Q: Would you please comment upon the arrangement between CS and Mantos. Do you prefer CMMC as a copper play? I would appreciate your reasons for preferring one company or the other.
Q: Can you please comment on the recent price action on the two copper stocks above? Is the 18%+ jump in FM over the past 5 days strictly due to the price of copper or is there another catalyst? Also would appreciate your thoughts on both stocks going forward.
Q: good morning - i have a position in LUN which has wandered of late. I do want copper exposure and wonder if LUN is the best company in canada or whether there is a better company at present. So, is it buy, sell or hold my current LUN and what other companies would you suggest? thanks al
Q: I am thinking of taking a position in CS. May I have your assessment of this company?. If you prefer another stock in this space, please advice. Thank you. Cheers
Ignoring tax consequences, how would you rank CMMC, CS, FCX, and NTR to boost our Basic Materials exposure? The only exposure we have is XMA, which is heavier into gold, but going forward, we're interested in copper and fertilizers.
Q: I own a small position in TKO as part of a basket of copper stocks. It appears to be underperforming the others. My question is whether you see potential for it so as to maintain or add to the position or whether you would sell and transfer the proceeds to stocks I also own such as CS and ERO? Thank you for your advice.
Q: Hi again 5i,
Could I have your thoughts on the prospects for copper generally and CS particularly over the next 6 months or so? I understand China might have a lot to do with where copper goes but I don't feel very confident about analyzing the economics and/or geopolitics that affect copper miners and producers. Not long ago CS was looking very strong but very quickly it seems to have lost its lustre - is this just par for the course for commodities or are the swings accelerating as the pace of events and news travels ever faster?
Thanks,
Peter

Any thoughts on the recent pull back with Capstone Mining? Is this company specific, and do you think copper has reached its limit? Just wondering if I should continue holding or get out. The news out of China isn't helping, just hope this is a blip.
Q: i am down around 20% on CS .... based on all this recovery chatter ..... should I add more
also,
if there is an increase in inflation, fed says transitory, does owning hard assets like copper producers a good idea... if not then what would you suggest ..thx
Q: i seem to have an overload of miners. can you suggest what i should trim or do i hold everyone for the economic expansion yet to come and hope cooper will remain as valuable as experts seem to say for the pending electrification of the vehicle and infrastructure ...thx much
Q: All these CAD stocks have been severely hurt today, do you know the reasons why? True that some have had worst than expected earnings releases but it looks like there has been a wholesale seller out there
Q: Capstone has had a wonderful quarter or two. I've never owned a mining stock before, and frankly, I have no idea what to expect as a top out price. I could sell now and do well, but I would hate to do so and be watching the stock continue to climb. Not to be greedy, just looking for a little stock parameter guidance, please.
