Resources Rock

Resources Rock is an easy-to-read introduction to the resource sector as it gears up to take off for the first time in over two decades. Readers will learn how to invest in natural resource stocks, including diamonds, gold, base metals, oil and gas, forestry and fertiliser companies. For years, the average prices of shares in resource sector stocks, for everything from gold to diamonds to forest products, have been at record low levels. But it's not going to stay that way forever. North American and European economies are showing signs of making a long-awaited rebound in 2004, so manufacturers will have to start buying raw resources as fast as they can in order to meet the needs of their customers. At the same time, emerging economies such as India and China are going to be consuming resources at a faster rate than developed countries just to meet the demands of their own rapidly growing industries. Resources Rock will ensure that readers will be well-positioned to cash in on the coming global boom in natural resources by explaining why 2004 is the best time in decades to invest in this sector.
