>> I think you own a *bunch* of Gold mines in northern Canada. <<

not yet. all in good time. i think i have puts and calls in a strangle play on hm and nem. dont care whether gold goes up or down short-term, just want it to move. long-term i think it goes higher so yes i am looking for a good entry point. we will have to see if it holds support at 264 & the low 250's or if it is heading down to 200. when i am ready to buy canadian, i will buy teck corp which just bought cominco. look at all the metals they are a play on plus coal too. perfect diversified metals play. cominco is even selling power because it's more profitable than mining.

Teck Corporation: Production of gold, copper, zinc, lead, molybdenum, niobium, silver and metallurgical coal. Base and other metals accounted for 34% of 2000 revenues; smelting and refining, 28%; Coal, 21% and gold 17%.

Cominco Limited. Production and marketing of zinc and lead concentrates and metals. It also mines copper, molybdenum and germanium; produces and markets copper, silver, gold, cadmium, bismuth, indium, copper sulphate, copper arsenate, sodium antimonate, sulphur, sulphuric acid, sulphur dioxide, sodium bisulphate and ammonium bisulphate; and provides hydroelectric power. Zinc accounted for 59% of 2000 revenues; copper, 12%; power, 9%; lead, 6%; silver, 6%; and others, 8%.

Cominco Ltd. announced today that, in order to provide additional power for sale, it will reduce zinc production at its refinery in Trail, B.C., by 25 percent for the months of April, May and June, 2001.
Sufficient power has been sold to ensure the same level of profitability for Trail as if full production of zinc had been maintained during these three months.

>> I've always admired Jimmy Rodgers too <<

that's because you're both old, rich, and like to chase young women. jimmy convinced a blonde half his age to ride with him 65,000 miles around the world on a motorcycle. now any man that can do that is a man i admire.

>> Why doesn't CNBC have him on their show anymore? <<

he was just on friday but i missed him. he is on a 3 year world tour documenting the state of the world at the turn of the new millennium. he left jan 1, 1999 with another hot blonde that looks half his age and he's visited about 100 countries so far. he married her on jan 1, 2000 in england and they are driving around in a 1/2 million dollar custom 4x4 mercedes, with a crew that follows them and records everything. last i heard he was in australia.

i started a thread devoted to him 3 years ago.
Subject 18756
