I think by the time the recession hits the metals we will all be long gone and shall I say wealthy. I took out of the message that we are on the verge of a massive nickle area and lets not forget that Nickle prices in 1996 were much lower then current prices and well I do not have to remind you what DFR (Voisey bay) sold for. Those investors made lots (if they stuck with it) and the value of that deposit in todays dollars is 36B. I don't think we will need to worry about any metal recession in the near term. Don't worry I won't shoot you. This is a forum to discuss ideas rationally without insults.
