"This release appears to have been written by a technical person with no attempt to "sugar coat" the downside while emphasizing the upside"

All I ask for is a a consistent approach. The same person writing the presentations and the news releases. And then comparing targets and results. Straightforward and clear.

What also struck me was the large amount of Jan $5 options outstanding. My conspiracy instinct (which I never had before I started investing in miners) gets triggered by these kind of things.
