I posted quite some time ago that I thought TDC were taking their time in putting this PA together to wait for more favorable market conditions. The fact that all of the the problems that have occurred in the past several months have been a bonus, and as JP has editorialized, created a perfect storm. If Dr Webb was consulting with JP, I would surmise that he would have advised waiting until the end of the "creamy filling" timeframe to raise the curtain on this show. Who reading this forum is not aware of the huge macro issues bearing down on us? Whilst we don't know what order the dominos are going to fall, they are falling none the less. I hope that TDC can maneuver through the coming minefield of acquisitions and build real value for us shareholders before being acquired. Really the best case would be that TDC would possibly survive intact and have a multi million oz producing mine.
