Isopatch, thanks for the Kasriel's commentary. According to "Handbook of Canadian Security Analysis," copper is the proxy; the base-metal cycle is the copper cycle -- the so-called bellwether. Aluminum demand tends to be driven by the consumer and is considered a sign of an early stage economic recovery. Both nickel and zinc are late cycle plays -- capital-spending projects.

I guess the trick here when studying the charts is picking the correct time frame. Too short a period a person can be whipsawed, too long; a bear might remain a bear.

Thanks for the discussion; it's been highly educational.

Regards
Frank P.
