HOT TOPIC: What’s wrong with potash?

Slightly over half the CMJ readers who responded to last week's question about where they would make an equity investment chose the gold sector. Base metals garnered 22% support, iron ore 11%, and uranium and coal each had 6% of the votes. No one wanted to make an investment in potash.

The result begs the question: What's wrong with the potash sector?

Please go to the CMJ home page, www.CanadianMiningJournal.com, and find the Hot Topic Opinions question half-way down on the left hand side of the page to vote.
