Canadian takeout- Novelis. Does this spark sector on Monday? CENX a nice play can be a mover and shaker I'd be out before earnings Feb 20 they booted the last one. (I know I was there holding the bag). KALU out of bankruptcy, ready to be sold? Any other Aluminum ideas-? Normally I wouldn't use a takeout as a reason to accumulate a sector but they've been a few in the Aluminum space. Gold running up also is a wind to our back- it indicates a leg up perhaps for all these plays anyway-
Don't you know runningman-I'm already in that one a bit already! But you know what? You're right- why dick around? I should just go harder on ACH it's a lovely story.....
Just my humble .02, but metals are overdone, unless you assume infrastructure growth at a higher rate than what's occurred in the last 5 years. That's a stretch, IMO. ACH has also had massive share dillution through splits.
Wow that didn't take long! Alcoa shares rally on report it's a bid target Marketwatch - February 13, 2007 8:35 AM ET Related Quotes Symbol Last Chg AA Trade 32.90 0.00 BHP Trade 44.01 0.00 NVL Trade 43.67 0.00 RTP Trade 210.43 0.00 Real time quote. NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Shares in Alcoa Inc. leapt as much as 10% in premarket trading Tuesday after a report that mining giants BHP Billiton and Rio Tinto are each contemplating bids for the Pittsburgh-based aluminum producer, which is valued at more than $28 billion. Everybody wants in on the Alluminum!
Lehman hit AA with an intraday downgrade. BUT Stoney made a nice call 2 days ago on the Aluminum stocks. If anyone bought AA or AL, it would've been a nice quick profit.
Definitely. Great short term trading. I'd take the money and run, though. There's a lot more negative news about to hit about metric ton aluminum pricing according to Bloomberg.
Damn you silent ETers' I know you are out there. I know you are listening. I know you are buying. ACH tags more new session & 9 month highs KALU (monday $72- Tues $76) Gain > $4 CENX (monday $46- Tues $48) Gain > $2 >>> Why should Stoney race to post his ideas if you don't respond with kindness?
