. 

    Lithium prices slumped in 2023-2025 due to global oversupply, but supply/demand finally rebalanced at the start of FY26.  

    Lithium went on to top the charts of best-performing commodities in FY26 by a long way.

    The lithium spodumene price rose about 280%, and carbonate soared 160%. 

    So, it’s no surprise to see four lithium producers among the top five ASX 200 mining shares for capital growth last year. 

    Let’s review. 

    1. Minerals 260 Ltd (ASX: MI6)

    ASX 200 gold share, Minerals 260, skyrocketed 508% to close out FY26 at 73 cents per share. 

    The mineral explorer is building the Bullabulling Gold Project in Western Australia’s Eastern Goldfields region. 

    Bullabulling is one of Australia’s largest near-term gold mines with a Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) of 130MT at 1.0g/t for 4.5Moz.  

    Minerals 260 recently signed a $220 million funding deal with gold royalty company, Franco-Nevada Corporation, to advance and de-risk Bullabulling. 

    2. Elevra Lithium Ltd (ASX: ELV)

    This ASX 200 lithium share roared 327% higher to $9.60 apiece in FY26.

    Elevra has a globally diversified portfolio of mines and development projects across Québec, North Carolina, Ghana, and Western Australia.

    Formed through the merger of Piedmont Lithium and Sayona Mining, Elevra’s flagship mine is the North American Lithium Project. 

    3. PLS Group Ltd (ASX: PLS)

    Formerly known as Pilbara Minerals, PLS Group shares rocketed 275% to close out FY26 at $5.02. 

    PLS Group is the largest lithium miner on the ASX 200 by market capitalisation. 

    The company’s flagship is the Pilgangoora Operation, the world’s largest independent hard-rock lithium mine. 

    4. Mineral Resources Ltd (ASX: MIN)

    Iron ore and lithium producer Mineral Resources experienced 188% share price growth in FY26. 

    The Mineral Resources share price finished the year at $62.65.

    Mineral Resources shares were in rebound mode in FY26 after serious corporate governance issues and financial concerns had plagued the company in FY25. 

    Founder Chris Ellison faced board-imposed financial penalties of $8.8 million and loss of remuneration of up to $9.6 million for reputational damage to the company.

    The need to strengthen the balance sheet contributed to the board’s call not to pay dividends in FY25. No dividends have been paid in FY26, either. 

    The Mineral Resources share price hit a 5-year low of $14.05 in April 2025 before commencing its rebound into FY26. 

    For 1H FY26, Mineral Resources reported its strongest half-year result ever. The miner reported record revenue of $3.1 billion and EBITDA of $1.2 billion.

    Rebounding lithium prices and the successful ramp-up of the Onslow iron ore project contributed to the result. 

    5. Liontown Ltd (ASX: LTR)

    The Liontown share price leapt 197% higher to finish the year at $1.58.

    Liontown owns one of Australia’s newest lithium operations, the Kathleen Valley Project, which only began production in early FY25. 

    The ASX 200 lithium share had the same commodity tailwinds as other providers last year, as the company sought to ramp up production. 

    For 1H FY26, Liontown reported a doubling in revenue year over year to $207.5 million, after a 70% lift in spodumene production. 

    In 3Q FY26, Liontown became cash flow positive and achieved its 1.5Mtpa annualised underground run-rate ahead of schedule.
