If you are unable/unwilling to accept the dynamics of global economics then you might want to reconsider being invested in the (any) equities market. Investing in the market entails varying but significant degrees of risk period. If you are in the highly speculative junior resource market then the degree of risk is enormous. The potential of return is also very high given the absurdly cheap price of shares...penny stocks anyone. I believe that the church of DD may mitigate some of the risks, however fortitude and patience are the real currency. The soft bashing on this board is troubling and it appears to be escalating. Its an easy decision to make, stay invested and man up (sorry Maggie) or sell and take your whining elsewhere. Buy some other penny stock and b*tch on their board......................................................Kerry/kcopper9
