tonystringy, that all depends on whether the pending recession happens and how hard. It has the knock on effect on stunting growth in those developing economies which in turn leads to a sudden glut of materials, so until any major recession are ruled out cannot see things going into orbit on the resources front, apart from gold and oil which I think will have a nice run this year. O/T talking of gold, Aurum (AUR) still on a breakout, and still very undervalued IMO (simply times thier gold by a miserly 75$), and still rumours persist of a takeover.
