Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc. (FCX) is a copper, gold and molybdenum mining company in Indonesia, South America, North America and Africa.
Earnings per share are projected to rise 27.5% this fiscal year, the PE is 8.7, and the dividend is 1.93%. Despite these excellent "value stock" numbers, a mining stock is going to trade more in tune with metals markets, whereas a PepsiCo with the same valuation would be a good growth stock to own longer-term. Think of this as a trading opportunity, not a buy-and-hold stock.
The stock has been trading in the $49-$61 range, and if it continues this pattern, a buyer at the current price could sell at $58 and net 10% profit in the short-term.
