Suffice to say, I am a big fan of both companies...whose longer term outlook appears secure.

If you consider that commodity prices are likely to push higher from current levels - along with a broadly rising equity market, then these two miners are rather attractive at these levels.

Upside targets...

FCX, $50 - back to the high from early 2011.
TCK, $30/35 zone.....  

Both targets look very viable by spring 2015.
