Q: Looking at adding to 2 areas - stocks that might benefit from increased defense spending in Canada, and stocks in the metals sector. How would you rate these stocks on a scale of 1 to 10 for a buy at this time? 10 being something you like a lot, 5 if you are indifferent, and 1 if you have zero interest in owning it. ARIS, CS, HBM, OGC, PAAS, SVM for metals and CGY, FTG, MDA, PNG for defense related.

With electrification of Industry etc. and the build out of data centres, would you consider this to be an okay time to invest in Copper given the recent run-up? Or wait for consolidation?

Q: Copper has shown a remarkable run, over past 6-9 months and Technical analysts like the move, and believe. it has lot more room to go, after almost a 10 year consolidation.

We took an exposure to Copper, through Hudbay Minerals, with an initial 1% position, during the pull back earlier this week.

What are your thoughts on the commodity/miners and what would be a reasonable weighting in a portfolio similar to 5i Balanced ?

Dou you like HBM ? Or, you would prefer to have Copper exposure through COPX, or any Large/Mid Cap Canadian names and why ?

Thank You

Q: I am looking to start a position in copper mining within my TFSA. What company would you suggest based upon prospects for future growth? I am currently 62 years old and I am investing money I will not need for a long while. I prefer to invest in companies that are making money or are about to start making money. Thanks in advance.
