The INR.AX insider tape has been silent for the past 30 days on Form 4. Where executives neither buy nor sell, the bull and bear cases lean harder on filings cadence and the next earnings line.

Quality: ROIC of 18.0% sits 8.0pp above the Basic Materials median (10.0%). Risk: net debt to EBITDA of 2.7x is the rate-sensitivity line to watch, the line to track on ioneer Ltd's next 10-Q.
