Wonderful day in the neighborhood!
All is quiet waiting for the Easter Bunny. Panama City already starting to empty for the Holiday vacation. Tomorrow the last official work day, but most executives will be slipping out right after lunch, if not before. Around noon Thursday all the Official stuff shuts down. Life is good if you have already booked a room or have a family place to spend the holidays.
Looks like we may have squeezed out the last of the trolls today @$0.168. Seems fitting we will get our new shot at life this time of year. It certainly was a difficult and challenging time. Those who are aware, and see the way forward in the new business plan, are relaxed and happy. Looks like everybody is going to benefit. No time to gloat...just let the numbers flow and speak for themselves.Those who missed the boat are probably used to that sort of thing.
Some are predestined to their lot in life. But, without them life would be more difficult for the rest of us. The only remaining piece of the puzzle is the election. Looks like it will be close, but Arias should pull it off. Varela-gate will pull some more votes to CD as they follow Mireya. No one seems to want to go to PRD.Only ten more days left to campaign before the quiet period.
So if you bought your shares while you had the chance, then sit back and enjoy the show. Lots of notes and details will be in the May 15th P&L's along with the MD&A. Even before then there may be some price appreciation. I was hoping for some single digit days before we turned back up. But that door is closing very fast.
02/1997---$3.05
12/2001---$0.04
09/2007---$3.33
04/2014---$0.16
12/2018---$X.XX ????????
We have been up and down before and our time is coming again. Don't be dissuaded by ignorant, agenda driven predictions. One positive improvement would be a new BOD member, but that is for December. There may be one or two ready to move on and make space. Mining is going forward in Panama no matter what. Just too much money involved. Will be easier under CD, but it will happen even if they lose. The big prize in the west has not even been awarded yet. More Au, Ag, Cu there than everywhere else combined. Indigenous want a piece of the pie and to join together with someone highly regarded by the Catholic Church. Big push coming out of David. Richer parishioners mean bigger collections and that has been the story in Latin America for five hundred years.
So have a great holiday and be sure and thank the Easter Bunny and his helper who guided us through these tough times.
Saludos,
