COMMENT
Has done extremely well. In a sweet spot, because it's a major producer of zinc. You have to be careful as a lot of the value is tied up in only one mine that has a long life. Also do their own smelting and have to buy product at current prices.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Main product is zinc. Zinc is at an all-time high so it is reflected in the stock price. If you are buying for the long-term, wait for a price correction.
BUY
World shortage in zinc and cannot be easily made up. Hud Bay (HBM-T), Eurozinc (EZM-T) and Inmet (IMN-T) have tremendous leverage to base metals. The demand for raw materials coming out of emerging-markets is astonishing.
HOLD
Has a target of about $24. Huge earnings on a small balance sheet, so it is growing over time. Would buy more at $13.85. If it got close to $24, he would sell.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Technically, it is looking very, very strong. It recently broke into a new high. The buying point occurred about a month ago.
BUY
If there is a slowdown in the US, the base metal companies will all get hurt. There are relatively few base metal companies left, so expect there will be mergers and acquisitions.
BUY
Has a lot more upside. Traditional time frame is to buy around now and hold into the 1st quarter.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Technically, the structure is very, very nice. It is making an ascending triangle. Typically when you see support at higher levels, and you take out the resistance, there is a lot of upside. A little overbought, so not an ideal situation right now.
WAIT
Would like to see the stock go sideways for a while. Relatively limited in that it is a one-mine company. Will benefit now that some of the big cap companies are gone.
HOLD
There is speculation that they may merge or be taken over. He likes this company. Hold if you own. Watch if you are considering buying.
BUY
A fascinating revival company. A great buy. Zinc is extremely short.
HOLD
It is of the size where it could be a takeover target. There may still be a little bit of weakness going through the fall period.
COMMENT
Metals are holding up, but drifting down to a technical point where they had better hold. 2 tightest metals are zinc and nickel so they are in a good position. If metals stays up then it's a good play, but it metals drop he wouldn't want to be near it.
BUY
Believes in the long-term metal price cycle. Very cheap. Once we get over this period of weakness, these intermediate producers will be takeout or merger candidates. There could be some rocky times in the short term. For a 3/4-year period, this is a buy.
TOP PICK
(A Top Pick June 14/06. Up 12.5%.) Trades around 4 X cash flow. Feels that Teck (TCK.B-T) and this company should get together. Good price.
