If the USD would stop going up that would probably help all our lives. I think most people trading at the spec end are probably resource heavy in their investment thesis and that makes times like this tough. Just have to look at the divergence of XJO/XEC this year to see what we have all been suffering.

I would be lying if I said I had made good choices in the way I have traded this year but I do believe quality companies will come to the fore when conditions become more favourable.

I am pretty bullish Cu MT, and given that is the majority of NZC Stage 1 revenue that is more critical than Co (not that I expect it to be awful).
