RE: Bad DayStop whining. If you don't see value in your investment then sell & buy something else. Of course then you will be whining on that board on the days when it underperforms its comparables.
I did a lot of analysis recently (a week ago) on LUN versus HBM (I own quite a bit of each). Each stock is trading for about 5-6 times 2007 estimated EPS. They will both show about the same growth in 2007. They both have good, very comparable balance sheets. They both have good assets skewed to zinc production. They produce mostly the same metals in similar ratios with similar grades. However LUN has far better RLI (11x reserves plus resources) and appears to be positioned for much better growth in production beginning in 2009. Based on this I would suggest that HBM seems more popular but LUN offers better value. I will continue to hold both for now but may begin to shift at some point. Cheers!!!
