DON'T BUY
If they can make it through this tunnel, they'll have quite a bit of leverage on the way back up. Copper has been having a nice bounce. If it goes above $2 he'll start considering the metals.
Mining
PARTIAL BUY
Denison Mines Corp
The only way demand for energy can be met is through nuclear. Uranium is a very good long-term play. You could start adding a little bit if you have a long-term spectrum.
non-base metal mining
BUY

oil / gas
COMMENT
Stagflation: Commodity prices are firming up ahead of the stock market. Will this put pressure on companies with margins if these companies if the prices firm up too much? Yes. People have to reposition their portfolios differently and be prepared for much higher inflation and much higher economic times.

WAIT
Precision Drilling
If you have a long-term horizon, drilling will pick up at some point. It has to come back. Probably not a bad time, but when will there earnings show? Thinks it's still early.
oil / gas field services
DON'T BUY
Not keen on diamond producers right now. Very consumer oriented and people will be thinking twice before buying diamond products.
integrated mines
BUY
Conversion to a corporation has already been built into the price of the stock. Income from trusts is a nice added benefit but he is not buying these for income. You have to realize the importance of the tar sands to the global economy. Consider them as long-term investments.
oil / gas
COMMENT
Trading at $.72 and cash value is about $.93. He prefers their convertible bond, which gives him a good way to sit on cash. It is trading at $.40 on the $1. (See Top Picks.) US refinery produces jet fuel and the margins on this are good because of a lack of producers.
