It will probably be next year at the soonest before Freeport-McMoran Copper and
Gold (FCX) earns enough to justify thoughts of a dividend. Analysts expect it to
recover from a steep deficit to a profit of $1.44 per share for the current
year—probably too slim for a dividend—to $3.03 next year. The leaves FCX
priced at 50x rcurrent year’s estimated net and 19 times next year’s
projected EPS, which seems fully priced. TheStreet.com Ratings grades the stock
a D-minus for its reward potential and a D for riskiness. Its overall mark of D
makes it a “sell” recommendation.

Trimmed mine at $47. Nice job on being patient. I'm holding the rest till it
gets closer to $75ish. It's a solid pillar of my portfolio for now.

when the stock crashed. gotta feel they won't be in any hurry to reinstate it.
