I am sure you would have prefered to offer your views rather than pose a one word reply.
If you contend otherwise, what would your reasons be?
I think freeballing's comments are not only accurate, they make more sense than a contrary position.
An a time of increasing interest rates and rising CPI one's money in the bank will not earn much at all in real terms. However, the proven outperformance of commodity based equities suggests freeballing is a somewhat conservative advocate of investing in ZFX and KZL - and I am definitely not!

I aggree ZFX is tied to the zinc price, and this is a risk. And I dont particularily like their sideways movement at the moment. I do however like KZL right now for a run.

It really is as simple as buying low and selling higher.
Anyone who says different is not trading equities.
ZFX is similar to many of the mineral-related producing equities: They have experienced a downtrend, then consolidation since mid-May.
That trend is likely to end this quarter and my view is that all these equities will surpass the former highs over coming months.
Zinc will be an outperform medium/long term, while nickel is a stellar perform near term, before coming off the boil sharply at some time in the last quarter.

Buy early or into the uptrend.
Hold.
See the trend coming to an end.
Sell.
Gap = years.
An example:
My entry price into WPL is $13.65 and despite a rough trot since May, I have held because the strongest time of year is typically the second half.
As I get older, I tend to hold longer: No need to worry about markets day to day.
When I saw OSH dip almost 15% the other day, I bought in "at market" for the brief time I was near a computerand could log in to trade.
I sold APA during the week at $5 after holding for several years.
I have a buy order open for APA at $4.50 in the hope it retraces.
It may not and I don't care if it doesn't: I don't feel the need to chase it as there are hundreds of other opportunities that could offer a good result.
Hope this explanation helps.

Yup a good day alround for the miners- the only one on my watchlist ignored is CBH. Even my old fav (though also a bit of a dog) CSM is encroaching on $2.00.michael_selway said:Hi not only ZFX, but KZL, PEM, OXR in general?

nizar said:yes it was an excellent results... market cap of 5billion and net profit of 1.1billion u dont see companies like that evryday!
zinc prices havent peaked yet; they probably will sometime next year when the spike comes; but we are well due for a run; and when spot zinc runs, ZFX always leads the way...
