Hudbay Minerals (HBM) has received a mix of insights from various experts, highlighting a generally positive outlook on copper demand and the company's potential growth. Many experts note the strong fundamentals supporting copper prices due to ongoing demand, particularly from China, and the limited new production sources. Despite the bullish sentiment, concerns about geopolitical risks in Peru and fluctuations in the market over the short-term were mentioned. Several analysts appreciate the company's strategic moves in Arizona and its ability to expand production and extend mine life, while cautioning potential investors to be aware of the cyclical nature of commodities and recent price gains that could see a pullback. Overall, the reviews portray Hudbay Minerals as a solid long-term investment opportunity in a promising resource cycle, albeit one that requires careful timing for entry or rebalancing in a portfolio.

PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Apr 13/11, Down 24.43%) When they increase production, will get attention.
COMMENT
Have a lot of respect for the company and their resource. He is nervous about base metal pricing in the next couple of years. He is suspicious that some of the economic revival we have seen is a consequence more of counterfeit (quantitative easing) then real economic strength. Probably a pretty good name if you are thinking of holding it for 10 years.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Feb 3/11. Down 27.13%.) A copper/zinc story with a gold lining. They're going to move from 100,000 ounces of gold a year to about 250,000. There just isn't a lot of news as they develop their mine in Peru and northern Manitoba. Still likes.
BUY
Doesn’t like it fundamentally, but it looks good technically. It has shown a buy signal recently. It will pause at the $13 level. It has many days of large daily moves so you will see a little tailing off of the buying, but $11.50 might be a buying point. If it goes down to $11 you want to exit and that might be a stop loss.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Copper is at 17 week high and some of these stocks are starting to move. Chart shows a downtrend starting in late 2010 and broken in late 2011. Now we are hoping for a successive set of new lows. He expects some kind of a minor pullback. If it pulled back into the $9 range, he would load up. Good space to be in.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Dec 31/10, Down 41.49%) Company is going through a massive change. Building a new mine which will be an important mine. Doing a big project in Peru (politics affected investor sentiment). Almost $5 of cash per share. Thinks it will climb back up bit will take some time to get there.
DON'T BUY
Only base metal company he owns. Likes this one the most if there is going to be a bounce in copper. Has a half position, which he can always add to when it pulls back. Still a couple of questions. They are building mines and it is the CapX around the mine and how you finance.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
The downward trend has been broken but it looks like it wants to revisit the October low. We are coming to the seasonal strong time for the sector. The risk reward is really good.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 11/10. Down 39.62%.) Still loves this one. Doing very well. Have a new mine coming on next year. Doesn't see any catalysts in the next 2 quarters. $800 million plus in the bank. Expect they will be back in the $20’s before too long.
WAIT
Did analysis and liked what he saw. Their production in Flinflon did not come on and he will look at it again in 2012. Well run, good assets but a little early for him.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 4/10. Down 33.03%.) Fears on base metals has been misplaced on this company. Produces 100,000 ounces of gold annually. Ramping up with their new mine to 250,000 ounces. Screaming bargain.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 4/10. Down 33.03%.) Fears on base metals has been misplaced on this company. Produces 100,000 ounces of gold annually. Ramping up with their new mine to 250,000 ounces. Screaming bargain.
HOLD
Generally a name he likes. New CEO has done a good job of focusing the company. Increasing revenue from copper. Lots of cash. But stock has gone sideways and will continue. Good defensive name.
TOP PICK
Copper. Have a couple of growth projects in Canada as well as one in Peru. Looks like they could have $1-$2 billion in gold assets that they could spin out. Price could drop below $10, which would be uncomfortable, but would give him an advantage to buy more.
DON'T BUY
The metals producers are really out of favour. Severely under performed the market along with all metal producers. An area to avoid.
