Yes with respect to the manipulation games. The good part of these games is that they are giving those of us with the financial where with all to load up on more incredibly inexpensive shares in this 'Dream Story' named the "Ring of Fire" by its undisputed leader Noront Resources. Additionally, Noront is providing very much encouragement for reasonable expectations very good success to be expected by ""ALL"" the other area players. This suggests to me that the biggest 'manipulator' of all area play shocks is very big in money matters and is using not only 'Stock Trading Techniques' and payed for 'Bashing' but also expending considerable money to buy pseudo media misrepresentation and in its attempt to accumulate shares in several area stocks. Best part of all this is that I sense there are many experienced Venture Exchange Investors who are NOT only 'holding tight' to their current stock holdings, but are also taking advantage of the present "Fire Sale" prices to top up on their area play stock holdings. This gives me to wonder how long this 'big' manipulator can hope to continue their hopefully futile game going. The way I see it now, the longer the better. With time I have and will continue to add to my current holdings, primarily in Noront Resources, but also in a select few other area play companies. This is all making me feel better with every passing day. Old Joe PS: As you can see I have a lot of reading to catch up on here and will try to now do that without posting further observations until much later in the year. Best for the season to ALL!!!
