Ur pretty much right, trying to make this a long term investment is insane, when the failure rate among mining stocks is around 90% LBSR performance has been about normal for the industry, thinking it would b different has been the mistake here among many, these r trading stocks at best, at worst, a pipe dream that never delivers, either u have to keep buying to maintain ur interest or try and flip it, sell for a loss or just watch as u r diluted out of ur equity stake, what a devil's dilemma for believers.
