barrons3	Cramer called BHP a "one-stop shop for everything we pull out of the ground": aluminum, copper, iron ore, coal, nickel, zinc, lead, uranium. There’s even some oil exposure here. The company earns a big chunk of its business – 20 percent – from China, hence the stock’s inclusion on this list. Cramer also likes the $11 billion in cash BHP has to make business-enhancing acquisitions.	Love	March 18, 2010

barrons3	Look at Cliffs Natural (CLF), Freeport (FCX), Vale (VALE) and BHP Billiton (BHP). These are minerals companies that are supposed to be going down because of the pricking of the Chinese bubble. Oops.	Love	March 04, 2010

barrons3	Australia is another winner, said Cramer, as the country technically didn't even have a recession thanks to strong natural resources and a proactive government. Cramer said he likes BHP Billiton (BHP), the world's largest mining company.	Love	January 07, 2010

barrons3	And I’d look at companies with exposure to copper and nickel such as BHP (BHP) and Vale (VALE). And I’d note that the data is from HCBS not the government, adds Seymour.	Love	January 06, 2010
RhinoStocks	BHP Billiton has been in a strong uptrending channel for a while, but a pullback is needed before making a trend on this one.	Love	December 29, 2009
barrons3	and that it will have big oil demand, which is great for everyone from Schlumberger (SLB) to Transocean (RIG), and tremendous need for copper (Freeport (FCX) and BHP Billiton (BHP - commen)), iron (Vale (VALE)) and coal (Peabody (BTU) and Burlington Northern (BNI), just to name two).	Love	November 12, 2009
barrons3	I am aghast that people here do not even seem to recognize what bull market behavior is. Pure, oxygenated bull market patterns abound every day here. Look at Potash (POT) on takeover talk from Bank of America about BHP Billiton (BHP)! Total ether! And yet it takes Deere (DE) up with it. All aboard Monsanto (MON)?	Love	October 22, 2009
barrons3	“I believe China will be the country that leads the rest of the world into the coming recovery,” Cramer says. Why? Because the Middle Kingdom quickly pushed through a stimulus package that focused on infrastructure, and it didn’t take long to see the positive effects. Investors who want to play Chinese spending should buy BHP Billiton, the world’s largest diversified resources company. China can’t build its bridges and tunnels without the metals and minerals mined by BHP, and the stock is a great hedge against inflation.	Love	October 22, 2009
barrons3	Cramer said minerals are also a safe bet, with stocks like Vale (VALE), another Action Alerts Plus name, along with Freeport McMoran (FCX) and BHP Billiton (BHP), all taken lower today despite the fact they're huge China plays.	Love	October 08, 2009

barrons3	Both BHP (BHP) and Vale (VALE) have expressed interest to diversify into the fertilizer space. - Tim Seymour	Love	September 02, 2009
barrons3	I do love the linkage between BHP Billiton (BHP) and China, and I get the Union Pacific (UNP) linkage and the Potash (POT) linkage. But some of the other stocks that will come down today off of China are harder for me to figure out.	Love	August 20, 2009

Stockpickr Staff	On July 22's "Lightning Round," Cramer said Alcoa (AA) was "too poorly run, but he liked Freeport-McMoRan (FCX) and BHP on a pullback. "Let's wait for them toe come down," he said. "They've had too big a run."	Love	August 12, 2009
barrons3	The stocks he buys fit into one or more cross-border themes, such as the shift in global economic leadership. He believes, for instance, that stocks of commodity producers are poised to outperform as consolidation continues. "Government-backed entities in countries like China are motivated buyers of these companies for strategic rather than financial reasons," he argues. Levitt thinks that as investors find fewer publicly traded alternatives to choose from, behemoths such as BHP Billiton and independent metals producers such as Teck Cominco will benefit, outperforming the market.

Stockpickr Staff	"The industrials are pausing because the commodity rally, which takes its cue from oil, gold and Europe in that order, has not a thing going for it right now. Caterpillar's (CAT) on the case there as an indicator, along with Freeport (FCX) and BHP (BHP), the China plays."

barrons3	Of course, it is also how Freeport (FCX) and BHP Billiton (BHP) gallop ever higher.	Love	June 04, 2009
barrons3	Seymour told viewers could play this space by going for the "biggest and baddest" stocks like BHP Billiton(BHP), Rio Tinto(RTP) and Companhia Vale Ads(VALE).	Love	May 06, 2009
Stockpickr Staff	"Neither Freeport-McMoRan (FCX) nor BHP Billiton (BHP) had really good things to say, and people just bought them anyway -- and, when the refs did one of those 'upon further review' situations on Caterpillar (CAT), they loved it."

He said he wouldn't put stocks such as Teck Cominco (TCK) in the same category [as Freeport]. "BHP (BHP) deserves to be in the same category," he said. "These are the plays on China: FCX and BHP."

barrons3	Seymour added the additional stimulus from China is having an effect on the markets. He still is long Teck Cominco (TCK) and likes BHP Billiton(BHP).	Love	April 15, 2009
