Actually if you own too many ECU shares like some of us do, then that $0.04/ ECU share will pay for a nice little holiday. Apparently that is the only reward I will get from my ECU purchases so far. However hope springs eternal so I keep buying on dips. Problem is we have had too many dips and I have averaged down so many times that I have been averaging up for the past year. I thought this merger would give us more stability but the banksters keep shorting us despite the merger. Actually I am not really that negative. The price suppression has allowed us to accumulate more stock in ECU/Newco than we should have been able to given the price of silver and the huge silver deposits that we have. So patience is all we need as prices should double by fall.
