CZZ-More upside to follow through March January 06, 2010
The world sugar market continues to tighten and the bull story should not be complete until March. I continue to believe that there is more upside to come with this stock. I think current value is $12-$15 in the near term.
Once the sugar market comes back in balance around May 2010, this stock may consoidate for some time, but I think it is a buy long term as well. The long term play comes with the ethanol side of business. So, there is a short and long term opportunity here.

TCK-Teck Resources December 01, 2009
As a result of the outlook for metallurgical coal, I believe that TCK is well positioned to increase EPS through 2011. TCK has over 75% of its EBITA coming from coal and copper in 2010 and that trend should continue well into 2011. The demand for coal should continue to increase in the BRIC economies in the coming years as the recovery takes hold. I have a price target of $55 for TCK in 2010 with further increases coming in 2011.

The front page of today's Wall Street Journal has an article conerning the sugar market which is is currently undersupplied. India did not get the enough monsoon weather and Brazil is overly dry.
One of the purest plays on......
