"Any detractors can feel free to tell me how dead wrong my predictions were."

Since you're one of the few on this board that will ever admit to wrong predictions, I will agree that you have been dead wrong for many years. Nothing personal and I'd be the first to admit most of the reasons you gave in the past made sense for SP appreciation. Unfortunately, reality and expectation can be very far apart as any long term shareholder here knows all too well. You always used to advocate improving company fundamentals as a major reason for SP appreciation. Do you still see that as the case in the current mining/POG environment? I don't and think that has very little to do with where the SP currently stands.

IMO we aren't going to see significant SP appreciation here until or unless we see the POG move higher and mining investors get back on the bandwagon. It's that simple IMO.

I also believe they desperately need financing going forward or they are in big trouble.
