I agree Scruffy. But who could it be? First of all it can't be blamed on the U.S. since it is a Canadian stock. There is a possibility GOG could have some kind of hold on ECU, but with know way to understand either if there financials at this time who knows? I presonally wish someone could get Steve Altmann or Mike Roy to discuss this on our forum. I think it is a cheap way to get straight answers and could give a lot more insight to prospective shareholders. I do believe we are left in the dark about a lot as far as ECU and its future plans. I mean come on 1007.00 plus close today and silver over 17.00 a ounce and we are sitting on a sixty two cent Canadian market price. This is not to mention that ECU and GOG have not made any statements about where they stand as subsidiaries. Yes only 650 thousand in trading today with ECU, but I can't understand why they don't open up better marketing strategies? Is GOG holding them down? This isn;t even mentioning the blind side statement made Saturday with talk about giving shares to there company employees. Was the new 300 mining personal part of that plan? And how about just conference calls? lot of companies do this with there shareholders. Over 200 dollars less a ounce for gold, 5 dollars less a ounce of silver, 2 positive 43/101 reports and I am still at a over 60 percent loss on ECU. Mind you I still believe the goods are there but we need clarity and a nice bounce upwards. I wont give up till the end, but with China and other emerging countries hoarding all the precious metals they can get there hands on we need something to happen and soon. I do believe we will end up with new currency soon, and we as shareholders need to make a effort to get ECU management to step up to the plate. And please lets not go on a witch hunt. Lets get facts and representation. Everyone including myself has asked our governments to do it. Why can't we as shareholders do it with ECU? So anyone have suggestions or our we going to attack each other. I hope not. My goal is to work with anyone who is willing to find out what is the underlying problem with share price. Hope I did not upset anyone just getting tired of getting 2 cents once in awhile from ECU. Well its time we put in more than our 2 cents. Have a good day. {food for thought}
