Kerry,

I think you need some thicker skin or maybe lay off the 'cocaine,' it's making you paranoid.

I don't think WG is bashing, he's simply offering a lower-risk exposure to Copper Fox in the form of Teck. Is Teck immune to a global economic decline? Of course not. But where will you lose out more? At least Teck pays dividends (as previously mentioned though curiously ignored), which should help offset a decline in share price given an economic downturn. As with any investment vehicle, risk and return are inversely proportional and diversifying your risk is healthier than betting it all on one ticket.
