Geeps,
Stick with the facts. Make a supreme effort to be scientific and empirical. This is one of very, very few pink sheets companies that has never subjected its shareholders to dilution. That's right, zero dilution. If you don't have the intellectual honesty and objectivity to recognise that and the importance of that fundamental fact, that is your problem, not mine.
Secondly, if you review the different types of activity included in the profile of what is , historically, just about the most prestigious of all American companies, GE, you will find a high degree of diversification. In addition, the leading authorities and the wealthiest familiies in India and China -- we could say without any exaggeration throughout Asia -- they have never sneered at gold, least of all now. It has been the leading store of value for 3 millennia. If you attribute more prestige to the currently sinking dollar, that's your choice (The printing presses so loved by Bernanke are still roaring away!) I would have expected you to learn something from the articulately stated positions of Ron Paul, who can hardly be faulted when he speaks on financial matters.
You really need to go back to the drawing board. Incidentally, I have searched hard and long, because I am an assiduous readers of posts, but I have never found one written by you that ever had anything good to say about any company (you say) you have invested in.
That's curious, you know. Does it mean that EVERY TIME you make an investment, your actual follow-up is to keep firing it down for the next 3-5 years, while never moving on. If that is really your life experience, why not put your money in a piggy bank or -- haha! -- in precious metals (or the shares of a precious metals company, devoted entirely to that, I mean), or simply leave the investment side to people who achieve results and support the companies that bring in results?
The sheer consistency of your record as a 100%, day in, day out, griper leaves you little credibility, in the end. It forces your readers to conclude: "Nothing fails like failure".
