Global Mining Investing is a reference eBook to teach investors how to think and act as investors with a underlying theme of managing risk. The book touches on a huge amount of content which heavily relies on knowledge that can only be obtained through experience...The text was engaging, as I knew the valuable outcome was to be a better thinker and investor.

While some books (such as Coulson’s An Insider’s Guide to the Mining Sector) focus on one particular commodity this book (Global Mining Investing) attempts (and does well) to cover all types of mining and commodities.

Nickel stockpiles flat, and prices off their low

Nickel stockpiles are currently consolidating at a 1-year high, and I do believe that prices have found a floor, though I dont see it as time to enter this market just yet until stockpiles start falling. Prices seem likely to respond soon enough since they are close to their lows.

As we can see in this 5yr chart, nickel prices are consolidating at current levels (right chart)

Copper prices up, stockpiles falling

There is some good news in the market for copper stocks, as copper prices are up to $US3.50/lb, and seem destined to reach $US3.75/lb before they are sold off. The reason for the rise is clearly stronger demand, but also traders in futures covering short term requirements. Mostly its just technical trading. I see copper trading this range for a year to come.
Stockpiles are falling as a result - in fact stocks are plummeting on the LME. See Kitco.
The copper price like alot of commodities is trading in an ascending wedge, and will eventually break out as a result of inflation or debasement of the USD.

Copper prices reach new high

Copper prices have broken out to fresh highs, in fact copper prices are up almost 3% at this point to $US3.40/lb, though I expect prices will pull back to support at $US3.30/lb in coming days. See the charts at http://www.kitcometals.com/charts/copper_historical.html. The UK Bank of England has followed the Fed by cutting rates. The prices have limited upside. I dont see prices breaking $3.90/lb, but we can expect institutions to trade the metal between $2.90-3.80/lb. So I see the metal going sideways for some time to come, but with good rallies.
Basically we are looking at copper forming an ascending wedge structure with the apex to be reached in a year or so. I can see it breaking out at that point due to inflation and a weak USD, but I can also see higher interest rates undermining the copper price at some point. The other emerging trend will be the amount of money doing into new mine development around the world. I see this step as a currency management policy to some extent correct the over-investment in US treasury notes (ie. A falling USD). That investment will eventually result in higher mine output whilst higher western inflation will eventually undermine western consumption.

Japan Foreclosed Property 2015-2016 - Buy this 5th edition report!

Over the years, this ebook has been enhanced with additional research to offer a comprehensive appraisal of the Japanese foreclosed property market, as well as offering economic and industry analysis. The author travels to Japan regularly to keep abreast of the local market conditions, and has purchased several foreclosed properties, as well as bidding on others. Japan is one of the few markets offering high-yielding property investment opportunities. Contrary to the 'rural depopulation' scepticism, the urban centres are growing, and they have always been a magnet for expatriates in Asia. Japan is a place where expats, investors (big or small) can make highly profitable real estate investments. Japan is a large market, with a plethora of cheap properties up for tender by the courts. Few other Western nations offer such cheap property so close to major infrastructure. Japan is unique in this respect, and it offers such a different life experience, which also makes it special. There is a plethora of property is depopulating rural areas, however there are fortnightly tenders offering plenty of property in Japan's cities as well. I bought a dormitory 1hr from Tokyo for just $US30,000.
You can view foreclosed properties listed for as little as $US10,000 in Japan thanks to depopulation and a culture that is geared towards working for the state. I bought foreclosed properties in Japan and now I reveal all in our expanded 350+page report. The information you need to know, strategies to apply, where to get help, and the tools to use. We even help you avoid the tsunami and nuclear risks since I was a geologist/mining finance analyst in a past life. Check out the "feedback" in our blog for stories of success by customers of our previous reports.
