Many posters feel the PP's got an inside track on information. Others express untoward comments about information being withheld or delayed. At the time I bought into NOT, I held PNP, and had set up a mock portfolio with PNP's recent and top holdings (about 50 symbols at that time, not exhaustive. This exercise took about an hour on Yahoo. I have since owned PNP as well as a few of their picks. I look at that portfolio at least twice a day.) Please do likewise if you think they are handed layups with a step ladder.

Here is what you will find:

1)The vast majority of their picks are really good mineral prospects and any could be 20 X baggers or better;

2)Very few have achieved that euphoria in 1)

3) These are really smart and studious folks. They do not take "stupid money" and throw around at garbage as the big investment banks do;

4) A lot more red than green for the last year, daily, weekly and overall;

5)NOT is the creme of their holding, I think exercise was their 4th helping;

You will rapidly conclude as I did long ago: NOT is the Cream, and if you are to be successful, you need to tough out the worst financial crisis since the depression and endure our political neighbor who hates commodities (unless they are free). NOT has an amazing team, with strategies consistent with the times and value creation.
