Teck Resources Ltd. (B) (TECK.B.TO)

When looking at Canadian blue chip natural resources, this is about as good as it gets. With the selloff in resources over the last 18 months, this got pretty beaten up but over the last 3-4 months it has had a pretty good rally. Thinks the strength in the cyclicals will hold for a couple of more months but you should look to harvest over the next while.

Bottomed at $28 range and now $37. Still has a lot more room to appreciate if we continue to see improvement in China, Buy on pullbacks or as we get more improvement in China.

Quite encouraging. Finds a lull here in January and then kicks off another up leg in March. Seasonal for these metals is from Feb to May. Get in in Feb. A new uptrend is starting here. This is something you want to pursue.

(A Top Pick Dec 19/11. Up 6.44%.) Sold his holdings when he got concerned about coal.

With a recovery coming in China and what is going to happen in the US, is going to be very positive, first of all for coal shipments to China and secondly for copper demand.

China has just put in place a big stimulus package and it is just starting to get traction now. He likes TCK. It is going to be a beneficiary. A ship took out part of the west shore terminals but that is just a temporary supply disruption. They will fix that and things will get back to normal.

Chart shows a little bit of a breakout from a downtrend. All that tells him is that there is a little bit less risk in it and the risk/reward is in your favour. If it drops back a little, it will probably go back to $27 range. We are in bit of a seasonal play right now where metals and mining tend to give a bit of a pop. He prefers First Quantum (FM-T).Chart shows a little bit of a breakout from a downtrend. All that tells him is that there is a little bit less risk in it and the risk/reward is in your favour.

(Top Pick Dec 30/11, Down 4.40%) Good balance sheet, raised dividend twice. Copper is doing well. Coal has come down but it looks like a little bit of a rebound in China (Met Coal) so it is a good name to own.

He got rid of it and move on. He was concerned that he had too much commodity exposure. He loves their exposure to copper but not coal.

Likes it here. Commodity movement which is imminent may be a little premature. Likes the sector but it may be a little early. Put a stop in. Look at support and resistance. If a stock is at a 52 week high, it means they have some momentum.

Great company. Good resources on the coal and copper sides and zinc as well, which is not talked about anymore. Really dependent on what happens in China. With the transition of power in China, we are starting to see some of the numbers actually look like there might be growth in China again. This company should go up from here.

Problem with this is that it is just now starting to make enough base building to create something where it would be breaking out. 200 day moving average is still above the current price. Wait for a breakout.

China has a lot of copper right now and the demand for coal is slowing a little bit. That theme will not go away any time soon. He would be looking to take some money off the table and then get back in within the next 6 months.

In 2013 there is a challenge in the Coal and Copper / base metals space. Not a wonderful year globally. XME-N is an EFT he bought as a trade. He is ok with TCK as a trade for the next month or so.

Doesn’t know if it rallies because of copper or coal. Thinks there is money flowing into this. So the worst is over. It broke the down trend line. He thinks it is fine.
