SOUTHERN COPPER CORP COM SCCO: NYSE



“At the very basic level, a market can only do two things: trend or consolidate. When trending, instead of worrying when the trend will turn/change, go with it. Assume the trend to be intact until proven otherwise. Innocent until proven guilty!”

Cooper prices are decidedly in an uptrend the last 3 months, so are the shares of SCCO.







Short figures are inconclusive
Company                 8/15/17                   7/31/17                   Chg          % Chg      % Float    Days to cover          Avg daily
Southern Copper     5,904,510                6,145,079                -240,569 -3.9          7.2           7                              792,112
 
Five years cooper prices shows a downtrend until around half 2015, then a small consolidation followed by what appears to be the starting of an uptrend.



SCCO is trading at its five year high.


 

Good riddance Irma

UNILEVER PLC SPON ADR NEW UL: NYSE



As we are getting ready for Irma here in D.R. this stock looks capable of withstanding any hurricane. The 73 billion market cap-consumer goods Unilever behaved quite well against the SP fall of past days. While the SP500 dropped 2% from August 7 to Aug 18, taking with it all kind of stocks, UL stayed in that period basically flat.




As of this time today UL is making a mini-break to the upside.





Dividend Yield   2.54%
Next Earnings Date 10/19/17
Avg Volume (10 days)    967,445

Almost nobody believes UL is a short candidate

I always look at the balance sheet taking out intangibles and goodwill, UL is moderately leveraged but still they produce plenty of cash.
