Dear HAI, I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you very much for inviting me to conduct an interview for HardAssetsInvestor.com. Since the interview was posted, I have received a tremendous amount of very positive feedback from associates in the Steel industry. Fortunately many of the items we discussed have turned out to be the most important issues in the industry at this time. In addition, since the interview I have had individuals who were interested in investing in steel related stocks contact me for advice. This was a great forum for me to express my opinions on the Steel market as well as to increase my company's exposure. Thank you, Paul Quartararo Spectra Resources Corp. So What's New Barron's May 21, 2007 "CONTENT ON HARDASSETSINVESTOR.COM includes breaking news and commentary, in-depth research and message boards. When I looked on May 9, HardAssetsInvestor was reporting on Alcoa's hostile bid for Alcan, timber prices and the impending "sour" crude-oil contract. The news was well-written and researched, but the article stack seemed rather slim. Commentary can be found under "Hot Topics." Samples: what's driving the steel market and Canadian oil-sands developments. More commentary appears in "Fighting Words," such as recent comments on an Economic Times article that discussed "minor metals" including cobalt and indium. The site also hosts a good links section, educational reports and articles, and a discussion board. HardAssetsInvestor.com has made a good start. I'm hoping for more content down the road." |
