Deloitte Western Australia Index 2022

Diggers and Dealers Special Edition

Welcome to the 2022 Diggers & Dealers special edition of the Deloitte WA Index. This year the market capitalisation of Western Australian listed entities closed at A$299.6 billion, up 2% for the year. A raft of significant world events has brought about marked volatility during 2022, but the WA Index has fared exceptionally well, as the majority of global indices lost ground.

 

Traditional energy commodities were among the top price movers for the year while the thirst for lithium globally continued with a monumental jump of 592% as the hunger for EV batteries remains insatiable.

Also for the first time in a decade, the spotlight shines bright on Woodside Energy Group, regaining the top spot as WA’s largest listed company. Completing the acquisition of BHP’s petroleum assets added approximately $27 billion of value to its market capitalisation.
