Manufacturing & Inverstor Info The links below lead to a reports on projected growth in American manufactuing vs China, and an insider trading report hilighting Kevin Douglas' purchase of more shares of AMSC.
The Manufacturing report is notable for giving an 18% wage inflation figure for the Chinese labour market. If true this will quickly offset much of the cost advantage that Chinese miners have in working low grade or morginal deposits. Factor in increasining energy and transportation costs etc, and it points to dramaticly increasing cost pressures which would prevent further commodity price drops and point to future rebound in APT pricing. Especially as they project USA to maintain pace with projected growth in Chinese manufacturing.
The inside trader report is self explanatory... Kevin Douglas is holding true to form in backing up his fundemental investing strategy by increasing his stake in a company that holds promise for future growth, but has experienced alarming recent SP setbacks. Is he misguided in chasing a stock down, or insightful in seeing the longterm value of the contrarian investment? Is he as committed to his investment in NT?
