Andrew Hecht Investing Group Leader Follow Summary I reiterate my Buy recommendation on the iShares MSCI Global Metals & Mining Producers ETF, which remains in a long-term bullish trend near record highs. Industrial metals prices, especially copper, zinc, tin, and steel, have posted strong double-digit gains in 2026, driving profitability for mining companies held in PICK. PICK offers diversified exposure to leading global mining firms, with robust liquidity, a 2% yield, and a 0.39% management fee. Persistent inflation, a weaker dollar, climate initiatives, and AI-driven demand support continued bullish momentum, though risk management is essential amid potential market corrections.
