The broader market I think is near its bottom, but since I have a fetish for mining stocks I wanted to draw these particular mining stocks to you. Mincor has been a great performer over the last few years. It has sunk considerably as a result of falling nickel prices. In this market it seems destined to fall to its support level of $1.00. Its well off that currently, so some patience is required. You might question why I think its going to get there. The reasons:
1. The broader market will strengthen
2. Commodity prices are going to weaken
3. Mincor is destined to release some poor profit results and projections based on the current weak prices.
These factors are destined to cause the worst possible sentiments towards the stock, thus providing the best possible conditions to buy. You just need to wait for the bottom. As you can see the stock has broken its $1.50 support. There is another support around $1.25, but I think this stock might be going down to $1.00 since that is the strongest support. This is a long term chart, so give it time. It might only got down to that level during intra-day trading, but such strong supports tend to be reached. It was of course once a fairly strong resistance.
