"Buy When There's Blood In The Streets" - Baron Rothschild.
Ouch, the current turmoil in commodities (i.e. oil, gas, gold, copper, etc) is painful to watch. My holdings in this sector is down 30-70% and the bottom is nowhere in sight.
One of the biggest loser so far is Freeport-McMoRan Inc (NYSE:
FCX), a natural resource company primarily in copper.
Recent slowdown and worries in China's economy has contributed to lower copper prices because they are the main consumer (~40% global demand).
Unless we see some some stability in China and global energy prices, this will continue to be a painful commodity stock holding.
