Hudbay Minerals (HBM-T) has garnered mixed reviews from experts within the mining and resources sector, with a notable focus on its long-term potential in the copper and gold markets. Several analysts acknowledge the company's aspirations for growth, particularly its plans to increase production by 24% over the coming years and its promising developments in Arizona, specifically the Copper World project. However, there are warnings about the cyclical nature of commodity prices and the risk of potential pullbacks, especially given recent price highs. While there's recognition of the company's sound operational management and solid cash flow, fluctuations in metal stocks and concerns about overvaluation prompt a cautious approach among some experts. Overall, while Hudbay is seen as a significant player with potential upside, market conditions and technical charts suggest careful monitoring is essential.

DML.TO

BUY

There has been strong movement back in the last quarter in terms of all producer prices. Very strong balance sheet and they operate in less politically risky areas. Have been doing a lot of strategic tuck-in acquisitions but you have to have a 3-5 year investment horizon because they will be developing some properties and CapX is going to go up considerably so there could be a period here where earnings are relatively flat.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick June 9/11. Down 44.26%.) Sold his holdings when it looked like they needed more CapX, which would be difficult for them.

DON'T BUY

There is a lot of CapX that the company is going to put into their Peruvian project. Although they have a lot of cash on their balance sheet, cash outlay is going to be significant over the next 2 years. Prefers Lundin Mining (LUN-T).

BUY

Good quality stock. $3 or $4 cash. Likes long-term prospects. Has been adding to resource base, new minds coming on. Will move fast and far when it does.

DON'T BUY

Great balance sheet, half cash. 9 times earnings. Tried to raise money recently on a debt issue so it pulled back. They will have a lot of cap-x on a project coming up. They have to rein in cash.

DON'T BUY

(Market Call Minute) Don’t know where they want to go from here.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick May 16, 2011, Down 42.67%) He switched into Freeport (FCX-N)

TOP PICK

A compelling valuation today. Has a lot of cash on its strong balance sheet. Good potential growth prospects and a good financial base.

WATCH

This is a great entry point level if you didn’t know what was going on in Europe. Great balance sheet, but it will take all their cash to bring the mine on stream. Will add when he is more comfortable with outside risk.

COMMENT

Is this a value play? It depends on if they can build their new mine. Had a high yield bond issue earlier this week. For any mining company, you are digging stuff out of the ground and the value of the company is declining if you don't have a stream of new projects to come through. (See Top Picks.)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick June 9/11. Down 31.52%.) Peru is a jurisdiction for one of their growth projects. Political climate started to change.

HOLD

There is some gold production in the future but at this point in time, who cares. Earnings haven't been bad. Copper production is rising and copper prices are okay. This will languish until the whole mining sector starts to have a bit more oomph. Feels they are a great takeover potential. Have tons of cash in the bank. Have increased their reserves significantly.

HOLD

Has suffered along with all the other base metal producers. Has a good balance sheet and good prospects. (See Top Picks.)

BUY ON WEAKNESS

80% copper and 20% gold, which he likes. On his watch list and he gets pretty interested when it gets under $11 and would buy at under $10.50. Doesn't expect dividend increases for a while. Have a lot of cash but are spending it by bringing a big new mine into production.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick Apr 13/11, Down 24.43%) When they increase production, will get attention.
