All I can say is I hope you're right.
I also bought my first shares in 2016 at much higher prices and have cost averaged down about 9 cents below where you are, so I'm deeply underwater too.
My opinions on Dan I'll keep to myself, but it's a sweet and sour opinion for sure. No one can be happy with where the share price has gone over the years, and I agree with You that Dan as the CEO is responsible for the poor share price performance. I have a very positive opinion of Paul since he came onboard. I can only imagine the shit he's gone through.
I haven't talked to Dan or Paul specifically concerning the handling of the Springpole permitting, but until they hired Steve Lines and changed their procedure methods, the procedure wasn't the current one. That set us back at least a year in the process and I believe Dan should have been on top of that situation sooner. I'll admit he had a lot on his plate when he took over, but Steve Lines came onboard at least two, maybe three years AFTER Dan did.
On the subject of being at a bottom in our shares is I'm skeptical we are there just yet. My feeling is if we see a big swoon in the overall markets are some point this year or after the election that all risk assets will fall. Money will go into the dollar and U.S.treasuries until the Fed pivots and begins QE again. IMO after that happens we'll see gold and eventually the mining sector take off. I do think it's going to be interesting to see how our share price reacts to our final admission of the EA this Summer.
I'm hoping it's very positive.
Time will tell on how this plays out, but we should be getting ever closer to some sort of turning point for sure. THANK GOD.
