Metals & mining (diversified) industry

Article Abstract:

The rise in the prices of copper and aluminum fueled upward movement in the stocks of diversified metal companies over 1994. Increased demand from overseas has helped metal companies prosper, despite the rising interest rates domestically, which could work to slow down demand in the US. However, the use of aluminum in cars should increase in 1995, improving demand for the metal in North America. Although stock prices might not increase much more in 1995, they should remain strong.

Metals & mining (diversified) industry

Article Abstract:

An oversupply was created when large amounts of Russian aluminum were marketed to the West. A Memorandum of Understanding temporarily closed down some global production capacity, but inventory decline has slowed. Demand should increase with a better economy. These stocks are subpar for the long term. Increased supply of copper will lower prices, and demand growth is hard to predict. These stocks are not timely in 1995 or for the next three to five years.

Metals & mining (diversified) industry

Article Abstract:

Earnings for the 1st qtr of 1995 were good for the aluminum industry, due to good fabricated product and primary metal prices. Aluminum stocks are timely for investors seeking dividends, but not price appreciation. Copper prices are expected to weaken in 1996 with added copper supplies, but increased demand will strengthen the industry by 1998-2000. Phelps Dodge is the most attractive stock for capital gains for the next three to five years.
