I believe he is the reincarnation of Downside...or one of a few others...or maybe the same actor.
Seems to me he is paid to torment and create any doubt possible especially amongst the new or uninfromed.
My guesses? Pierre has probably turned down a few low ball offfers, maybe one or two from a deep pocketed concern. Or, a miner/developer with an eye on the resources is moving in and will try to choke the stock...maybe make Pierre wait much longer than he wants to. They know it will take big money to develop the project on a fast track. At this point in time it will be easy to pin the stock down by any number of legal or illegal means. Of course this possibility is open to anyone with an agenda and a cooperative MM or other. Why? I'll leave that up to your own imaginations.
News is coming and if it doesn't create excitement and volume, above entities could keep the pressure on in the face of a screaming bull market pissing off all investors and management ... continuing to pressure a deal.
All guesses on my part. But it is most obvious the stock is still in lock down with several basher types taunting from behind the skirts of anonymity.
Let's see what the news brings.
