I can't believe EE won't step in some time in the future. He has to be unhappy with the SP too. The question is, how low will it go before he does. And, if he does and the SP goes up, will it force Teck's hand? The low price, even as people say share price is irrelevant, sure can't hurt in Teck's case. EE must be itching for the drilling results. He'll get his price one way or the other as long as the core results are a confirmation of ES "district" assumptions. Of course jmho.
