We've heard very little and yet quite a bit predominidently with respect to news from DE.   Windfall has had another great NR but of course its time is not yet here to pump this stock up to any significant level.  So what makes me think our Christmas present awaits us and that RN is just making sure its wrapped perfectly in every way so that we're not disappointed?

1. More assay reports will make the find greater and the tonnage will increase accordingly with this still being the very early stages of speculation.
2. There have been meeting and more meetings from those who can make Noront's property pop with new discoveries very quickly, or course at a 50% premium. 
3. The stock has been confirmed to be at its support level now with respect to the valuation of the finds to date. We have no where to go but up.
4. Marketing has been ongoing which keeps the investment community ears open for anything to do with NOT right now. Once news of the calibre we are expecting, based on rumor to some degree, comes out the world investment community will be there to buy and the price will likely jump significantly (maybe 10 -12 dollars with a settling down to the 7-8 dollar range). 
5. The trading volume has never dropped below 1 - 2 million for any significant time. Not even sure if its dropped below a million shares per day at all yet.
6. Joint ventures will be popping out of everywhere and based on the ability of Noront to handle the drilling of the entire property and costs involved, 50% premium or what ever deal RN works out will no doubt increase the ability of this property to push the find meter up significantly in the shortest amount of time.  That is what we all want as shareholders isn't it??
7. Being long in a stock doesn't mean we have to hold it forever to get what we want and take our profits from it.  RN is pushing to make this baby pop big and that will take time..actually has taken time, but really..where were we in August again..??!!!  Patience!!!
8. The big guys are here and if they don't get the big deals done they likely won't get paid.  Who works for free, especially in the investment business.  Thats just a dead giveaway that we have some pretty special stuff going on here.

So all in all....NOT bad right??!!...absolutely.  I still say 5.00 is cheap..yes 3.80 was cheaper and somewhat unexpected...but now with the bottom pretty much set at 5.00 I see no reason not to be loading up again.  I plan to buy more.  As some have said before and they are right... once the valuation of the mine becomes more apparent buying the stock at 10.00 will still be cheap.  Its a matter of time and PATIENCE.  Patience is something that falls in the eye ofthe beholder....however for something like this I think patience means hold...and monitor....don't play...just monitor.  I know the day traders and swing traders will tell you different and if they are good at it they can make some money here.  I still say you need to have enough money to buy in long at 1/2 the shares and then trade the others, always leaving 1/2 in.  We all know there are those that do this and are likely very successful at it.  All power to them.  If your nervous...don't.  You'll be dragged into another world..too much like gambling where you win one day...lose the next and in the end if you not lucky the brokers make all the dough.  Be very careful if you plan on doing anything with your shares...the big news is yet to come and I figure the big news coming will only be small in the nature of things as this baby unfolds.  So not to sound like I'm pumping...please do not get impatient...weeks, months can go by and the price will fluctuate, but in the end our NR have never been bad.  Wait and Santa RN will be bringing you your special presents.
