      Lundin Mining: Unearthing Big Gains from the Commodity 'Supercycle'
      LMC is merging w/Hudbay Minerals. I think it is pretty much a done deal. Each share of LMC is worth .39 HBM. Good deal for HBM which bought a lot of temporarily depreciated assets.

      Credit Markets and the Price of Gold

      Is China BAK Battery More Attractive After Warren Buffett's Investment in BYD?
      My understanding is that GM wants to warrant their car batteries for 10 years. Such a battery doesn't exist right now.

      The Great American Sellout - Cramer's Stop Trading! (7/15/08)
      Cheap dollar, discounted future earnings, anticipated foreign purchases of US companies is about the only reason not to be 100% in cash or commodities (depending on ur risk tolerance).

      Solution to the Global Petroleum Crisis
      Why doesn't the U.S. agree to build and run nuclear power plants in countries around the world? Eventually China Japan or Russia will start doing it.
