what is total woof woof, page-7

Hi Scottaru,

I wouldn't even bother with first post - one liner "chook fart"

He must have gotten burnt trying to short it.

I noticed that although RIO's Profit more than doubled, its cost in production increased 20% due to labour shortages. That would be my only concern if demand from China slowed given BHP's committment in expansion. I see that possibility more likely 2006 - 2007.

However, I would expect contingencies to be put in place to cover alot of the risk in the event of any major downfall in demand & prices. The best risk averse that BHP has taken is its diversity.

Cheers
