Question asked

Should I take profit on FMG?

“Team--Thanks yet again for your work-profitable, even in such an ordinary year --and easy to follow. May be already done (I have been out of action for a week or so), but could you pass an opinion on the best thing to do for those of us holding iron ore stocks--particularly FMG, which I’m currently showing 170% profit on? “Let your winners run” may be good advice (it has been for me) , but the China squabbling I’m sure has many investors in the space quite worried. Is it time to cash out of FMG et al and look to re-enter at a later date? -- or are there other overlooked factors in the iron ore market that make holding a wiser option?” - Merry Xmas to all, Paul A.

Answer

Morning Paul,

As we covered in the Weekend Report MM is bullish the Resources Sector and while we acknowledge the risk around China trade our view is the reflation theme will dominate over the next 1-2 years. Hence, we are far more comfortable buying weakness as opposed to selling strength, it’s very easy to lose a position by being too micro / short-term i.e. day to day noise is random but trends are meaningful.

MM remains bulllish Copper as part of the reflection trade
