Equity Income Funds This is because the use of copper is so widespread throughout our lives. Most of the appliances in your house use copper: the fridge, the dishwasher, the microwave, and the washing machine just to name a few.

Viridian, the holding company for Northern Ireland's electricity, is in talks over a .62billion bid by Bahraini private equity firm Arcapita Bank.

Capital Casebook Equity By the time you add up the electrical wiring, pipes and so on, the average home uses 400 pounds of copper. And your car? Another 50 pounds.

Equity Mutual Funds So copper prices have something to say about global construction trends.

Birmingham Contact Equity Copper went on an extended bull run starting in 2003, topped out below $4.00 per pound, and then fell off a cliff.

Private Equity Investment Firm The severity of the drop was registered almost all in one month – October 2008. That's an indicator as to what degree the entire global economy slammed on the brakes as a result of the credit crisis.

Complying Deal Equity Funds But now that copper has retreated back to 2005 levels – and other base metals back to 2003 levels – what does it mean?

Equity Msn Private Wyoming I can think of two plausible explanations. Either the global infrastructure boom is well and truly dead, or the panic-driven sell-off as a result of the credit crisis was overdone.

American Equity Investment China Picks Door #2

Equity Index Funds On Sunday, November 9th, China sent a clear message that infrastructure is not dead. We still need it, China said in so many words, and we're going to build like crazy.

Equity Private Team Wyoming In more official terms, Beijing approved a 4 trillion Yuan "stimulus plan," with most of the funds slated for infrastructure spending between now and 2010. (In dollar terms, 4 trillion Yuan is roughly $586 billion.)

Equity Group Investment Not everyone was impressed by the news. While some called it a major development, others shrugged. China was going to spend this money on infrastructure anyway, the shruggers said. The announcement was meant more as a booster shot – a tonic for global sentiment.

Capital Development Equity My view, though, is that it doesn't really matter whether China's "mass stimulus plan" is truly a big shift or just new gloss on an old agenda.

Article Between Difference The point is, that money – more than half a trillion dollars – will be spent on infrastructure. Beijing has confirmed it aggressively and openly: the global building boom is not dead.

Contact Equity Private Wyoming We Still Need It

Agreement Equity Investment Everything the world needed before the credit crunch, it still needs now. Bridges, roads, ports, airports, refineries, you name it. And China, a country sitting on $2 trillion in reserves, has just pledged to open up the checkbook and spend like crazy.

Business Equity Funds It's true we don't need any more houses in the U.S. or Britain just now – but even in the aftermath of the housing bust, countries like China and India and Brazil are on a residential upswing.

Private Equity Fund And by the way, what we do need in the U.S., and need badly, are repairs and upgrades.

Investment Property Home America's infrastructure – everything from sewer pipes to interstates – is on the verge of falling apart. We are looking at long-term repair and upkeep charges that run into the tens of trillions.

Managed Equity Funds Basic Comforts

Capital Entrepreneurial Equity In sum, I like the base metals here. (I like precious metals too, but that's a different story.) If you're looking for good, safe places to put your money, I would consider some of the well-run base metal producers.

Private Equity Hedge Funds To recap:

Email Equity Private Wyoming • Base metals (also known as industrial metals) have been unduly crushed by the credit crisis.

Equity Loan On Investment • The market is acting as if the global infrastructure boom is dead and buried.

Equity Income Mutual Funds • China's 4 trillion Yuan (nearly $600 billion) "mass stimulus plan" says infrastructure spending is not dead. Maybe they were going to build like crazy anyway... but that's the point.

Private Equity Group • It's the world, not just China, that has plenty of building left to do. In due time we will see a return to global growth, and a return to pre-crisis trend patterns.

Private Investment Public • The U.S. might have a housing glut, but we are looking at huge outlays on the maintenance and upkeep side of things. The longer we put off these repairs, the more pressing they become.

Real Estate Private Equity A Quiet Oil Hedge

Contact Equity Private Us Oh, and one more thing. Another modest benefit of base metal producers is their negative correlation to oil prices.

Real Estate Equity Investment In other words, if you're holding any long energy positions in your portfolio – and who wouldn't be with the bargains out there now – you have exposure to slumping oil prices right?

Structuring Venture Capital As heavy users of diesel fuel and electricity, the base metal miners can actually benefit from weak oil prices (which lower their production cost).

Equity Private Quebec Team As I said, not a huge factor... but a modest diversification benefit for an energy-biased portfolio.

Equity Mail Private Wyoming The "Lethargy" Strategy

Investment Home Equtiy Loan When will base metals prices start to rise again? I don't know. But I'm not buying these producers for a trade, so I don't have to know. I can be patient.

Private Equity Jobs In the past Warren Buffett has joked that "lethargy" (laziness) is a key component of his investment strategy. I'm taking a page from the Buffett book here.

Equity Investment Strategy In practice, that means I'm on the lookout for high quality base metals producers with strong balance sheets, plenty of cash in the bank, good cash flow, smart management, and low share prices to boot.

Education Equity Investment When you come across a company with the above characteristics, you can just buy a good chunk of shares, throw the position in a drawer, and sit back to wait for the inevitable double or triple.

Private Equity Company A Great Buy... Right Now

Equity Guide In Investment I recently found a base metals producer with exactly the characteristics mentioned above, trading (as of this writing) for under $6 per share.

Contact Equity Private Quebec Better still, this company is a true "net-net" in value investing terms. Because investors irrationally hate the base metals so much right now, the company is selling for less than the value of its cash in the bank.

Home Equity Investment I can't give the name away here, as that wouldn't be fair to Safe Haven Investor subscribers. But if you sign up for Safe Haven Investor (at a cost less than your weekly trip to Starbucks), you can pull up the November 7th hotline for a full write-up.
