* Quote - Reuters.com Investment News Base metals fall sharply,
routed by fund sales Feb 10, 2006 by Martin Hayes "In nearly all cases,
metals have run ahead of levels justified by fundamentals, due to the sheer
weight of investment fund money. At some stage the fundamentals will become
influential again, but while the funds are willing and able to buy
commodities, you have to accept that their patronage is the most influential
aspect in the market and will remain so until something knocks them from
their current thinking," William Adams of BaseMetals.com said."
