Well I could be wrong since apparently we are entering a new bull market but I am trimming the following
Sterlite Industries (SLT), Mechel (MTL), WuXi PharmaTech (WX), CF Industries (CF), LDK Solar (LDK), Frontier Oil (FTO)
Most of these are more "high beta" (i.e. smaller cap, higher risk) names that fly when speculation is back on the table - as apparently it is now that the crack dealer is back on the corner.
While my long positions are happy, my intellectual thinking cap is disgusted.

Not seeing copper prices drop anytime SLT has shown some real strength.
SLT is quickly turning into one of my favorite trading stocks. The reason I own it over FCX is Indian itself is in a secular growth market so even if worldwide growth slows and copper prices do drop (which I still believe they will) SLT will be quite insulated. Now that doesnt mean the stock won't drop when copper drops but it has a bull market for itself in India. I currently have SLT down to sub 1% of the fund but will be building it back once the stock drops. It has been very strong on this recovery.
