This is getting quite crazy actually... over the past 4 years or so I have invested about 3 times as much money in ECU as physical silver, but today the value of the two has reached parity! So my silver has performed amazingly, but the silver mining company with all the promise in the world is seriously, seriously lagging behind.

However... while with my silver I expect to move from it's current value up about 30% in the next 6-12 months... I fully expect my ECU to move up about 200% in the same timeframe. I expect the drilling, the financial results, the revised 41-101... all will be positive enough to drive this story upwards. What I am secretly hoping for however is for the stars to align.

I'd love the drills to uncover the motherloade. A serious find that goes beyond what we expect and shoots the resource numbers skywards. On top of that, I would love a seriously profitable quarter, followed by a second. If we get both of those things, we could very conservatively be looking at 500% this year.

If I get 500%, I will consider all this time I've been spending on this little hobby of mine very well spent indeed. Plus I might actually feel again that I have backed the right horse.

C'mon ECU, lets show them what we really have! Turn those drills. I hate parity :) Let's make us a serious story once more.
