RE: OP6Absolutely Angel, can't argue with a point in your post. I guess my little more comfortableness comes with having someone close to me actually making the trip to Africa and actually having discussions with the government officials and getting a real gut feel as to what they have. That coupled with the Chinese joining on and the comments from Groves & Moriarty makes me very optimistic. However that being said, nothing is ever guaranteed. You are right about people. One thing that kills good deals are the people that get involved and the greed that has the ability to take over. That is one of the main things that makes me nervous. Not just directed at DLKM, but every stock that has good things going. You have a few investment years on me angel and I can tell by your posts , before this last one, that you have been burned on previous "good deals". I definitely can't argue with your cautious approach. I'm not here to pump this stock nor do I recall ever telling anyone to buy more. That is for each person on their own to decide. Not me. I am here to converse with people like you about the "potential" that this stock has from what I know. I play the more optimistic card because I may have a little more insight than some and that is also just the way I am. I don't get completely hung up if there isn't news every 36 hours on the dot as some do here on this board. I do not think that this company would do anything to break any SEC rules or anything like that so I do not get concerned if "my" timelines are not met on when I think news should come out. If news needs to come out, I am sure that they will release it when it needs to be released. If a week goes by past my timeline, I don't automatically think that Rome is burning and we are all done as someone does here on this board. Besides, we have a nice little circle of opinions here. You are the cautiously optimistic, but holding the company to strict guidelines before you get excited, toby the very detailed on company due diligence and facts and has a steady hand to boot, w256mgr who borderlines on pumping, the basher that briefly showed up, Des the nervous one who may or may not last, me who is the very optimistic with not many concerns over certain details and everyone in between. Makes for a well rounded conversation while we wait.
Time will tell and since my timeline for seeing some spike in the price is towards the end of the year and into next, I am letting the chips fall where they may. I personally have no intention of selling a share anytime before then. Each to their own.You play high risk stocks for the high rewards that come with it. Obviously if there is high risk/reward, there is a higher chance of loss. A chance that I am sometimes willing to take. That is not for everybody though.
