11:41–12:01	Expert View—Adrian Day Speakers Adrian Day, Adrian Day Asset Management The Resource Boom: It’s Only the End of the Beginning Resources across the board have had very strong performance over the past decade, and have started to falter based on concerns about the global economic recovery as well as, specifically, China’s economy. Such pullbacks are normal in a long-term bull market. Resource cycles tend to be very long, and the fundamentals that drove the markets over the past decade are still very much in place. China’s economy will continue to develop with increases in per-capita consumption of resources, while there is a paucity of large deposits that are viable and in politically friendly jurisdictions. There is a lot further to go, in terms of length and price.	General Session Hall
