Yes I think there's alot more going on in alt. like plug etc than the market is picking up on. I even dusted off bldb ha. As far as the board I also think that there has been alot of damage to portfolios and alot of mental anguish created. I know the hit I took on Grandich's picks but also elect to not lie down. The pharma/bio area is providing me with returns but also healing some of the damage caused by this hideous metals market. I'm looking late dec. to add or should I say avg.some of my holdings in base metals. I still believe in co's like excelsior and sunridge but they;ve become just that much longer of a hold now.Anyhow I'm excited at least that this last drawdown in gold may be the final and looking to slowy piece together a pm portfolio. The one thing I still can't get used to is trading these bios. Some have no earnings, they've reverse split to a few mill os and just totally foreign things they create for products.....but man unlike having tons of diamonds or huge deposits of gold....these momo players drive them on the slightest news. Anyways it would be nice to trade some mining shares again. It'll be like slow motion..lol....unlike bios where you have to on constant vigil and always reading, searching and yepper they drive em down as hard as they drive em up...well I'm sure liking diamond plays for the future also.....too bad theres so much dark cloud over pereigrene pdg....it's either a great buy or theres not enough stones....should have a tell soon. Well I'll hang if you are, just don't have time to post all my reading material like I used to...maybe in time.....but some of those targets on the bios, I just have to see if they play out. Since you don;t play them much now and there is no other interest I won't bother posting them but will keep vigilant for the paint to finally dry on the metals..lol
