I have a feeling this blackout thing is false. These guys know what they have. 3 trading days have gone by one more Monday and then wed to Friday that gives us 7 trading days. BY the 9th it will be 10 trading days and all those options will expire or be bought. If they are bought we have some money to go to Arizona and do some work if the expire that won't send the right message. However, perhaps they not be exercised or bought which will mean they are in another blackout. My guess is they are still in a blackout or why havn't they jumped in at these riduculus prices unless someone stole the minerals the Grinch did. Just waiting for Jan 2 to load up the TFSA's another 22000 dollars out of the trading account which could end up saving 10's of thousands of dollars in taxes.

Cheers
