  • ASX Shares Hit 52-Week Highs: Buy, Hold, or Sell?
    May 25, 2026, 4:44 PM EDT. The S&P/ASX 200 index saw notable gains with shares of Mineral Resources Ltd, Korvest Ltd, and Sims Ltd hitting fresh 52-week highs. Mineral Resources surged nearly 3% as improved lithium demand drives its 200% yearly gain, though experts say current valuations around $71 may be fully priced. Korvest, benefiting from Australia's infrastructure and energy-transition spending, rose 1.5% but shows limited upside with price targets near current levels. Sims, a leader in metal and electronics recycling, up 61% in 12 months, could be a buy due to strong earnings momentum and demand from electric vehicle and renewable energy sectors. Analysts highlight cautious optimism amid varied growth prospects across these stocks.
