Still here, just ridin the waves.
Looking forward to what I hope will be a summer that finally sees the bk wrapped up and shares released.
Yeah, I’ll make sure to pass that along to Doug next time I talk to him.
Well at least they authorized yet another $2 billion share repurchase. Maybe that will help soak up some shares and get us back over 50. Maybe.
Can’t argue. You’re right.
I’ve been waiting YEARS for 60 and it ain’t comin.
This is ridiculous. We see 55 again and I’m out.
Sorry to say the obvious, but he is psycho. Even a cursory review of any of those filings, which is all anyone can do because they measure in the hundreds of pages, will reveal it he’s a nut job. Nothing wrong with speaking the truth.
Damn, this stock is a widowmaker. Gonna give me an aneurism.
You’ve got to be kidding. Everybody else is green, not us.
This is why a contemplate selling it all some days. Geesh.
Good on you.
LLAP
what a nut job. just holding on to sanity enough to fill out legal forms. yet another sad abuse of our otherwise great legal system.
Double Ha! Looks like that crazy ass Meadows got his butt spanked by US District Court judge.

Mining company Pebble LP has hired K Street giant Squire Patton Boggs to help win approval for a controversial copper and gold project in southwestern Alaska.
A trio of new lobbyists started working Feb. 6 to persuade the Trump administration on “consideration and approvals related to the proposed Pebble Mine,” according to a lobbying registration released today.
Squire Patton Boggs joins several other lobbying firms already on Pebble’s payroll, most recently Gavel Resources LLC, the firm led by former House Natural Resources Chairman Richard Pombo (R-Calif.).
Overall, records show the company spent $790,000 on lobbying in 2017, including one of last year’s single largest contracts, $750,000 for Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld, 2017’s top national lobbying firm (Greenwire, Jan. 26).
Squire Patton Boggs’ addition comes after U.S. EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt unexpectedly restored the Obama administration’s proposed restrictions on mining surrounding the Pebble site to protect the headwaters of salmon-rich Bristol Bay (Greenwire, Jan. 30).
The team includes Peter Gould, who has expertise in mining and served as an EPA law clerk.
He is joined by Ed Newberry, a former staffer for the House Appropriations Committee and former Rep. Frank Wolf (R-Va.), and Lem Smith, who has served as a staffer in the offices of former Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott (R-Miss.) and Rep. Charlie Norwood (R-Ga.) and now-Sen. Roger Wicker (R-Miss.).
Too busy counting our $$$. :)
Great post. And great links thank you. I wonder if there is a link to the meeting last week they had with the pebble people because This is all opposition on this link.
I listened to the whole audio recording. They mentioned they had a presentation from the pebble limited partnership last week I think Thursday or Friday.
Exactly. The cherry picking of data and info around here, generally to support the short thesis, is tiresome.
Great post. Thanks!
Well said. And very accurate.
That’s all I can hope for too. Sucks. Unreal.
Im gonna let the dust settle a bit. I thought this would be going North.
It will. Large wheels are beginning to slowly turn. That’s how these things work.
PPS could still be bumpy. That’s the gig.
Yeah, I contemplated doing that myself.
In hindsight I guess I’m lucky, my sell order didn’t go through last week when I panicked, so I was only able to sell about 15% of my holding the other day. And now I see it’s bounced back to above what I would’ve sold anyway.
So I’ve still got 85% of everything intact, and I’m just gonna hang onto it. I admit it might be dead money for a while, that’s just the facts.
But the bigger picture here this could be a multi million dollar gain for me, over the course of several years. I’m willing to hold out for that.
I feel like we’re the last bunch of OGs here. We’ve been through this before. MANY times. I’m holding for 65. I’m not going anywhere.
Get used to my ugly face.
Well, metaphorically of course.
Today is one of the saddest days in my investment career. I have capitulated.
I sold half my holdings just stop the bleeding. Hopefully I’ll buy back in, hopefully there will be a reason. I’m just hoping I don’t lose the remainder of my investment. Did not see this coming I have to say, this really sucks.
I made so much money on this investment after the Trump election. I made a big mistake and got cocky and aggressive. Big investing mistake. I have been in this for many years and I’ve always believed it was an opportunity, and still do. But I overextended myself and have taken a tremendous financial hit.
More than a little upset right now, going to step away from the board for a while.
Believe me, John chiang, the treasurer of the state of California, is the LAST person you or anyone should make financial decisions based upon.
If you read Pruitt and Murkowski statements thoroughly, they’re pretty clearly playing the political game. This changes nothing IMHO.
Of course, the market ultimately decides the pain level I guess.
Although I’m as concerned about retail investor panic as the next guy, I don’t really think the bones of this are any kind of game changer.
I’ve read all the press stuff, it really just seems Pruitt is holding them to a high standard, and forcing them to jump through the hoops. In other words, no fast-pass here folks, you’ve got to earn it. But so what?
I never really thought this was going to be a quick buck anyway. It a multi year investment. What’s changed? He and Murkowski are pretty clear in stating this continues forward. With caution and science. Nothing to look at here folks, it seems..
Easy mistake. Based on these last few days price action, I guess Doug better pick up a bottle of wine to mail that guy. :(
Hope it reverses.
He never mentioned his birthday. Fact check please. He bet a concerned investor at an investor relations event that AAL would hit 60 before the investor did. The prize being a bottle of wine.
Unfortunately these robo pieces are usually crap and full of errors. It accomplished its purpose, I guess, by getting our attention.
This remains a solid long term hold. We’ve just got to weather the exiting of the “get rich quick” crowd. Sucks, but it’s true. Nothing fundamentally has changed, in fact it’s gotten better. They’re actually in permitting. Admittedly I’ll say I never thought I’d see it. Viola...
Robo-news. Computer generated newsletter crap.
Try reading a whole paragraph and you’ll see my point.
Don’t even waste your time with it, it can’t fact check itself.
I love our little engine that could. Keep climbing, and holding!!
Sweet. Thanks!
Does anybody know if they authorized another share buyback ? I read somewhere they did last quarter, am unsure though.
Art of the Deal anyone? :)
Fingers crossed...
Who knows? It’s a longshot, but he claims to be pro business. Maybe Trump got to him
Thank you Lord.
I’m curious what scottrade says.
Way beyond my pay grade. I’m sure somebody here has a calculation.
Looks like there’s a court date feb 1st to settle another claim. This one is an outstanding EEOC suit that I wasn’t even aware of,
Ha that’s funny, shows you how many outstanding lawsuits there may still be out there.
I read the court order, it looks like they’re getting 9.8 million. I wonder how that will affect the DCR.
