SCFC, I know there would be a loss if I sold some of my Glen holding but the way I see it all I would be doing is transferring position at the same price apart from the .5% stamp and my trade cost, KAZ is just as volatile as GLEN and they do move in the same direction over a period of time but I think KAZ is in a better position at this moment in time..
looking at the stats on KAZ with reference to share price gains going back over 12 months KAZ appears to have a much superior share price gain.
The other thing is that KAZ is a pure play copper miner and GLEN relies on Zinc quite heavily, Zinc has an oversupply at the moment so this will drag on Glen as well as them cutting coal production along with the baggage of the DOJ investigations.
SCFC, the way I look at it sometimes you have to take a loss to improve your position in the market which at the moment is pretty feked up, so all im trying to do is hedge my bets and I don't doubt GLEN will be back up above my average buy in price within the not to distant future but hope KAZ will improve in price a bit quicker.
By the way the iron ore price is well up in last 24 hrs so this is giving RIO BHP AAL good support and I feel is the reason they're up today.
