bhp settles iron ore price with baosteel , page-101

Hi karicoum,
I am not licensed to give advice LOL.

What you raise is a question all of us has to deal with.

I can't see BHP tracking sideways for years. When market sentiment turns positive fundamentals will be king again.

In my humble view, the market will struggle to find a stock with better fundamentals that BHP-Billiton, world's BIGGEST diversified mining company.

Its production report is due out in a fortnight, and financial report mid next month. I think you'll find it will be glowing.

If I wanted to sleep easy at night (and I do holding BHP), I'd shut down the screen and cash out the investment in the future when it's approaching $100.

But I like making money along the way by trading it too ---Either way I'm winning. But that's me.

You'll have to weigh up your own position, and knowing when to dip your toe in or pull it out again can be difficult.

Good luck ;)
