OXR - Oxiana Limited

Gents, I had to remove the price prediction. I don't think it was done with any ill intent, but ASF policy is that you have to give an analysis for a prediction. Hope it does get to those levels for you! kennas

OK mate, now I am with you - Whist I don't like to make price targets, I do believe OXR is a must have in any ASX portfolio - as I said, great stock with a great team paving the way for the future........ Certainly always on my watch list.

Cheers

If OXR respects support - presently at $2.80 - in 20 months time it will double in price.
This would also leave it at well above $6 within three years.
Of course if copper and gold prices head quickly north again, a repeat of last year's run to May 2006 would put OXR above $6 before the end of the year.
I predict that OXR will trade at the same current price as BHP, based on trend, at a future date.

Lol! Considering they are both heading south, BHP investors are going to be very very disappointed.

I'm a long term commodities bull in that I believe that even with a US recession, Chindia is a much longer term story that is almost self perpetuating - once the middle class are suffient to start buying all the trinkets that the US currently do. This may be a 5-20 year story. So, if as part of that process copper keeps appreciating, then maybe. Gold may appreciate until the almost decline of the US and China takes over as the new ruler of the universe, and they have 'World Series Ping Pong', and 'Mr Universe' is a competition to see who the smallest guy in the room is.

I currently doubt OXR will be around by then though. Someone else will buy them out when the valuations are right. That might be before it gets anywhere near $6.

mate you got no idea, institutions are buying the crap out of BHP right now... so whilst you follow the herd i'll follow the wolves.

Oh right, that's why it is setting new highs.

Well, I'm sure the insto's already have substantial holdings in BHP, but I see no evidence of "buying the crap out of BHP", but I do see BHP aggressively buying their own stock back daily.

Back on the topic, Bradley I hope this answers your question somewhat. (See attached)


Cheers

millionplusmate "Oh boy...is there a crystal ball dude out there!!! Whats the go with copper? Im getting mixed messages...My accountant who is always on the ball reckons copper is going to bottom down $3000 by end of year. Other pundits are blaming the falling car market and housing market in US...the latest is that South American mine sites have stockpiled heavily in last 5 years but have pushed production along at the same time. Ive done alright over the last 6 months but would be loving some good advice otherwise the new house isnt looking so rosy. Thanks in anticipation of some fresh advice.

Any thoughts on today's announcement? Looks pretty good to me, a near doubling of gold reserves...

Yes,chops the ann. sound good, but then the price action is not......

 

[Kruegs]

Any idea on why the price has not tracked upwards in the last week or so, considering the Gold price has hung on over the $640 barrier, and their announcement about doubling reserves?

Regards,

OXR has got an excellent deal, a lot of gold resources, cash, and uranium exposure. 57% of holding in NEL is worth about $100m. It just removed one of my concern that is OXR is more copper that Gold. Now it is in better shape.

Now we have to find another AGC...

I'm out. Hard to see what is going to move the SP if this sort of stuff doesn't. Will be looking at getting back in if it gets to about 2.60. Unfortunately, that's where I see it heading.

 

[j4mesa]

Unfortunately, I am stuck with these shares because I linked it with Macquarie Hi-notes.

But with the outlook of their projects, OXR looks good for long term......

 

[Out Too Soon]

I'm in! (again) Timing is everything. :

anyone believe Oxiana can get into the top 50 on the asx in 2007.

i beleive we are seeing a switch back to resources at the moment. with telstra dropping (as the defensive stock), i have picked OXR as my stock for the next 12 months.

Big call. Lol! I think we may see a correction in resource stocks Monday.
