RE:Many thanks"Does anybody have anything useful to say about NCU?"
Well, it depends upon your window. If you need it for tomorrow, you're probably out of luck. If it might be useful in the months and years ahead, I would suggest taking a hard look at the extreme weather that is occurring in MAJOR copper mining regions and come to recognize the consequential disruption of commerce in those areas. IMO the disruption of mining globally will cause the copper that can reach the markets, will sell for $8/lb. or more.
You see. you don’t have to shut down all the vulnerable mines to make industry realize the problem at hand. When one major mine shuts down due to climate change, it will suddenly be on everyone’s mind, and prices for copper and those mines resistant to weather effects will rise spectacularly. I cannot give you the date on when this will happen, if it will occur this year, or next, or whenever, but I am confident that those who anticipate this new threat to supply will recognize its development early on and thereby can make the necessary adjustments to prosper in the new normal.
Ignorance might be bliss, but it's so expensive!
