If I look at the relative pricing of the precious metals, it seems as though the only 'bargain basement' price level left is for copper. Everyone seems to be forgetting that the whole world is on a infrastructure boom, there have been lots of not-so-creative-destruction in Japan, NZ, Australia, China just within the last 24 months, and people are signing up in droves to be electrified, internet connected, and all lead pipes in upper class homes are being replaced with copper ones. On top of this, a brief visit to Shenzhen will prove to anyone that the amount of copper going into wire harnesses in cars, vacuum cleaners, and every other form of electric motors is all going to drive up 'industrial' demand for copper, methinks even more than silver.

Grateful for your views, esp if anyone has thoughts on which way to play a copper boom.
