Buyer Beware

October. This is one of the peculiarly dangerous months to speculate in stocks. Other dangerous months are July, January, September, April, November, May, March, June, December, August and February.

Copper rises on upbeat U.S. data - The Globe and Mail

Copper has already doubled this year so is it buy on anticipation, sell on news?  Or is copper price action indicating better times to come for Economies?

"Latest figures for retail sales are better than expected, undergird hopes of economic recovery
Data showing that New York State manufacturing activity hit a near two-year high in September and a report showing prices received by U.S. producers up at a faster-than-expected rate last month bolstered optimism about the economy.

Copper prices have more than doubled this year, boosted primarily by record imports from China, strong speculative interest and macro-economic data signalling a possible recovery."
