WEAK BUY
Tended to be a little slow. People got impatient that the price hadn't done fanatastic. It's beginning to show that they have a 200,000 oz type mine. They're not really operators and at some point a partner will come in.
HOLD
An extremely high quality, particularily in the oil sands.
BUY
You can buy this one now if taking a very long term view. It will expand its production hugely over the years in the tar sands.
HOLD
Potential diamond producer. Resources near them are into one of the most phenominal clusters of kimberlites in the world. Expects there will be a mine.
BUY
Seems to have broken out of the doldrums it was in. People were nervous about the absorbtion of the big US operation. Great operators. A good area to be in.
BUY
One of the best of the Canadian banks. Long term outlook is tremendous. International operations. Good leadership.
BUY
A peculiar asset as it is the only other legitimate producer after Cameco (CCO-T). Has a lot of irons in the fire. Has part ownership of the next mine that comes on.
BUY
The nickel assets in Cuba are strong. The coal assets are really quite exciting regarding income trust activity. Well run company.
BUY
Good dividend. If they do manage to spin the wheels a bit with the Allstream business that they acquired, you have a little extra there. A good hold.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick May 25/05. Down 12.5%.) There has been a little bit of a lull in the shiping area. Not main China/Asia type traffic, but is Atlantic. They are making expansions on their Australian routes. Safe at this level. Gives a $2 dividend. Could be a takeover target.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick May 25/05. Up 5%.) A very high quality company.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick May 25/05. Up 3%.) Worth holding.
BUY
One of the crack teams in Canada that are able to produce, identify and are responding with good increase in production.
BUY
The coals have been enigmatic. Burgeoning new producers in the northwest as a result of metalurgical content quality and the global demand. Coals, including this one have started on the move again in the last few days. Have a chance of rising 50%.
BUY
Has been an example of one of the smaller ones that went into a bit of a retreat, but are starting to move again. Good producer. Have gone through the 20,000 a day wall of production and are heading on up.
