If it ever stops. I remain convinced that Tao is a great prospect, even with 2-300M shares in public circulation. If the dollar flops and gold rises, then gold shares will follow and Tao will be one of them -if the dilution ends before that time.

Unfortunately, we are quickly approaching that time. I give it another 2-6 weeks with what is likely a few more commodity bottoms to follow. I think folks are sensing the change is near for the gold market though.

Recipe for Tao's success:

1. End the dilution with a public announcement before the dollar flops
2. Announce an extensive share buyback program to 2011
3. Remove the gag restrictions and re-engage shareholders
4. Prove El Colmillo is operational beyond reasonable doubt

This will get us back to +10c and pave the way for positive share value as Golondrina becomes the new focus. This of course assumes Gold and the Dollar swap directions, like many people believe will be happening soon.
