If you want to play this space with more speculative names that might have even more upside, then look at Avalon Rare Metals (AVL), Titanium Metals (TIE), General Moly (GMO) and Rare Elements (REE). Again, these names are highly speculative, but if we get another round of quantitative easing, they are going to look very attractive.
If you think QE3 is coming, then look to buy the rare earth names on pullbacks. More importantly, buy them off of support zones so you aren't trying to catch a falling knife.
To see more QE stock plays, including Newmont Mining (NEM), Barrick Gold (ABX) and Silver Wheaton (SLW), check out the Quantitative Easing Stock Plays portfolio on Stockpickr.
