Either engine on and motor or try to sail it as best as possible. We normally do a mixture of both because a) with little or no electricity available we have to charge the batteries during a passage or when stationery and b) we want to get to the next destination and enjoy it as much as possible.

By expiry, Nifty may be either at 5500 or 6100: Udayan
Chances are high that by the time the markets head for expiry next week, Nifty would be either at 6,100 or at 5,500. So a good 300 point swing on either side is quite likely depending on how the events pan out
Udayan Mukherjee (more)
Consulting Editor, CNBC-TV18 |
He feels one should watch out for today's afternoon session, the last one hour of trade today, because the markets have a habit of preempting events.
Also Read: Nifty may hit 6100 on favourable Fed & RBI decision: Udayan
Below is the verbatim transcript of Udayan Mukherjee's analysis
If we analyse the internals of the last few days, the key one which stands out is that volumes have dipped off quite alarmingly over the last couple of days. That is not surprising ahead of fairly important events. The market has become very range bound. That also is not surprising. So I think trader activity has died down quite a bit. Also tying in with the fact that FII flows while they remain in positive terrain, they have also diminished in magnitude a little bit over the last couple of days.
There has been some sector rotation but the key things are that volumes are drying off, FII participation is waning and that tells you that this may well be the calm before the storm. We have had three very range bound kind of sessions, I don't think it will continue like this, chances are very high that by the time we head for expiry next week, the Nifty would be either at 6,100 or at 5,500. So I think there is a good 300 point swing on either side, which is quite likely and possible depending on how the events pan out and the market has paused before these events over the last three days.
However, I would watch out for today's afternoon session because while all of us think that the markets will pause and wait and react after the event, the markets have a habit of preempting events and therefore for right or wrong, sometimes they get it wrong but they will try and make a move just before the event. So the last one hour of trade today even if we get up to a flattish kind of stand, will be quite interesting.
On market performance today
Right now it is one of those junctures where discipline is going to be far more important for a trader than having a view. It is not your predictive ability at this point going into very important events because you could get it wrong on what the Fed says or what the RBI has to say.
It is not about being able to predict the markets correctly at this juncture which is more important, it is your discipline which is more important. So, you could have a position and most traders would still be carrying long positions because the Nifty over the last few days has not violated any typical stop losses that would have been kept by the long trader. Due to that, the positions would still be long in the market, but it is very important because we are about to see volatility pick up over the next few days quite clearly and discipline is going to be most important.
As a trader if you get your call right, you just need to pyramid your positions, add to positions if there is a breakout. If the market turns against you, you need to respect those stop losses that you have in place otherwise you could be staring at fairly deep losses or atleast wiping out of most of your profits quite immediately.
At this point you don't want to get caught into and therefore, what the market says tomorrow will be wrong. You just say I don't know what will happen, markets will make a big move, I just want to be sure that I don't make a mistake at this point and get saddled into a bad position. So, it is one of those junctures where the outcome is uncertain and therefore, discipline is far more important than having a very firm view on what might happen in the next 72 hours.

So this part is already fixed (maybe not in all apps but in pango-based apps at least)
But, it's not only the matter of fonts, rather language support which includes - fonts, input method (and maps), spell checker, openoffice langpack, kde langpack and language packs for various other applications.
So, how are we going to solve those things?

Next-Gen Linux Game Roundup
If you thought the Linux gaming world consisted of nethack, pp-racer, BZFlag, and well... fortune, you were wrong. Here's some next-gen Linux games that'll definitely make some waves:
I used to be fairly into Total Annihilation back in the day. It was one of the last real-time strategy games that I really spent a lot of time with. Well, someone has created a fully 3D RTS engine who's current goal is to run the content from Total Annihilation. In other words, it's a 3D remake of TA.
GalaxyMage is a turn-based 3D tactical RPG game (oops, "role-playing game game" - thanks for the correction) that's looking awfully cool, awfully fast.
Why does it rock?

U.K. House Prices Decline for a Third Month on 'Weak' Economy
U.K. house prices fell for a third month in September and will probably remain little changed into 2013 as the uncertain economic outlook constrains property demand, according to Halifax.
Values dropped 0.4 percent from the previous month to an average 159,486 pounds ($257,000), the mortgage unit of Lloyds Banking Group Plc (LLOY) said in a statement in London today. From a year earlier, values were down 1.1 percent, and Halifax said there has been a "slight deterioration in the trend recently."
Britain's property market remains under pressure as the economy struggles to recover from a recession and restrictions on lending make it harder to get mortgages. The Bank of England started a Funding for Lending plan in August to boost credit by giving banks access to cheaper funding.
"The generally weak economic climate remains a significant constraint on housing demand," Halifax economist Martin Ellis said. "We expect house prices to be broadly unchanged over the rest of this year and into 2013."
Over the past year, house prices have declined in seven months and increased in five, based on Halifax data. In the three months through September, prices fell 0.5 percent compared with the preceding three months, and were down 1.2 percent down on the same period in 2011.
The Bank of England will maintain its bond-purchase target at 375 billion pounds today, according to all 40 economists in a Bloomberg News survey. Policy makers will also leave their benchmark interest rate at a record-low 0.5 percent, all 50 economists said in a separate poll. The decisions will be announced at noon in London.

Good 3.3 /5 from 167 reviews
I guess a comfortable bed is something no one has heard of. Plywood would be an inprovement
The room was awful. The bathroom door did not close. The shower head did not work and to make things worse, the hand-held shower broke so there was water coming out of the bottom only. This happened the day before we left. The room's condition overall was depressing and deploring. The weather outside was on the cool side (not cold) the air condition was off throughout the hotel and the heater was on. When we went to bed we had to open the window to let a little air in and the noise was horrible. Lastly, when I logged in to check my reservation about three hours before departing. I find an email, sent that same day, telling me that my reservation had been cancelled because "they could not confirm my credit card" When I called to find out what had happened, neither Hotel.com nor the hotel in Madrid could give me an answer. They then made the reservation again and they charged me like a new reservation which was almost double. When I go to Madrid I spoken with them and explained that I had had that reservation for months and they cancelled it without contacting me for additional information, new card, etc. whatever the problem could have been and no one was able to tell me what had happened. They did not take that into consideration and I had the pay almost double the price. So no! We are not happy at all with the hotel and I would NEVER recommend it.
The area was close to the center of city. Room is small but clean.
closed to the stations and many visiting points are in walking distance. Very helpful and friendly front desk.
Great hotel on a street off of Gran Via, great location to walk to everything.

Bernie Sanders has erased Hillary Clinton's wide-lead for the Democratic presidential nomination, according to a new Reuters/Ipsos poll.
Ms Clinton still leads Mr Sanders 48 to 45 per cent among Democratic voters, after a strong showing in the Iowa caucuses. The survey polled 512 Americans on February 2 through 5.
The poll has a credibility interval of 5 percentage points.
The former secretary of state narrowly beat the Vermont senator in the Iowa caucuses but is expected to lose to him in New Hampshire. The two rivals clashed on Thursday night in their first one-on-one debate, reflecting the tightness of the race.
Nearly a quarter of Democrats and two-fifths of Independents say they are still not that familiar with Sanders. In comparison, Clinton has almost total name recognition among voters.
After his second-place finish in Iowa, Donald Trump still leads the national poll for Republicans with 40 per cent. Ted Cruz followed with 16 per cent and Senator Marco Rubio of Florida came in third with 13 per cent.
Here's the complete Democratic poll results.
And the Republican results.

Emmy and the Incredible Shrinking Rat by Lynne Jonell
Book DescriptionEmmy was a good girl. At least, she tried very hard to be good. She did her homework without being told. She ate all her vegetables, even the slimy ones. And she never talked back to her nanny, Miss Barmy, although it was almost impossible to keep quiet, some days. She really was a little too good. Which is why she liked to sit by the Rat. The Rat was not good at all...

Serves 4-6
This hands-off technique makes excellent polenta with very little effort or time on the cook's part. It results in creamy polenta with a very rich flavor.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a 1 to 1-1/2 quart container, stir together the water, salt, pepper, and cornmeal. Add the butter in pieces. Place the container, uncovered, in the center of the top rack of the oven and bake for 40 minutes. Open the oven, pull out the rack, and stir the polenta. (This is the time to add any additional ingredients such as cheese, as well.) Close the oven and bake the polenta for an additional 10 minutes. Remove it from the oven, let rest for 5 minutes, and serve.

Peel the broccoli stem.
Cut the stem into thick slices.
Separate the broccoli tops into small florets. (There should be about 3 cups of broccoli altogether.) Melt the butter in a large saucepan.

New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - January 14, 2011, New Braunfels, Texas Page 4 — Herald-Zeitung — Friday, January 14, 2011 FORUM Herald-Zeitung Serving New Braunfeit and Carnal County time 1852. New Braunfels Zeitung was founded 1852, New Braunfels Herald was founded t890 The two papers merged in 1957 and printed in both German and English until 1958 Editor and Publisher Managing Editor Circulation Director Business Manager Advertising Director Doug Toney Autumn Phillips Jeff Fowler Rosie Willingham Timothy Tergeoglou Letters to the Editor Military and Homeland Security spending out of control New rules adopted by the House last week could have a negative effect on our government s ability to bring stability to the economy. Iliey allow the chair of the House Budget Committee, Rep. Paul Ryan (Wis.), to bypass the usual bipartisan consultation and decide by himself how much, and in what areas, the House will recommend that the U.S. government spend the public's money. Ryan and other House leaders want to reduce federal spending only by cutting "domestic, non-security discretionary" spending. It's essential to cut the budget and that especially includes the military and 1 lome I.and Security. I hree reasons - (1) They are extremely wasteful in their financial practices; (2) Gutting domestic policies alone won't save this economy from collapsing; and (3) The military and Homeland Security are out of control and not serving the interests of the citizens of the U.S. or abiding by the Constitution. This is a chance to curb the insane war-waging and bullying that this country continuously engages in along with the oppression of the U.S. citizenry by Homeland Security. While our congressman, Lamar Smith seems to be an honest man, voters are wising up to the fact that Congress has long been in the pockets of powerful lobbyists — especially when it comes to the military and now with I lomeland Security. Please contact your representative and tell them to include the military and Homeland Security in the budget cuts. Terry Cavanagh New Braunfels Drop those bottles, tin cans in recycling bin instead of trash Regarding Bradley Reininger's letter about his dislike for recycling he states that his blue recycle bin has eight soda cans on recycling day, so I ask Mr. Reininger, how do you dispose of all your junk mail, newspapers, envelopes that bills come in, catalogs, magazines, boxboard, glass botdes and jars, tin cans (such as vegetable cans), plastic milk jugs? These are all items that should go into the blue recycle bin. Blanche Pape New Braunfels New pick-up schedule has made recycling easier We are very pleased with the new recycling cans and the weekly pick-up schedules. Now we do not bother to bundle the newspapers (after finding a place to store them for two or three weeks) and take them to the* school of our choice. We also do not fill our trunk with cardboard and take it to the recycling center on Butcher Street. We recycle more than soda cans. We also include all cans, and even the Christmas wrapping paper. Perhaps if a recent letter writer and the other two adults in his family would carefully sort their trash, they would have less regular trash and more recycling. The boxes in the regular trash should have been in the recycling—as any intelligent adult who can read the city's instructions should know. Vivian Nuhn New Braunfels Today in History Today is Friday, Jan. 14,2011. Today's Highlight in History: On Jan. 14, 1784, the United States ratified a peace treaty with England, ending the Revolutionary War. On this date: In 1639, the first constitution of Connecticut — the Fundamental Orders — was adopted. In 1858, Napoleon III, Emperor of the French, and his wife, Empress Eugenie, escaped an assassination attempt led by Italian revolutionary Felice Orsini, who was later captured and executed. In 1900, Puccini's opera "Tosca" had its world premiere in Rome. In 1943, President Franklin O. Roosevelt, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and French General Charles de Gaulle opened a wartime conference in Casablanca. In 1952, NBC's "Today" show premiered, with Dave Garroway as the host, or 'communicator," as he was officially known. In 1953, Josip Broz Tito was elected president of Yugoslavia by the country's Parliament. In 1963, George C. Wallace was sworn in as governor of Alabama with a pledge of "segregation forever." In 1968, the Green Bay Packers of the NFL defeated the ATL's Oakland Raiders, 33-14, in Super Bowl II. In 1969,27 people aboard the aircraft earner USS Enterprise, off Hawaii, were killed when a rocket warhead exploded, setting off a fire and additional explosions. In 1970, Diana Ross and the Supremes performed their last concert together, at the Frontier Hotel in Las Vegas. Ten years ago: The matchup for Super Bowl XXXV (35) was decided as the New York Giants shut out the Minnesota Vikings, 41-0, to win the NFC championship and the Baltimore Ravens beat the Oakland Raiders, 16-3, to gain the AFC title. Five years ago: The chief judge in Saddam Hussein's trial (Rizgar Mohammed Amin) submitted liis resignation (he was succeeded by Raouf Rasheed Abdel-Rah-man). Johnny Weir won his third straight title at the U.S. Figure Skating championships in St. Louis; Sasha Cohen won the women's division; Michelle Kwan was given a berth on the U.S. Olympic figure skating team. Academy Award-winning actress Shelley Winters died in Beverly Hills, Calif., at age 85. One year ago: President Barack Obama and the U.S. moved to take charge in earthquake-ravaged Haiti, dispatching thousands of troops along with tons of aid. Iraq's electoral commission barred 500 candidates from running in March 2010 parliamentary elections, including a prominent Sunni lawmaker, deepening sectarian divides. Today's Birthdays: CBS commentator Andy Rooney is 92. Actress Faye Dunaway is 70. Right-wingers dodge responsibility for Arizona shooting Probably every decent American had the same emotional reaction as former Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor to the appalling events in her home state of Arizona. "It sounds like something that might happen in some place like Afghanistan," O'Connor told the New York Times. "It shouldn't happen in Tucson." We keep saying that, but political assassinations and assassination attempts are more common in the United States than just about anywhere. During my adult life, lunatics with guns or GENELYONS Arkansas Democrat-Gazette columnist Gene Lyons is a National Magazine Award winner and co-author of "The Hunting of the President." E-mail Lyons at [email protected] charismatic celebrity in the United States is to wear a target — with or without Sarah Palin's help. That's along with events like the Columbine, Virginia Tech and Fort Hood massacres. Indeed, madmen with guns and obscure, often quasipolitical motives have become such a common feature of American life that it takes either a high-profile victim or a high body count to make national TV news — often the killer's fervent ambition. Atrocities occur so regularly that most of us know the post-traumat- Robert Kennedy the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., Gov. George Wallace, President Ronald Reagan. One hundred sixty-eight innocent victims in Oklahoma City. Less successful attempts were also made against presidents Gerald Ford and Bill Clinton. Prior to the grievous wounding of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords and the murder of six innocent bystanders, the only member of Congress assassinated in office was Rep. Leo Ryan, in Guyana, in connection with the 1978 Jonestown suicides people thing? They often say nobody could have predicted, but often somebody did. Why was such a disturbed individual walking around untreated? Don't we have hospitals for people like that? Finally, how can such a lone demento gain access to semiautomatic weapons? Shouldn't we keep deadly weapons out of the hands of crazy people? Goodness, we license dogs and motorcycles. We regulate fireworks and pain pills. Why not an episode of mass psychosis unique guns? Has America developed a col lt*k Alll* lifotim/kr 1 — 1.* * i a in our lifetimes. To be a high-profile politician or lective death wish? But never mind the Freudian clap- trap. We also already know the answers. In our fragmented society, the archetypal paranoid loner is often cut off from family or community. (This appears not so with Rep. Giffords' assailant, Jared Loughner, although much remains unknown.) Most people who glimpse their psychoses feel no responsibility. It's safest to tiptoe away. In most jurisdictions, it's far too hard to have people committed to overcrowded, understaffed psychiatric hospitals. The college that expelled Loughner pending a mental-health evaluation appears never to have considered stronger actions. They would likely have been futile. Current law often reflects overblown fears evoked by pop-culture confections like "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," in which romantic rebels are persecuted for being different. The vast majority of people with brain diseases are actually less dangerous than the average man in the street. But partly because cases like Loughner's get so much attention, American mental health care remains both less robust and compassionate than it should be. As for guns, what's left to say? It's come to this: Sen. Frank Lautenberg's, D-N.J., big reform idea is to outlaw 30-round ammo clips. So instead of carrying one Glock 9 mm with three clips, the next mad assassin would need to pack three Glocks for whacking congresswomen, judges, senior citizens and little girls. Alas, the argument over firearms has been lost to hairy-chested right- wingers for whom guns are totems: symbolic projections of manliness, virility and patriotism. What Sarah Palin — that name again — calls "Real Americans." Given Arizona's anything-goes climate, Jared Loughner broke no laws until he pulled the trigger. My own view is that what guns signify as political symbols, as opposed to tools, is a decidedly unmanly fear and lack of self-confidence. I would cite Loughner, a psychotic child playing cowboys in a suburban Safeway, as Exhibit A. But the argument's lost for the foreseeable future. Which brings us back to Sarah Palin. No, it's not her fault in any legal or moral sense, although if somebody shot Palin herself after, say, Michael Moore put Alaska in the crosshairs, there would be hell to pay. It's not the fault of those yo-yo's swaggering around Tea Party meetings carrying assault weapons, displaying "Liberal Hunting Licenses," or listening to that Froot Loop Glenn Beck's delusional rants about President Obama's imaginary concentration camps. It's all just hijinks, satire, harmless joking. It's also not Rush Limbaugh's fault, nor Newt Gingrich's for writing that a Democratic president's "secular-socialist machine represents as great a threat to America as Nazi Germany or the Soviet Union once did." But you know how we're constantly being told how the Democrats are the party of no consequences, no personal responsibility and crippling moral relativism?

Amendments to the PRC Labor Contract Law take effect on July 1, adding limitations on employment structures.
On July 1, 2013, amendments to the People's Republic of China (PRC) Labor Contract Law will take effect. The amendments increase the regulation of staffing and labor service businesses and discourage the use of secondment arrangements to avoid employer-related liabilities. The new law was published on December 28, 2012 and is an important development in China's business community.
In recent years, increasing numbers of labor-intensive businesses, including state-owned banks and large multinationals, have used secondment services provided by staffing firms due to the difficulties involved in terminating employees and increased compliance costs in China. The secondment arrangements became attractive options among employers because the termination of such an arrangement was not subject to the numerous restrictions set forth in the labor law and regulations and avoided triggering severance obligations.
In light of the Chinese government's amendments to the PRC Labor Contract Law, companies with operations in China should keep in the mind the below major requirements when formulating or executing compliance plans.
Qualification of Staffing Firms
To engage in a staffing business for the provision of secondment services, a company must meet the new law's requirements, which include a minimum registered capital of at least RMB$2 million. In addition, a company must apply for a special permit before conducting any staffing business. As the law is silent on the qualifications of an applicant to obtain such a permit, the approval authorities have broad discretion. It is possible the Chinese government will control the number of service providers in a particular geographic area by limiting the number of permits issued. In practice, firms without permits may structure their business models as outsourcing businesses by arguing that they are not providing staffing services. However, because the distinction between "secondment" and "outsourcing" is not defined in any law or regulation, the regulatory authorities may treat the outsourcing model as secondment in substance and thus require a permit.
Equal Work, Equal Pay
The new law requires that the recipients of secondment services compensate the secondee for his or her services on the principle of "equal work, equal pay." Although this concept has been in existence since the promulgation of the PRC Labor Law in 1994, it is not a defined term in any labor regulation, including the new law. Traditionally, benefits and other nonsalary items, such as equity incentive awards, have not been considered when applying the principle of equal work, equal pay. It remains to be seen how the courts and labor arbitration organizations will interpret the principle in the context of the new law.
Limitation on the Role of Secondees
The new law expressly states that, as a general principle, employers should hire employees through signed labor contracts and that secondment can be used only if the position is of a temporary, auxiliary, or replaceable nature. A position will be treated as temporary if it lasts no more than six months, but it is not clear whether the secondment term can be renewed upon expiration. "Auxiliary positions" are defined as noncore business positions without further explanation. In practice, it may often be very difficult to distinguish between core and noncore positions. For instance, while it can be argued that only bankers are core to the banking business, it can also be asserted that in-house lawyers should be core personnel as well because of their role in controlling and managing risks, which is critical to banks. The new law defines "replaceable positions" as those left vacant because the formal employees are on leave for personal or business reason, but it is not clear if replacement positions can be renewed.
Percentage Limitation on the Number of Secondees
The new law requires employers to strictly limit the number of secondees to a certain percentage of the total number of personnel (including secondees). Specific percentages will be announced by the State Council. It is generally understood that the percentage should be within a 10% to 30% range. A literal reading of the language of the new law suggests that any percentage limitation should be in addition to the requirement that the positions for secondees should be of a temporary, auxiliary, or replaceable nature. Thus, an employer may not argue that it complies with the law by limiting the number of secondees below the maximum percentage, regardless of the nature of a secondee's position. In practice, however, employers or regulatory authorities may take the percentage cap as a safe harbor due to the difficulties of defining the nature of a secondee's position.
Consequences of Breach
For staffing firms without a permit, the Chinese government may take away all illegal revenue and impose monetary penalties of up to five times the amount of the revenue. If a staffing firm or employer fails to comply with the law, the labor regulatory authority will order it to take corrective measures. A per person penalty ranging from RMB$5,000 to RMB$10,000 will be imposed if no remedial measures are adopted by the employer or staffing service provider. The new law is silent on whether a secondee may request that the employer convert him or her into a formal employee if the employer is found to be noncompliant. If the answer is no, what will happen to the existing secondment? Should the parties terminate the secondment and should the actual user of the employee's service formally employ someone for the same position? May the secondee have a right of first refusal if the actual user is required to do so? These and other similar questions remain to be answered by further implementing rules from the State Council or judicial interpretation from the Supreme People's Court.

Going braless with AMOLUX Diamond breast forms
The Breast Form Store STRONGLY recommends wearing a bra with AMOLUX Diamond breast forms. Although many of our clients have had success going braless with the smaller sizes (4 & 6), larger sizes have a heavier weight, and therefore will likely not be secure when worn braless.
If you want to wear the forms without a bra, it is best if you wear a tighter fitting halter top, leotards, sports bra or any sort of garment that will give that extra bit of security. You may find that you have no problem at all wearing the forms everywhere without a bra as they really hold. Experiment at home to find your best solution.
Clients who have more than two inches of developed tissue (the difference between the nipple measurement and below-the-nipple measurement) may find that the AMOLUX Diamond breast forms are not concave enough to allow for braless attachment, or may not sit as nicely on the body.
How to use AMOLUX Diamond adhesive breast forms
To attach AMOLUX Diamond breast forms, clean your chest using AMOLUX Skin Tonic. This removes any body oils on the skin. For a better clean and a better stick, use our Skin Tac Wipes to prepare your skin. Allow your skin to properly dry, then position the breast forms on your chest.
NOTE: Smaller sizes will have better adhesion than the larger sizes, due to the weight of the breast form. Results may very depending on skin preparation, skin type and size of the breast form. For better results, shower and clean the skin with a mild soap and wipe the skin with Skin Tac Wipes before attaching the breast forms.
Never sleep ON your silicone breast forms. Your weight may burst them!

A generalized preferential attachment model for business firms growth rates
We introduce a model of proportional growth to explain the distribution P(g) of business firm growth rates. The model predicts that P(g) is Laplace in the central part and depicts an asymptotic power-law behavior in the tails with an exponent ζ=3. Because of data limitations, previous studies in this field have been focusing exclusively on the Laplace shape of the body of the distribution. We test the model at different levels of aggregation in the economy, from products, to firms, to countries, and we find that the predictions are in good agreement with empirical evidence on both growth distributions and size-variance relationships.

Glencore Has Good News for Metal Bulls Doubting 2016 Rallyby
`Record low sector margins setting scene for price upswing'
Investments insufficient to maintain production levels
The resurgence in mining shares this year may be just getting started, if Glencore Plc's assessment is right.
Demand is set to exceed supply for zinc and some other industrial metals, the mining and trading company said at a conference Tuesday, citing estimates from Morgan Stanley and Citigroup Inc. The outlook comes after supply gluts and three years of declining prices deterred production. BHP Billiton Ltd., the world's biggest mining company, said separately that it isn't waiting for prices to recover as it boosts investments in copper and oil.
"Structural deficits are returning, led by zinc," Glencore said in a presentation posted on its website for the mining conference in Miami. "Supply challenges for copper and zinc remain due to resource quality and scarcity at current prices."
A gauge of 18 producers tracked by Bloomberg Intelligence has jumped 33 percent this year as metal prices rose on output cuts and easing concerns on the economy in China, the world's biggest user. Shares of Vancouver-based Teck Resources Ltd. have more than doubled, leading gains in the index. Zinc has climbed 18 percent this year, in line with tin's rally. Copper is little changed in 2016.
Citigroup, the bank that was ahead of the game back in 2012 when analysts declared the end of the super cycle of rising demand and prices, now expects a weaker dollar and China's stabilizing economy mean most commodity markets have reached their bottoms. Investors have poured $49 million into exchange-traded funds backed by industrial metals this year, data compiled by Bloomberg show.
Refined zinc production will trail consumption by 352,000 metric tons this year, the International Lead and Zinc Study Group said in April, widening its deficit forecast from 152,000 tons in October. The shortfall in refined copper will reach 56,000 tons in 2016, the International Copper Study Group said in March. In October, the group predicted a surplus of 175,000 tons.
Cautious Sentiment
Still, not all mining CEOs are ready to call an end to the slump. While Tom Albanese of Vedanta Ltd. said the worst may be over for commodities, Rio Tinto Group's Sam Walsh said earlier this month that "calling the bottom is brave." The BI index of 18 producers has lost 12 percent this month as doubts on China resurface.
"Markets remain oversupplied, sentiment cautious and we expect a period of prolonged lower commodity prices and volatility," BHP CEO Andrew Mackenzie said in a statement before the conference in Miami. "Notwithstanding new macro-economic realities, we are confident in the outlook for our portfolio of commodities."
Capital expenditures by the top five diversified producers have fallen to $24 billion this year, from a peak of $71 billion in 2012, Glencore estimates. That means current investment is insufficient to maintain production levels over the medium term, it said.
Commodity prices are "now close to pre-supercycle levels," when growth in Asia fueled a surge in prices, Glencore said. "Record low sector margins are setting the scene for the next price upswing."
The Bloomberg Industrial Metals subindex of prices has rebounded about 11 percent since dropping to the lowest since 2004 in January.
Peter Grauer, chairman of Bloomberg LP, the parent of Bloomberg News, is a senior independent non-executive director at Glencore.
