Q: I have been watching both copper and Brent for an entry into both FM and BDI (high correlation to Brent and WTC). Both stocks are up today and particularly FM. But can any stock in either segment do very well as long as the underlying resource continues to tank? There is no signs of recovery in either that I can see.

Q: Would you consider this a good time to buy FM in view of the article in the globe that states a "heightened level of risk" from a possible decline in copper prices following Zambia's decision on Friday to raise royalties for open pit copper mines to 20% from 6%." The price still appears to be going down.

Q: I have recently added Hudbay to my portfolio and am looking for another mining stock to add. What would you suggest?

Q: I am thinking of selling a 2% weighting in PWF to purchase "First Quantum Minerals". It would increase my materials weighting to about 12%. I would still be overweight in financials (BNS, TD and SLF remaining).
My materials weighting is creeping up and secure dividend income reduced for possible capital gain.
Do you like First Quantum and does it seem to make sense to sell PWF to buy them? I was an old Inmet share holder who didn't want to tender to First Quantum. But it must be said they picked-up Inmet on the cheap so I guess we have to give them credit. Inmet had some great copper properties and the price of copper just seems to be getting stronger.
Your thoughts please.

Q: Hi Team
I know copper is not popular at the moment...however I thought of investing for the long term. I would like a rather pure play and with a company that will survive until demand and prices recover. What companies might fit the bill...Thanks for your assistance!

Q: Thanks for the recent answer regarding Sheritt (S). You commented that it was okay but wasn't a "screaming buy". Made me wonder what companies you think fall into this wonderful category? Thanks again.
