IMO, there were a lot of traders in NIOBF when the TSX listing happened. They expected the PEA right after the listing, but they began to sell when it was delayed.
That selling started more selling by the short term traders. And did not encourage potential new investors that really were interested in the long term.
Now the chart is not attractive. So, "why buy now?' say the traders and the long term interested investors.
Until the company comes out with some big news that get the traders back in, I think shareholders are going to have to be patient.
I, for one, will wait for news.
