One of the main reason the PM shareprice are generally a joke considering the high level of gold and silver is the inabilty of the company to better promote themselves and their laisser faire attitude regarding the manipulation and related sheganigans in the "market". Today is a prime example has everything is melting while the companies are still very profitable.
Sooner or later most investors are getting fed up of these games and they sell their shares. What's interesting lately is that at least part of the funds from the liquidation are used to buy physical gold and silver thus rendering manipulation more difficult. The longest it last the better we're going to be in the medium term. Personnally I don't care how low the shares go as long as gold and silver prices remain strong. I won't buy nor sell shares in this environment but just keep adding silver coins and bars. It's the fastest way to create pain to the pigs until they throw the towel.
