Copper boom stirs Boston Montana shares and bets
A London affected copper rally lifts Boston & Montana and other Bigelow group stocks amid heavy mining market activity. Traders, led by Lawson Weidenfeld & Co., place bold bids on calls and shares while analysts warn of a possible boom bust. Old Dominion and Pioneer lag, copper prices draw speculation, and claims arise over Butte and Boston trustees. Pinkham notes tangled blame and hedge behavior in media coverage.
