- Henry: $FCX HSBC Downgraded but raised the pt to $46 Thanks for nuthin'
- traderbren: @Henry $FCX - LOL, typical Penguin move!
- traderbren: $SCCO and $FCX - both providing entries here - if you're looking for more of an investment versus a trade.
- champ: $NAIL $URI $HRI $HOV $LGIH $OC $BLDR $EXP $SMCI $LEU $CPA $VIK $NCLH $FCX $KNF $PLTR $GRRR $AI $LBRT $KMI $VG $JOBY $ACHR $TQQQ $TNA............these are my swing Investment positions and I'm planning on holding most into 2026. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I took profits on $SPXL $GTLS and $FLS and that appears to be mistakes.....but I might buy them back.
- joelsg1: $TSLA Idiotic tariff uncertainty about copper hurts $TSLA and other EV makers which use copper in batteries, wiring and rotors, about 80-100 lbs. per vehicle, also in Powerwalls. Obvious US-based copper supplier is $FCX, which Stifel raised to $56, but not up today. Maybe it's more TACO unless/until the Courts block this overreach. But in the meantime, think $TSLA could surprise with commentary on E call 7/23 now that Q2 delivery numbers are out and with strong demand in Q3 for the new Y everywhere, Grok being added to vehicle and with pull-forward in US with $7500 credit expiring 9/30. Now below 200d toward lower part of $275-375 range where I may sell downside puts and/or add.
- woodman: @joelsg1 $TSLA $FCX - Grok getting pounded around the world for its anti-semetic answers, among other things. Not something I need to hear in my car. But you're right on the mark with the copper needed for EV vehicles. The passed budget bill, in addition, is pretty unfriendly to green energy in general and EV vehicles specifically. Combined with tariffs and Musk's off the rails relationship with Trump....
- joelsg1: @woodman $TSLA $FCX I use Grok alot since it's still free and haven't experienced that, but maybe not asking the right queries. Don't know how one would program that. There's a new version Grok 4 coming out FWIW.
- champ: $FCX.....P-Trump just bounced copper, 20 minutes ago, he said that they were working on copper today.....Boom. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- champ: $FCX...the U.S. is going to try to save, all of our U.S. Copper mines, so they can go in and mine ....larger production, here in the U.S. for all of our U.S. Copper products, for all of our Energy and Military needs. ....The U.S. needs to open-up more U.S. mines, for the U.S. supply chain. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This was only a Day-trade, not really a swing trade....Yet...because this is not a U.S. company. .
- mopick: @champ $FCX, it is an American company, based in Phoenix
- champ: @mopick $FCX .....does it have any U.S. copper mines...?? and if it doesn't it will soon. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- DavidK: @woodman what USA company mines copper ? $FCX is USA based and southern Cooper all I see thru Grok
- DavidK: @champ $FCX https://x.com/i/grok/share/Asi4xHI8Jma24308hQ8fVPp2U copper company search on Grok
- joelsg1: @DavidK $FCX Gotta love Grok. Still free and an update this week.
- champ: @DavidK $FCX ....Thanks, because I got back-in and now I'm going to swing, my 400 shares.
- mopick: @champ $FCX, they have mines through out the world, including mines in AZ and NM.
- champ: @mopick $FCX ...Thanks...I didn't know that....and I did get back-in, for a swing, when it fell back. `````````````````
- DavidK: @joelsg1 $FCX it’s my go to for quick answers . Grok that is !
- oldmaratom: @mopick $FCX # FCX is owned by Grupo Mexico!
- champ: $FCX...back-in again at $46.31, for a Spec-swing
- champ: @oldmaratom $FCX ....As of February 2025, this company is currently #exempt from any U.S. Tariffs, per The U.S. Secretary of Commerce, pending a U.S. investigation, as of Now. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Boogie: $FCX $SCCO $CPER Copper all time high. $FCX and $SCCO testing their 200 day avg at open.
- traderbren: $FCX - could provide a low-risk entry here
- ZMan2: $FCX RPs earnings Tue morning Oct 22 before the bell.
- woodman: #Copper $HBM $SCCO $IE $TGB $FCX $ERO $MTAL - rippers.
- ZMan2: $FCX is up 6% & 10% above it 50 Day today on new China stimulus plan.
- traderbren: $FCX - getting a bid...above the 50d and working on the 200d
- otoolem5175: $FCX #Double bottom recovery? Looks like this may be coming off a double bottom filling the gaps with 5 days of higher volume and climbing after a death cross. Took an early starter position at $41.72 several days ago with a stop at $40. If it advances past $45 maybe it could run to $54..
- Onthemark: $FCX Now above the 200d.
- Wolf: $FCX sitting just below the 200 DMA, $GOLD sitting just below the 20 DMA. Gold should be strong with interest rate cuts. No position.
- traderbren: $FCX - providing a low risk entry here... as it creeps above the 50d
- sierramp: Copper isn't pretty today $FCX $ERO
- woodman: @sierramp $FCX $ERO - sold my $HBM.
- sierramp: @woodman $FCX $ERO $HBM Out of my $FCX too when it broke the 50D.
- debeers: $AAPL-China numbers ok and big event in a few-New so did 1/2, $ANF, $CRWD own 1/2 of what i want, $DELL, $DKS baseball, basketball then preseason football, $FCX-if we are in a recession it will do better than SCCO, $NVDA- juist added a singleshare a buck off the low. I want an oil and would love to get back into $MTDR but, of course, its hard for me to know where- @Scottrades- could you help me with this? Thanks in advance.
- Wolf: $FCX Higher low. Looking for rebound in gold. Starter position, stop just below prior low.
- BarryC: Hi everyone, GM!! I'm currently #Long: $AVCA, BVN, $CVNA, $DELL, $FCX, $GNRC, $MRK, $MU, $PTSG, $RDDT, $SMTC & $URA I also have some JUNK $GME

- PhilHarmonic: @BarryC $AVCA $CVNA $DELL $FCX $GNRC $MRK $MU $PTSG $RDDT $SMTC $URA $GME #Long Wishing you good luck with your basket of stocks. I like all of them.
- BarryC: @PhilHarmonic $AVCA $CVNA $DELL $FCX $GNRC $MRK $MU $PTSG $RDDT $SMTC $URA $GME #Long Ty sir... I have STOPS in place and will NOT THINK one iota, They either go UP or I get stopped. Strict Plan! :-)
- sierramp: Copper not working well today $FCX $HBM
- woodman: @sierramp $FCX $HBM - Looks like HBM could fall to the 20dSMA/21dEMA area ($9.05-$9.10), which also is the top of the gap when it gapped-up on 5/14 (i.e. the intraday low of 5/14).
- wjj3: @sierramp $FCX $HBM no kidding Doctor coper down 5%
- woodman: @wjj3 $FCX $HBM - I sold most of my HBM. Will look to buy back when it finds support.
- sierramp: @wjj3 $FCX $HBM and this drop the day after news that copper will be a beneficiary of AI build out.
- BarryC: Hi Everyone, Im currently #Long: $ACVA, $CFG, CVNA, $DELL, $FCX, $MRK, $MU, $LWL, $PSTG $RDDT & $URA. Also have some PURE JUNK $GME
- BarryC: Hi everyone, Im currently #Long: $CFG, $CVNA, $DELL, $FCX, $MRK, $MU, PTSG & $RDDT also have some (small) JUNK $GME
- champ: @BarryC $FCX...#Great-move on your Buy at around 49-$50....because the News-flow on the price of Copper is strong, could Watch $TECK also, the Race is on...... ...and so is Risk-on. Good Luck! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- BarryC: @champ $FCX $TECK #Great-move Thx bro.... I really just stick to the Chart and DON'T overthink.
- champ: @BarryC $FCX $TECK #Great-move...Exactly don't over-Think and the News is, the price of Copper is Breaking-out and it could continue because #China is buying copper... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Wolf: @champ $FCX $TECK #Great-move #China Also #Gold is at the top of the range on average volume. They do both.
- BarryC: Good Morning!! Been a bit MIA, haven't been pressing much, Sorry.... I'm currently #Long: $CFG, $DELL, $FCX, $MRK, $MU, $PTSG & $RDDT I also have a little $GME pure JUNK
- cgendro1: $FCX- moving above about a 4wk consolidation
- woodman: @cgendro1 $FCX - $HBM has been my primary copper stock. It's performed very well. Also been in $ERO. HBM provided a nice earnings report this morning. I held my shares through. HudBay Minerals (HBM) reported earnings of $0.16 per share on revenue of $524.99 million for the first quarter ended March 2024. The consensus earnings estimate was $0.03 per share on revenue of $463.69 million. The Earnings Whisper number was $0.05 per share. The company beat expectations by 220.00% while revenue grew 77.83% on a year-over-year basis. HudBay Minerals Inc is an integrated mining company. With assets in North and South America, it produces copper concentrate and zinc metal and is focused on the discovery, production and marketing of base and precious metals.
- cgendro1: @woodman $FCX $HBM $ERO Nice! Will track $HBM. Took a small position on the pb from today's high
- woodman: @cgendro1 $FCX $HBM $ERO - it's really hard to buy a stock on a day that it rips like this, but do keep $HBM on your radar for when it comes back to earth/moving averages catch up.
- tnt: $FCX intraday 5 minute cup with handle and a tight bullish symmetrical triangle on daily chart with strong $XME $GLD tailwind.
- champ: $FCX...large drop and this is what can happen when we are in any stock, that has commodity risk because the #swing-Risk is much higher, when the stock is in the commodity sector. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- BarryC: @champ $FCX #swing-Risk not sure I agree with the "large drop" definition.... Im long and it's still in the upper end of the range (at the moment). At least that's what I see.
- champ: @BarryC $FCX #swing-Risk ...My post was only about the over-night swing-risk, from the close to the open. Good Luck! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- BarryC: I bot some $FCX
- gklee01: @BarryC $FCX Thanks for reminding me about this. It finally broke above that high from 2022 that Scott talked about in one of his videos a few weeks/months back.
- woodman: #Copper has been back on the upswing. $FCX $SCCO have made their ways back to recent highs. $HBM, which I've just been holding since beginning of the month, never pulled back. It just drifted to the 20d. I'm still in $ERO as well (I held it and HBM over my vacation). ERO pulled back decently to the 50d but moved right back up.
- traderbren: @woodman $FCX $SCCO $HBM $ERO #Copper - yep, copper has been on a run of late. Still holding May calls on $FCX and will be looking to roll them up & out soon. I do like $SCCO too but decided to go with $FCX when it pushed above the 20d and 8ema last week.
- woodman: #Copper. $HBM $ERO $SCCO $FCX $TGB
- woodman: #Copper $HBM $ERO $TGB $FCX $SCCO
- woodman: $TGB $HBM - too late to chase these #copper stocks, but they have been so strong. See also $SCCO $FCX $ERO
- curtis: @debeers $FCX (Copper is more of an EV play now days)
- Henry: $SCCO $FCX on a tear, reports China is going to reduce production of copper and the price will rise.
- debeers: $FCX- Appologies for having forgotten to put this one in the list. IF HOUSING IS RECOVERING THEN COPPER PIPING
- debeers: THE WHY OF THE $FCX BUY- CHINESE SMELTERS -WHO PRODUCE 1/2 OF ALL THE WORLD'S COPPER-agree to cut production.
- Henry: @debeers $FCX .You are such an old fashioned girl.🥰 It's PVC these days.
- Margi1983: @debeers $FCX But these days many residential homes use polyethylene piping for hot/cold supply and PVC for drains. Lot less copper from when we grew up.
- debeers: @Margi1983 $FCX -@Margi- can we at least agree that the Celtics are terrific??
- X802tp01: @debeers also buying copper but using $SCCO instead of $FCX. Wish us luck!
- Jeffg: @debeers $FCX Neighbor stated his very large remodel ( almost a tear down ) has over a mile of Romex wiring ...copper wire in the sheath
- vitoB: @DAN $FCX or $KGC.....thanks
- vitoB: $FCX still placehohlder but added a little more, very small, dont like the gap all the way down to 38.76, but think Cu is ready to come out of this base
- vitoB: follow through on $FCX, above ke ma's
- vitoB: placeholder in $FCX
- scottrades: My notes: $SPY Trend is fine $QQQ Trend is fine $IWM 50 Day Support $TNX Watching $DXY Above the 200 Day $SMH Extended but working $XLK In trend $XLB New 2024 High $XBI New 2024 High $XLE Attempting a trend change $GLD Clear slope $AMD at the 8EMA $PANW Rebound $XOM Tightening up $ELF Working $ISRG Working $MSTR At the 8EMA $COIN Same $CELH Cup $SPOT Good if you’re long $FCX Tightening up $NEU Near the highs $DOW Watch for a PB

maracom: ...
- I got shaken out of $FCX at the 200sma and missed the gap up. Sad but there's a good chance I'll get the chance to buy again at the breakout level.
-Energy has had a good bounce. I like staying in energy for the dividends and for the geo-politica ... - bill52: $FCX huge day for dr. copper. big volume with it as well.
- maracom: Good morning all! I put my $NVDA Dec 460/450 bear call spread back on now that earnings has passed with a flat response. My logic is if slowing guidance is enough to overcome blowing out the revenue expectations, then it seems like institutions are foreseeing less rapid growth which therefore lowers the growth premium, but we do have the christmas rally coming up so I may be wrong again. $GLD is holding it's gap despite a bounce in the dollar today. $XLE back under pressure today. I want to cost average back into some more energy in my #LTA but I think there's still time for the pullback to run its course towards lower prices. #Trading: Long $WPM $UNG $EWZ Short: $NVDA $KRE #LTA: Long $BIL $NEM $SLV $DVN $FCX
- maracom: Good morning all! #preciousmetals popping today. $NVDA at ATM is the big news (I closed my BePS for a 11% loss) but $GLD is also back at ATH and the mining stocks are surging today. I'm wayyyy overweight $WPM and $NEM. $UUP coming up on the 100sma, $TLT coming back up. #Trading: Long $WPM $UNG $EWZ Short: $KRE (long Dec $43 puts) -One more day of patience on $UNG would have been prudent, it's testing the summer lows today -$EWZ gapped and is now extended, sold some covered calls. #LTA: Long $BIL $NEM $SLV $DVN $FCX -$FCX recaptured the 50sma -Waiting patiently for $CTRA to tap the 200sma -Out of $FTI for now, need to see a higher daily low print before I'll go back in
- maracom: Good morning all! $FTI pullback yesterday spooked me a bit because of it's magnitude, so I sold off my remaining shares today but I'll keep an eye on a low risk re-entry point. $NVDA is resting below 500, looks like earnings will make the decision. I'm within a few percent of breakeven so I'll probably wait for Monday but will likely close my BePS down before earnings. Retail popping off lately, seems to be some bullish sentiment regarding holiday shopping. #Trading: Long $WPM $UNG $EWZ Short: $NVDA (460/450 Dec BePS) $KRE (long Dec $43 puts) #LTA: Long $BIL $NEM $SLV $DVN $FCX -$FCX retesting the 50d from below. We already know energy is under pressure and that recession expectations are durable. Dr. Copper will give us more macro insight soon.
- maracom: Good morning all! Energy still pulling back, as expected. Stopped out of a $FTI partial but I'm eager for a chance to sell some $CTRA naked puts. $UUP weak again, #preciousmetals having another good day. #optionsexpiration tomorrow may lead to some bearish swings as well #Trading: Long $WPM $UNG $EWZ Short: $NVDA (460/450 Dec BePS) $KRE (long Dec $43 puts) #LTA: Long $BIL $NEM $SLV $DVN $FTI $FCX - Stopped out a $FTI partial, possible head and shoulders forming. It's been a powerhouse but today is a big shot across the bow, and I'd rather move to the sidelines and wait for more price data. -Planning to re-enter $CTRA soon, watching for a retest of the 200 and recenty lows to sell a naked put.

maracom: ...
#LTA: Long $BIL $NEM $SLV $DVN $FTI $FCX
- Copper still under pressure, highlighting China and threat of US recession so I'm still selling covered calls on $FCX

maracom: ...
#LTA: Long $DVN $FTI $FCX $NEM - maracom: Good morning all! Nice to see the $SPY $SPX bouce at the Feb/April highs support line. I might consider going long $SSO but with big tech earnings this week I think I'll just stick to playing the $TLT for a reversion to the mean. #Gold and #Oil are having reversions to the 20day. #Natgas looking interesting opening right around friday's open, two opens at the same level, I think I'll buy some more. #Trading: Long: $UNG $WPM $COIN Long calls: $TLT Nov $86 -$UNG added another 1/5 position, now at of 3/5 a full position -$WPM raising my stop to $42.8 to protect profits #LTA: $DVN $FTI $FCX $NEM $GLD $SLV $BIL
- maracom: Good morning all! Sorry I haven't been posting, been doing OT at work and putting in hours on the remodel. $GLD chart has been explosive, as expected when geopolitics heats up. Due for a pause but we're gonna be attacking the all time highs again very soon, I've bought multiple times in the last week and a half and I'm very overweight precious metals right now. #Trading: Long $NUGT $WPM $UNG $COIN, Short $SDS -Booked profit on $SDS and $NUGT this morning before the weekend -Had a $8 covered call on $UNG that will expire worthless -$UNG is just getting started, seasonality will be kicking in into the end of the year -Follwing @Scottrades with a $COIN starter #LTA: $DVN $FTI $FCX $NEM $GLD $SLV -Half positions in $DVN and $FTI. -$FCX reported good earnings but is still under pressure from decreasing demand in China for copper.
- maracom: My remaining (small) portfolio is having a 3% day, guess the shorts decided not to carry into the weekend #Trading: Long $UNG $WPM #LTA: Long $NEM $FCX $SLV $DVN
- maracom: Good morning all! $XLE broke hard yesterday, I'm pretty much out of energy except for $UNG which is starting to show signs of life. There could be some other bounce trades out there but I'm not seeing anything too tempting, maybe a $TLT long call for a reversion to the mean trade. Seems like the default move to hide in tech is the main play right now but I'm still uninterested. Main thing I'm keeping an eye out for is a $UUP pullback #Trading: Long $UNG #LTA: Long $NEM $FCX $SLV, tiny $DVN placeholder
-
maracom: ...
#LTA: Long $FCX $NEM $DVN $SLV
- I'm likely to add to $SLV soon, looking for an hourly higher low today.
- $FCX really expected this to break down further but so far is showing some resilience
-$DVN I sold into the recent bounce, have a 25% position ... - maracom: Good morning all! Dollar surging again, precious metals taking it on the chin, which is really the only big position I have left. Even though they are down they are still behaving normally in response to the strong dollars, so I'm holding through. #Tankers still looking good today #Trading: Long: $EWZ $UNG $WPM $TNK #LTA: Long: $DVN $FCX $NEM $SLV $DVN Lightening up on some $DVN here around the 8EMA $FCX In danger of free falling, but hasn't started just yet. #Watching $CF which is pulling back today. $RIVN put in a higher low and had a good day yesterday despite the tape
- maracom: Good morning all! Booked a little $SQQQ profit, probably too early as usual... The generals (Sevastopol admirals?) are still being taken out back and disposed of... $AMZN breaking the 100, $GOOGL breaking the 50. Same story on $TLT and $UUP #Trading: Long: $EWZ $UNG $WPM #LTA: Long: $DVN $FCX $NEM $SLV $DVN Next support $45.3 $FCX In danger of free falling, but hasn't started just yet. #Watching $CF nice pattern, is up against resistance from early 2023, will look for a small Phase 2 to pick up a starter to replace $MOS. $CTRA pausing at the 100sma, expecting a downward move again to the 200 when the 8 EMA catches up. Might get back in if it recaptures the 8ema. $URA $OII showing some strength but doesn't look like a breakout yet
- maracom: Good morning all! Much as I support reducing the federal budget, I don't like my investment accounts to be at the mercy of the competence of Congress, so I'm still in 75% cash, leaning more short than anything else. $UUP still up, $TLT still down, institutions still raising cash as well. But if the FBI wants to offload some Mendez gold, I'd consider buying... #Trading: Long: $EWZ $UNG $WPM Short: $SQQQ Booked some $SQQQ profit at 20.7, still have a starter #LTA: Long: $DVN $FCX $NEM $SLV $DVN Next support $45.3 $FCX In danger of free falling, but hasn't started just yet. #Watching #CF up while the other fertilizer stockers are down #DOW refined oil products play, got an upgrade today #URA #OII
