Educational Segment. Volatility and uncertainty in political events around the world. The commentary on the Italian elections was all about uncertainty. The key test is whether the market can make a new high in the next few months. We still have the risk of more volatility and of retesting the recent lows. There is not a strong reason to price in a recession right now.

It looks from the chart like the stock is breaking out. In 2011 and 2014 there were spikes. He does not know what is causing the current one. It is a speculative move and probably does not have a lot of longevity in it.

Zinc, Copper commodities did well this year. You have to make a call on Met coal, however, with this stock. If the price stays where it is then the stock is a screaming buy. But he sees the coal price coming off. China may restrict imports.
