MOLY: The Next Sector to Rock!

Mike Hoy
Sep 27, 2005

For those of you who haven't noticed; it appears that the price of Molybdenum (moly) is on the move and the funny thing is, it is moving in the opposite direction of what most of the analysts and newsletter writers have predicted. HOW CAN THAT BE? How can they be wrong about a base metal that has skyrocketed in price by more than 12 X in the last 3 years? Funny thing about this is the fact that it is not really their fault that they have been on the wrong side of the price movement with their predictions.

Moly is one of the most unknown and mis-understood base metals in the world today. This metal is unquestionably the metal of the 21st century. Not only is it the metal of the 21st century but very few individuals, investors, newsletter writers and even companies that produce moly have a clue to the importance that moly will play in shaping the rest of our lives and the lives of generations to come.

The best part about this is the fact that we, as consumers, are going to be the big winners. Not only will the consumer be a huge winner but countries such as the US and China can now look at each other as partners in the development of crucial technology and power plants that will easily solve the world's energy problems and needs rather than fierce competitors for the worlds dwindling supplies of natural resources.

Think about it for a second! What better way to cool the world's frayed nerves than to come up with a solution to the world's energy crisis! Think of the possibility of buying gasoline at $1.50-$2.00/gallon again. Believe it or not there is a solution to the world's energy crisis and the technology has been around for decades! In fact this technology is now in the process of becoming a reality.

China and South Africa are working together to develop and build power plants that will liquify coal in a process that makes their vast reserves of coal economical and the finished product is burned pollution free. Think of what this means! Both the US and China can tell the oil producing nations, of the world, to go take a "high flying leap off their tallest oil rig." For the first time in years I have positive feelings about the future and I can see a way for the US to solve many of its pressing problems. Think of automobiles and power plants burning fuel that is virtually pollution free for a lot less than we pay for the same energy today! This technology will not only solve our energy crisis but it will also do wonders in solving the world's air pollution crisis and the threat of global warming.

I hope you are getting as excited as I am because from my standpoint I have searched for a very long time to find anything to be positive about in the world today. Not only does this give me something to cheer about but the timing cannot be better.

Now you have got to be asking yourself "how does moly fit in to this?" The answer to that is very simple but yet it has been kept a "BIG SECRET!" Very few people know or understand the fact that MOLY is the catalyst to clean the impurities out of the vast quantities of coal and stranded natural gas that exists in the world today. With moly as the catalyst there is very little doubt about the fact that the demand for moly can do anything but increase significantly over the years to come.

Very few newsletter writers, analysts or even producing moly companies understand the fact that the world of the 21st century cannot exist, in the manner that it will, without a much larger supply of moly than is available in the market today..

Without this knowledge there is no way that many of these very intelligent people could come to the conclusion that the price of moly could do anything but fall in price. That would be a logical and practical opinion to form.

For months newsletter writers and analysts have said that moly prices would fall below $15/lb. after peaking above $39/lb. For months end users of moly have waited for the pullback in price. Most of these end users felt that moly had no-where to go in price but down. As a result of this thinking these end users kept their inventories of moly at very low levels. They waited and hoped that the price of moly would fall. Moly did have a pullback; all the way to the meager level of $29/lb.

The funny thing about moly is the fact that moly, as a commodity, is not traded as a commodity on any of the publicly traded commodity exchanges. The important point to this is the fact that moly then has to trade on the basis of pure supply and demand. Pure supply and demand eliminates all the games and manipulation that is created by speculators, hedge funds and those who attempt to manipulate markets to their advantage.

Moly prices are now rising because the end users can wait no longer for the price to fall. The end users must buy to replenish inventories that do not exist and this, coupled with thin supplies, is the real reason why the price of moly is now rising. It has nothing to do with roasters or any other garbage that certain people and companies want you to believe. These naysayers have their own best interest at heart and they may be the ones who truly know what is going on behind the scene and doing everything they can to keep moly a big secret while they take full advantage to position themselves for the future.

Ken Reser recently posted a magnificent article called "The Big Secret!" I love this guy as I have learned so much from him in the short time that I have had the privilege of knowing and working with him. Ken is one of these guys who spends an incredible amount of time in the pursuit of knowledge and the truth. Ken is the first individual; I know of, to post an article revealing the importance that moly plays in the development of this new technology that literally is the "SAVIOR OF THE WORLD!"

Now that the truth is coming out; all these people, who have felt that moly prices would pull back, now have a perfectly good reason to alter their opinions! I believe we will read lots of articles, in the near future, from analysts and newsletter writers who have "flip-flopped" with their opinion on the future direction in the price of moly. Even Jim Cramer on "romper room" or excuse me I mean CNBC was talking about the positive future of the base metals and moly as one base metal in particular. In other words the rest of the investing world is beginning to stand up and take notice.

LOOK OUT WORLD BECAUSE HERE COMES MOLY AND THE MOLY STOCKS! I feel that moly, as a sector will outperform and give returns better than the oil and uranium sectors. After all why mess with uranium and the consequences of the liabilities and cleaning the messes it leaves behind when you can burn pollution-free coal and stranded natural gas FOR A LOT LESS THAN IT COSTS TODAY TO FILL OUR CARS AND HEAT OUR HOMES.

With the vast quantities of coal and stranded natural gas that exists in the world today the US and the rest of the world can become completely independent in the development and supplies OF THEIR OWN NATURAL RESOURCES FOR CENTURIES TO COME. Wouldn't this be an absolutely wonderful feeling and position to be in for the rest of our lives and the lives of generations to come? Wouldn't it be great to leave our children and grandchildren something to be proud of? Isn't it about time for the people of the world to stand up and demand that attention and vast amounts of capital be spent on the development of this absolutely necessary and timely power and technology!

For those of you who believe that a recession or depression is eminent, after the hyperinflation, and the resulting slowdown will change the demand for moly; I ask you to think about this. What will the government do when the economy comes to a standstill?

I believe that our government will do exactly what they did in the depression of the 30's; except this time the money will be spent to completely realign our energy industry. I believe they will create vast quantities of jobs that will put the people back to work. I also believe these jobs will be of the same nature that existed in the 30's when The Hoover Dam was built. I believe power plants across the country will be built and these power plants will run on coal and stranded natural gas using vast quantities of moly as a catalyst to clean the impurities.

In other words I believe a slowdown in the US could create a greater demand for moly as a result of the money being spent in a manner that puts people back to work and at the same time solves our great countries energy and pollution needs with all the problems that go with it! This would take negative, short term, economic times and transfer that pain into long term growth and gain for future generations to come.

Yeah I'm pumped and for the first time in a very long time I'm very optimistic that we can now turn the corner and bring this country back to the status it once held. I believe this will be a very long and slow process but at least it is a start and I have absolutely no problem sharing that seat with developing countries like China. THERE IS LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL! You know; I'm beginning to feel good; I only hope our elected officials get the point real quick.
