I Took The Plunge

Posted by Peter Grandich at 10:49 AM on Monday, March 30th, 2009

No, no, not off a cliff as I know a handfull of readers would like to see.

I purchased for my own account shares in Hudbay Minerals (HBM-TSX $5.78). This is a turnaround story that technically looks like it wants to run to at least $10. The 200-Day M.A. is still heading lower and likely to be resistance but the stock has put in a “classic” rounding bottom. We can trade between $5.50 and $6 but the surprises should all be to the upside for the foreseeable future.

    looks like a good buy at 4.80 (it’s a cyclical move),, good luck !

    I didn’t want to do what I did when you told us about NDM… I also have taken a position in HBM. If it goes to $10, I will buy you lunch :)

  6. Jan says:

    Yes, Peter. I will be cautious. Scale-down buy & buy on dips only.

    Yes, Challie, I will keep the $4.80 in mind.

    Thank you both.

    Can I buy this OTC or on a pink sheet? My broker doesn’t allow trade in foreign stocks.

    Ivan, thanks for the info. A good point is raised here. For the Canadian stock recommendations, it would be good to also give the symbol under which it trades in the US.
