There were a lot of "experts" predicting moly prices would hold. I certainly was hoping they would.

Copper went from peak of 4.07 on July 3 to 1.76 to-day (also from 3.25 on sep 22 to 1.67 on Oct. 27). Moly drop was later, but even steeper, and maybe not over yet. Price of moly is still higher than most pure moly producers' marginal price of production (GPXM an exception) but low price of copper may see by-product moly production dropping.

One thing about this recession and commodities bust - puts some projects on hold, meaning next leg up in prices will be higher, steeper and more intense.
