    Sorry...

    But if that is the extent of his research...then clearly it is for dummies.

    I am not saying I disagree...just that the arguments put forward are somewhat juvenile to say the least.

    lol...hybrid cars use 4 times as much copper...not exactly a rocket scientist is he?

    so what doest this mean in the overall scheme of things?

    What about the demise of hydrocarbon energy dependence in increasingly pivotal roll nuclear energy will play...which of course means electricity...which of course means copper.

    Sure...hybrid cars will use more copper than normal cars, but are we really looking at big numbers here relative to other usues? Might as well say the wine industry uses more copper in the form of fungacides the more humid it gets...so by extension, we could say the green-house effect increases copper usuage 4 fold in this industry.

    Buy copper shares!

    So much more he could have talked about...housing for example, one of the biggest users of copper and of course, the almost exponential industrialisation of countries like China and India.

    What about exiting stockpiles and/or existing and expected production near term...and into the future...and how many new world-scale mines can we expect to hit the stage over the period in question?

    What about the offsetting effects of the replacement of bikes and other low technology items...and what about the ongoing replacement of copper with plastics and glass in hot-water systems...as well as the various forms of delivery piping.

    Also...how about a little more detail on such things as likely cyclical peaks and falls as new mines come on stream and older ones cease production...or even a political assessment of some of the more troublsome copper producing regions?

    Finally and perhaps most importantly, what about the increasing popularity of hotcopper...and general improvements to thew site...what impact might this have going forward?

    But yes he is right...copper holds great long term investment potential...so its fairly obvious that current producers or near term producers with growth prospects will offer significant investment opportunities.

    Oh yeah...and they have to be cheap?

    Well...duh?

    I certainly hope people are not paying too much for this sort of coverage...all sounds a bit too motherly to me.

    Cheers!
