That's the trouble with all the "buy unpopular stocks" stuff usually attributed to Buffett - it's hard because you have to go out on a limb with a batch of stocks no-one wants!
Who wants zinc at the moment? No-one apparently. Only a handful more that that want nickel.
Hopefully it's like the reverse of that saying "nothing kills high prices like high prices", with low prices resulting in a fall in supply from higher-cost producers.
Then all it would take is an unexpected interruption to supply (like there haven't been any of those) or unexpected demand and it's on again.
