Personally, I don't think we will get a new release till Wes finishes his tour. It seems to me a wake-up call to the brokers who have a client base and let them put NOT under watchdog. He guaranteed that we would get news release at the same time. By the same token, all brokers will have an equal chance to review the upcoming news release and decide whether it is a good stock to advise to their clients to invest in. I don't think there would be an immediate impact on sp till next week.
The meetings with brokers will be meaningless unless Noront holds good drilling results as an hostage. After making strenuous efforts for brokers to take NOT into consideration across Canada, he won't be able to say now we deliver bad results to you guys.
Anon (no named institutions) always kicks in when the volume is low or they know there will be no imminent news releases. Nothing surprised to me.
Noront had a drill about 300 metres (in my guestimate) away from Eagle One in August. Boy, Wes is doing all (PP, stock option, dog & pony show to institutions and brokers) before the drilling results are out of his hands.
Maybe you should have another ROF Golf Day!!
