Jacki you are not smoking anything, or at the very least I'm doing the same LOL.
However, I had the same opinion back in 2001 or so and stated it on forums such as these by 2006 if not earlier. Then I often said that what you call "angels" will come by at the latest 2009. It is 2012 and no angels so this post is to give you a heads up to some sobriety.
The banksters are capable of delaying things by using freshly printed cash and thus deluding the general public that everything is under control.
Where I thoroughly agree is that their time will come, just that it is much delayed.
Expecting things to correct themselves eventually, I invest in precious metals and sure things such as Noront. No, I do not put much trust into the BofD or the manipulative funds that are deeply invested in this company BUT into the known resource in the ground and potential from the land hold.
Above all I trust that with such a fabulous resource and sharks depressing the share price, should a buyout develop there would be enough suitors to give a fair price. If one offers a price too low another would step up to sweeten the pot. Actually I hope that Noront would only sell off the chromite and keep the nickel ore.
I had hoped for a buyout of Noront above 10$ but that was in an environment of a better world economy. I suspect that my expectations now need to be reduced a bit. Eagle is worth 5$ to me and adding a couple of dollars more for the chromite is now a bit short of 10.
This dreamer is sobering up while sleeping less contentedly now, Argghhh. Ed.
