		<description><![CDATA[Energy and basic materials took the benchmarks modestly higher on Friday, snapping a three-day losing streak. However, meager gains failed to prevent the Dow and S&#38;P 500 from suffering their worst weekly performance this year. Global economic concerns weighed on investors through the week and their influence carried onto Friday. Moreover, tepid housing data made matters worse on Friday, limiting gains. On Friday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) gained 0.3% and closed the day at 13,080.73. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) was also up 0.3% and finished Friday’s trading session at 1,397.11. The tech-laden Nasdaq Composite Index edged up 0.1% and settled at 3,067.92. The fear-gauge CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) lost 4.8% and closed at 14.82. Consolidated volumes on the New York Stock Exchange, NYSE Amex and ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[About the Industry The Metals &#38; Mining industry encompasses the extraction (mining) as well as the primary and secondary processing of metals and minerals such as aluminum, gold, precious metals, coal and steel. The industry is oligarchic in structure, with a few producers accounting for the lion’s share of the output. The largest segment of the global metals market is iron and steel, followed by aluminum. The iron and steel segment comprises more than half the industry in terms of volume. This industry includes metal ore exploration and mining services, as well as iron and steel foundries for smelting, rolling, forging, spinning, recycling, stamping, polishing and plating of iron and steel products such as pipes, tubes, wire, spring, rolls and bars.

		<description><![CDATA[European debt concerns once again weighed down the markets and dragged the Dow slightly lower, while the S&#38;P 500 and Nasdaq posted meager gains. Reports of Germany’s economy contracting during the end of 2011 and a downward revision of economic growth estimates by the European Union (EU) dented the markets. However, a late upward swing helped the markets extend their stay around five-month high levels. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) dropped 0.1% to settle at 12,449.45. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) edged up by a mere 0.03% to finish yesterday’s trading session at 1,292.48. The Nasdaq Composite Index added 0.3% to close at 2,710.76. The fear-gauge CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) rose 1.7% to settle at 21.05. On the New York Stock Exchange, NYSE Amex and Nasdaq, consolidated ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Workers at  Freeport-McMoRan Copper &#38; Gold (FCX) decided to end a strike at Peruvian copper mine Cerro Verde that began almost two months ago. Union workers discontinued their work in September 2011 to back demands for higher pay. Cerro Verde has been operating the mine at two-thirds of the normal daily rate with supervisors and volunteer personnel. As per the union, no agreement was reached with the company. However, workers expect authorities from Arequipa region, where the mine is located, to issue a resolution in the coming days in order to resolve the dispute. The union called off the strike so that the regional government could take a decision. However, the country&#8217;s longest-running mining dispute still continues at Freeport’s Grasberg mine in Indonesia. Miners at Grasberg, the world&#8217;s second-biggest copper ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Carl Delfeld, Investment U Senior Analyst Thursday, November 17, 2011 I’ll never forget my first visit as a teenager to the commodity-trading pit of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME). The swirling bright colored jackets, the shouting and rapid hand signals (looked like arm wrestling to me) were captivating and reminded me of past family gatherings. It was also the polar opposite of my later visit to the currency trading floor of JP Morgan at 1 Wall Street – row after row of white shirts hunched over computer screens and dry IMF statistics. Commodities sure looked like more fun to me. My image of commodity markets hasn’t changed all that much since. It’s a volatile and wild ride where even a tiny bit of new information affecting supply or demand ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Earnings Preview 10/14/11 While the earnings season kicked off this past week, only 38 firms reported. The game really gets under way next week, when we will get reports from 336 firms, including 99 members of the S&#38;P 500. Thus, by the end of the week we will have a very good idea of how the overall season will go. Not only will there be a lot of reports, but many of those we get will be very important ones. The table at the end of this report reads like a who’s who of American industry, including: Apple (AAPL), American Express (AXP), Bank of America (BAC), Citigroup (C), General Electric (GE), Goldman Sachs (GS), IBM (IBM), Intel (INTC) and McDonald’s (MCD). And that&#8217;s just the first half of the alphabet! ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On Friday, markets slipped heavily lower as fresh hints of weakness in the European and domestic economy crippled investor sentiment. However, it was not just Friday’s downtrend that was a matter of concern. With each benchmark losing around 12% for the quarter, this has been the worst quarter since the financial crisis in 2008. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) plunged 240.6 points or 2.2% to finish the day at 10,913.38.The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) dropped 2.5% to close at 1,131.42. The Nasdaq Composite Index sank 2.6% to settle at 2,415.40. The fear-gauge CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) jumped 10% to trade at 42.96, logging its highest close since mid-August. On the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange and Nasdaq, consolidated volumes were 8.58 billion shares, considerably ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Benchmarks snapped their three-day winning streak as investors grew anxious about Europe’s lingering debt crisis that is now threatening the global economy. Commodity shares dragged down indices as energy and raw materials lost their sheen after a steep drop in their prices. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) dropped 1.6% to settle at 11,010.90. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) was down 2.1% and finished the day at 1,151.06. The Nasdaq Composite Index slid 2.2% and closed at 2,491.58. The fear-gauge CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) jumped to hover above 41.

		<description><![CDATA[Workers at Freeport-McMoRan Copper &#38; Gold&#8216;s (FCX) Grasberg mine in Indonesia plan to go on strike in the coming days after talks with the company failed to resolve a pay dispute, a move that could tighten global copper supplies and lift prices. A strike would be the second in two months at Grasberg, the world&#8217;s third biggest copper mine that also has the biggest gold reserves, after the eight-day stoppage in July 2011 caused production losses and helped push copper prices to three-month highs. The strike by 8,000 workers halted ore shipments and caused a production loss of 60,000 ounces of gold and 35 million pounds (15,876 tons) of copper. The company&#8217;s union in Indonesia, which represents about 8,000 workers, have demanded a pay rise to between $17.5 to $43 ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Markets registered their first back-to-back gains this month, as industrial and material stocks helped push the benchmarks higher. The trading session was significantly calm compared to the high levels of volatility that the markets endured since early last month. For the first time since July 26, the Dow traded in a narrow range of a little over 150 points. Hopes about European leaders taking steps to resolve the Greek debt crisis also helped the markets’ uptrend. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) gained 0.4% and finished the day at 11,105.85. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) was up 0.9% and settled at 1,172.87. The Nasdaq Composite Index closed at 2,532.15, after gaining 1.5%.

		<description><![CDATA[Remarks from the Federal Chairman came to the rescue of the markets on Wednesday after he indicated a possible third round of economic stimulus. Subsequently, the markets ended their four-day losing streak and benchmarks ended in the green. Moreover, an encouraging report from China on its economic growth ensured that indices closed the day in positive territory. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) ended 0.2% higher at 12,491.61. The Standard &#38; poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) settled at 1,317.72 after gaining 0.3%. The Nasdaq Composite Index added 0.5% to finish the day at 2,796.92.

Nonetheless, volumes remained tight as investors anxiously await crucial non-farm payroll data from the government. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) gained 0.7% to finish at 12,719.49. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) surged 1.1% to settle at 1,353.22. The Nasdaq Composite Index was up 1.4% to close at 2,872.66.

On the NYSE, only 2.2 billion shares were traded and for four advancing stocks, only one declined. The Dow has now gained 6.6% over its last eight trading days and is ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thousands of workers kicked off a weeklong strike at  Freeport-McMoRan Copper &#38; Gold Inc.&#8217;s (FCX) gold and copper mine in eastern Indonesia, demanding higher wages and protesting the dismissal of their union leaders. The US mining giant insists that the work stoppage at the Grasberg mine in the remote province of Papua will not affect production. As per the company’s website Grasberg mine contains the world’s largest recoverable reserves of copper and the biggest single gold reserve. The workers called for a re-negotiating contract and management failed to re-negotiate contracts seeking wage increases from $1.8 to $15 per hour as the workers argue that other Freeport workers around the world are paid at least $15-30 per hour. Thousands of other striking workers, marching from the company&#8217;s mine area Tembagapura, were ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today I review two short or “naked” put trades I have talked about this month to show examples of how this option technique can be used successfully to either generate income or to buy your favorite names at a discount. On paper, one of the open trades is a winner, and one is a loser. But even the loser I am very comfortable with and I will explain why in detail. We’ll knock out the winner first and review the positive rationale and mechanics for using puts to earn option premium or to establish a buying level for a stock. On June 1 I talked about selling puts on Freeport McMoRan (FCX) on any weakness because as stock prices fall, put prices rise. I specifically mentioned selling the July 48 ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently, Rio Tinto plc (RIO) received a nod from the Indian Steel major Tata Steel to buy 26% stake in its coal mining company, Riversdale in an open offer of AUD 16.5 per share, or roughly $17.36 per share. The deal is valued at $1.1 billion. The deal is expected to give Rio Tinto full control over the Riversdale coal miner for secure coal assets for Rio’s mining requirements, on the backdrop of rising fuel prices. The transaction is expected to provide significant potential for increasing Rio Tinto’s coal output. Rio won majority control of Riversdale earlier in 2011 with a $3.9 billion bid. The company raised its holding in the African Miner to 73% in April, following a deal with the Brazilian steelmaker, Companhia Siderurgica Naciona (SID) for its 19.9% ]]></description>

However, concerns about Greece’s debt situation kept gains in check. The gains made during a volatile trading session were also attributable to the technical fundamentals of quadruple witching. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) gained 0.5% to close at 11,961.52. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) closed at 1,267.64, after climbing 0.2%. However, the Nasdaq Composite Index failed to follow the winning path of fellow benchmarks and declined 0.3% to 2,623.70. On the New York Stock Exchange, AMEX and Nasdaq consolidated volumes were 7.78 billion shares, up from the daily average of 7.58 billion. On the NYSE, the decline-advance ratio was 1,660 to 1,355.

		<description><![CDATA[Disappointing economic data combined with concerns over Greece to drag the markets lower yet again, on Wednesday. This development significantly diminishes the possibility of benchmarks avoiding their seventh straight week of losses. Financials, materials and energy dragged the indices lower while S&#38;P 500 drags closer to dropping below its March low of 1,250. The losses on Wednesday nearly washed out the gains of the previous day and investors’ fears of the benchmarks posting their losses for seven consecutive weeks for the first time in ten years resurfaced yet again. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) receded below the psychological level of 12,000 as it shed 1.5% to settle at 11,897.27. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) declined 1.7% and the Nasdaq Composite Index dropped 1.8% to finish the day ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Lukewarm economic data discouraged investors as it showed further signs of economic weakness and coupled with the negative outlook from Hewlett-Packard Company, the markets continued its stay in the red. However, on the back of favorable corporate results, the indices showed some resistance to limit its losses but could not prevent the markets from declining for the third-straight day. The Dow Jones Industrial Average, during the day, had dropped 170 points but finally rebounded to close at 12,479.58, shedding 68 points or 0.5%. The Dow finished at its lowest level since April 20. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) dropped 0.04% to finish off at 1,328.98. However, the Nasdaq Composite Index was up 0.03%. The fear-gauge CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) was up over 18.

		<description><![CDATA[Just when investors had grown despondent, indices snapped their four-day losing streak on Friday, as the biggest employment addition in five years lifted markets into the green. Both the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) and Standard &#38; Poor climbed 0.4% to settle at 12,638.74 and 1,340.20, respectively. The Nasdaq was up 0.5% and finished the day at 2,827.56. The fear-gauge CBOE Volatility Index rose above 18. On the New York Stock Exchange trading volumes were 4.4 billion shares and for every couple of shares that rose, one was on the declining side. However, due to the heavy beating that the markets suffered on the previous four days of the week, the three major indices ended the week down more than a percent. The Dow was down 1.3%, the S&#38;P 500 ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Tony D’Altorio, Investment U Research Friday, April 29, 2011 Barrick Gold (NYSE: ABX) is the world’s largest gold producer. Last year, it mined net profits of $3.3 billion, but it wants more… So it recently surprised the market with a $7.6-billion bid for Canadian-Australian copper mining company Equinox Minerals (OTC: EQXMF.PK). Barrick expects to produce 300 million pounds of copper this year, along with about 7.8 million ounces of gold. And with the Equinox acquisition, that copper figure could quadruple. The move might seem strange for a solid gold company. But Barrick wants to diversify, despite shareholder angst. African Copper Barrick isn’t the only company interested in Equinox; China’s Minmetals Resources tried to acquire it, as well. So Barrick stepped in to offer a 16 percent premium to Minmetals’ ]]></description>

Weak US new home sales data took the markets to session lows during the day before rebuilding hopes pumped in modest momentum. However, the day saw very tight volumes, reflecting investors’ concern over global worries and bank-dividend disappointment. After trading in the negative zone during the early session, the Dow Jones Industrial Average finally gained 0.6% and closed the day at 12,086.02. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 was up 0.3% and finished at 1,297.54. The Nasdaq Composite Index closed at 2,698.30 after surging 0.5%. Wednesday was one of the lightest days in terms of trading volumes on the New York Stock Exchange with composite volumes at a mere 3.9 billion shares. On ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Upbeat economic data helped offset fears of Japan’s nuclear meltdown and pushed indices higher ending a three-day losing streak for US markets. The day after the Dow recorded its largest decline since August 2010, the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 1.39% to end at 11,774.51. The S&#38;P 500 was up 1.34%, or 16.81 points, to close at 1,273.69. The tech-laden Nasdaq Composite Index too gained 19.23 points or 0.73% to close at 2,636.05. The CBOE Volatility Index, Wall Street’s fear gauge, was down 10.4%. However, the Index is up 30.8% over the week. Coming to the economic front, on Thursday the Labor Department lifted market sentiment by reporting a decrease in weekly initial claims figures. Unemployment claims shed 16,000 to 385,000 for the week ending March 12th from 401,000 recorded ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Fears of additional tightening measures by China to control inflation turned investors jittery on Thursday as markets shed a few points. Lackluster and mixed earnings reports did little to restore investors’ faith. However, positive economic data helped the indices avoid a big fall. Stronger than expected economic data from China in the fourth quarter of 2010 has led to fears that Beijing is intrude further tightening policies to combat inflation. Investors felt the pinch and the materials and energy sectors dipped lower. Positive domestic economic data played a major role in preventing indices from taking a bigger fall. The Labor Department reported jobless claims dropped by 37, 000 to 404,000 for the week ending January 15, 2011, the largest such decline since February 2010.

		<description><![CDATA[On Thursday, markets ended marginally lower and shed gains from the previous session. The dismal show of the indices yesterday was primarily due to disappointing economic data. However, successful bond auctions in Europe somewhat soothed investors’ frayed nerves. The Dow was down 0.2% and closed at 11,731.9. The S&#38;P 500 lost 0.2% and ended the day at 1,283.76. The Nasdaq composite edged down 0.1% and closed at 2,735.29. On the New York Stock Exchange, breadth of the market was marginally on the negative side and consolidated volumes stood at 4.4 billion shares. The economic data that caused much of the tension in the markets was from a report issued by the Labor Department. According to the report, the number of jobless claims surged to its highest level since October 2010. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Stocks advanced broadly on Tuesday as investors turned their focus toward the results of mid-term elections and a two-day Federal Reserve meeting that is expected to unveil more measures to revive the economy.  The advance sent the Dow average to its highest close in more than six months as most of its components marked gains on the day. Interest rate hikes from central banks of India and Australia also had a part in yesterday’s rally. The 30-share blue-chip average advanced 64 points, or about 0.6%, to 11,188.72, its highest level since April 26. The broader S&#38;P’s 500-stock index climbed more than 9 points, or nearly 0.8%, to 1193.57 and the technology-focused Nasdaq rose more than 28 points, or 1.1%, to 2533.52.

		<description><![CDATA[Total Industrial Production rose by 0.2% in August, which was a tick less than the 0.3% rise that was expected. It was also slower than the 0.6% rise in July. The July number was revised down from a 1.0% increase, but June was revised to an increase of 0.1% from a decline of 0.1%. Relative to a year ago, total Industrial Production is up 6.2%. These numbers are slightly disappointing, but far from a disaster, as much of the weakness can be traced to some seasonal adjustment problems. Total Industrial Production includes not only the output of the nation’s factories, but of its mines and utility power plants as well. The production and consumption of electricity generally has as much to do with the weather as it does with overall ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Overview The Metals &#38; Mining Industry encompasses the extraction (mining), as well as the primary and secondary processing of metals and minerals such as aluminum, gold, precious metals, coal and steel. The industry is oligarchic in structure, with a few producers accounting for the lion’s share of the output. The largest segment of the global metals market is iron and steel, followed by aluminum. The iron and steel segment comprises more than half the industry in terms of volume. This industry includes metal ore exploration and mining services, iron and steel foundries for smelting, rolling, forging, spinning, recycling, stamping, polishing and plating of iron and steel products such as pipes, tubes, wire, spring, rolls and bars. Luxembourg-based ArcelorMittal (MT), the world’s largest steel producing company, produced 73.2 million tons in ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In April, Industrial Production rose 0.8%, which was in line with consensus expectations. The revisions to previous months&#8217; data was more or less a wash, with growth being revised up in March by 0.1% to 0.2%, and for January it was revised up by 0.2% to 1.2%. That was offset by a 0.4% downward revision to February to -0.1%. While that downward revision makes it no longer possible to say that Industrial Production has been rising every month since last June, the overall revisions don’t really change the picture that much. Behind the Headline Numbers When one looks just a bit beyond the headline numbers, the data looks even better than the 0.8% growth implies.  For starters keep in mind that these are month to month changes, not annual rates.  ]]></description>

The industry is oligarchic in structure, with a few producers accounting for the lion’s share of production. Geographically, the Asia-Pacific region is witnessing higher production and consumption of metals, especially China and India. Their per capita consumption levels are graduating to U.S./European levels, which could &#8212; theoretically, at least &#8212; double metal demand in the longer term. Historically, the automotive and construction markets have been the largest drivers of metal consumption, accounting for more than 50% of the total demand. Other metal consuming industries include energy, electrical equipment, agricultural, domestic and commercial equipment and industrial machinery.

		<description><![CDATA[Freeport-McMoRan Copper &#38; Gold Inc. (FCX) reported net income of $897 million or $2.00 per share in the first quarter of 2010, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.92 per share. Earnings improved significantly from a modest net income of $43 million, $0.11 per share in the first-quarter 2009. Revenues climbed 68% to $4.4 billion helped by surging prices of copper, gold and molybdenum. Phoenix-based Freeport-McMoRan has been showing signs of recovery. The company’s earnings rose for the first time in the third quarter of 2009 on higher sales to China and other developing countries, as well as lower costs of production and delivery. The market for base metals like copper has improved, although global demand outside China remains weak. Copper sales volumes were down 4% in the quarter to ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In March, total Industrial Production rose by 0.1%. While that is a slowdown from recent growth rates, and far below consensus expectations of 0.7% growth, if one looks beyond the headline number, it is actually a fairly positive report. For starters, each of the previous three months was revised higher, with growth in February now estimated at 0.3% rather than the original 0.1%, January rising 1.0% instead of 0.9% and December showing growth of 0.7% rather than 0.5%. Those upward revisions are a very good omen for first quarter GDP growth. Year over year, industrial production is up 4.0%. Total industrial production includes not just the output of the nation&#8217;s factories, but of its mines and utilities as well. It is the utility portion that tends to cause the most ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Freeport-McMoRan Copper &#38; Gold Inc. (FCX) shares rose 1.6% or $1.26 to close at $79.17 in after-trade hours after Fitch Ratings Services affirmed the issuer default rating and debt ratings of the world&#8217;s largest publicly traded copper company. Fitch has retained its &#8220;BBB-&#8221; rating for issuer default as well as revolving bank loans of $1 billion and $500 million and unsecured notes due in 2015 and 2017, besides 7% convertible notes due in 2011, reports AP. Fitch’s “BBB&#8221; rating is issued for all investment grade medium class companies. Debt of such companies is long-term debt, which is satisfactory at the moment for Freeport. Fitch has assigned a “Positive&#8221; rating outlook to the stock. Fitch is positive on Freeport’s strategy of debt reduction and its strong cash flow. Freeport’s total debt ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In February, the Producer Price Index (PPI) fell by 0.6%, a far bigger decline than the 0.2% drop expected by the consensus of forecasts. However, all of the decline came from a bigger-than-expected fall in Energy prices. The core index, which strips out the volatile food and energy components rose by 0.1%, which was in line with forecasts. The decline in the headline number only partially reversed the big 1.4% increase in January, which came on top of a 0.4% rise in December. Core prices have been much more stable (as is normally the case) with this month’s 0.1% rise coming on top of a 0.3% increase in January and an unchanged reading in December.  Unfortunately, energy prices, especially crude oil, have rallied so far in March, so the headline number for March ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Institute for Supply Management’s survey of the Manufacturing sector of the economy rose by 3.5 points to 58.4 in January from 54.9 in December. That far exceeded consensus expectations for an increase to 55.5. It is also the highest reading on the consensus index since August of 2004. This is a stunning turnaround in the index, which in December of 2008 stood at 32.5, its lowest level since March of 1975. The index is set up so that any reading above 50.0 indicates that the manufacturing side of the economy is expanding, and any level below that indicated contraction. It is composed of ten sub-indexes, nine of which rose in January and eight of which are now above the magic 50 mark. The overall index has now been above ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The world’s largest publicly traded copper company, Freeport-McMoRan Copper &#38; Gold Inc. (FCX), reported fourth-quarter 2009 earnings of $2.15 per share, ahead of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.59 per share. Earnings represented a significant turnaround from a $14 billion loss in the same quarter the previous year. Revenues more than doubled to $4.61 billion. Phoenix-based Freeport-McMoRan has been showing signs of recovery. The company’s earnings rose in the third quarter for the first time in 2009 on higher sales to China and other developing countries, as well as lower costs for production and delivery. Freeport’s performance reflects a successful execution of various cost-reduction initiatives and higher ore grades at Grasberg. The company is responding aggressively to the economic downturn by curtailing production levels, cutting costs, reducing exploration expenditures and ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Industrial Production rose by 0.6% in December, matching both the revised November increase (previously 0.8%) and consensus expectations. However, when you dig just a bit below the surface, the report was weaker than expected. Manufacturing output actually declined 0.1%, and the November rise was revised down to 0.9% from 1.1%, while the October number was revised up to a decline of 0.1% from the previous 0.2% decline. The overall increase was due to a 5.9% surge in Utility output, which has more to due with a cold snap in December than it does with a surge in economic activity. In November, which was milder than normal, Utility output fell by 2.4%. The third major component, Mining, saw its output rise by 0.2%, a big slowdown from the 1.9% surge in ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[U.S. stocks ended the day little changed as a mixed bag of economic data and caution ahead of the government’s employment report on Friday kept traders on the sidelines.  The FOMC minutes did not sound too convincing on the economy’s upturn, and traders pondered over the economy’s direction. US dollar weakened as the release of the minutes strengthened expectations interest rates would continue to remain exceptionally low.  The weakness in dollar sent commodity prices higher and Treasuries lower.  Although inflationary risks were deemed low, the policy makers appeared less convinced about the recovery&#8217;s strength, with housing still a concern. The Dow Jones industrial average ended the day almost unchanged, closing at 10,574.  The broader S&#38;P 500, helped by the strength in its basic material and oil and gas components, closed ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Metals &#38; Mining Industry encompasses the extraction (mining), as well as the primary and secondary processing, of metals and minerals. The industry is rather concentrated in structure, with a few producers accounting for the lion’s share of sales. Geographically, the Asia-Pacific region is witnessing higher production and consumption of metals, especially China and India. This is due to the per capita consumption in these two counties approaching the U.S./European levels, which could ? theoretically at least ? double metal demand in the longer term. Historically, the automotive and construction markets have been the largest drivers of metal consumption, more than 50% of the total demand. Other metal consuming industries include energy, electrical equipment, agricultural, domestic and commercial equipment and industrial machinery. Large automakers such as General Motors, Ford Motor ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Karim Rahemtulla, Options Expert Tuesday, December 1, 2009: Issue #1148 Take a quick glance at the share prices of certain companies today and you’d think the savage 2008 was a distant memory. But 2009 has confounded the “experts” who called for more of the same this year, with stocks rallying sharply, giving investors a chance to recoup some of their losses – and even turn a profit. However, not everyone jumped aboard. And during the greatest destruction of wealth in our generation, few could blame them. So if you feel like you’ve missed the boat on some of Wall Street’s resurgence this year, I have some great news. Companies like Apple (Nasdaq: APPL), Google (Nasdaq: GOOG), Cisco (Nasdaq: CSCO), Dow Chemical (NYSE: DOW), and Freeport McMoran (NYSE: FCX) are ]]></description>

Year to date, new durable goods orders are 23.0% below the level for the first ten months of last year. If we exclude the extremely volatile Transportation sector, new durable goods orders fell 1.3% after rising 1.8% last month. Transportation equipment includes jetliners, and one new order for a 787 from Boeing (BA) can easily swamp lots of new durable goods orders for smaller ticket items. It was mostly the Boeing order book that partially saved the day for total new durable goods orders, as orders for non-defense aircraft surged by 50.8% in the month. Last month ]]></description>
