Vt, great article -- at-the-moment there's a lot of talk of recovery because of the move in base metals. It's a signal dammit! But a signal for what?

There was a program on the tele the other day called "The Great Game," it was a 2 hour history of the stock market. I wasn't too bad a program I even stayed awake for most of it. There was one segment where they illustrated charts on base metal stocks (including steel companies) where they became 5 baggers during periods of war. They just rocketed through WWI and WWII time periods - nice place to be as an investor.

I think the moves in these stocks are very much like the moves in the Canadian integrated oil companies. This isn't a sign of recovery as much as it is a war insurance premium. I think Mr. Market is giving us a signal of a prolonged and expanded war in the ME

Regards
Frank P.
