Portee, in your reply to DM you made a statement ..."I gotta wonder where these people are from and do they have ANY knowledge of what they are investing in...??"

Is it a requirement to be an expert in mining or geology to invest in this sector?

Are you saying that people with a medical background should stick to pharmacuticals, those with computer knowledge should only invest in Microsoft, farmers in pork bellies...etc.

Remember, were would the market be without the retail investor/gambler. There would be no one for the REAL investors to fleace.
