Experts have mixed opinions on Hudbay Minerals (HBM-T), reflecting a balance of cautious optimism and concern. Several reviews highlight the company's potential for growth, particularly with its flagship copper concentrate mine in Peru and plans to expand production by 24% in the coming years. However, geopolitical risks, especially in Peru, and the volatility of commodity prices create uncertainty. While some analysts see the company as a solid long-term play in a favorable commodity market, others are wary of potential corrections and recommend watching for price pullbacks before making a significant investment. The stock has performed well recently but is also experiencing caution due to its significant recent gains and the cyclical nature of the sector.

Hudbay Minerals is a producer of zinc and copper. The main focus is on zinc. It has had a run up recently , maybe due to over enthusiasm. Zinc is used for galvanizing and construction and cars. China will need an additional demand for zinc for their cars to fill their new highways. Very positive about zinc. Believes that HBT is a better vehicle.

Mid-cap mining company. Third largest copper and zinc producer. Opening another mine later this year. No material supply coming online until 2008, China tends to be a net inporter, at current rate will deplete all the inventories by around Sept 2006. The company is trading at 2 1/2 to 4 times earnings. Labor unions have contracts until 2011 so the company has a good foundation to grow. The zinc market is volitile so sell on runs. They are currently buying.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Zinc is in short supply and the price of metal keeps going up. It is great for the company. It is up 500-600%, at its peak. It is not a cheap stock. Try to buy 15-20% cheaper.
