RE: RE: RE: RE: Gold Royalty Companies better infl

The recent drop accompanied the GLW acquistion along with the gold retracement. Its tough to evaluate the new and expanded FNV. Metal Augmentor and 'Hyperinflation' have attempted valuing Royalties, but a simple forward PE seems insufficient.
I just keep in mind the returns Lassonde delivered with Newmont during the worst gold price years ever, and what he's done here since it's inception. Keeping in mind his World Gold Council time, I think he is the consumate insider, despite his halting Quebecois accent, which I believe he uses to his advantage to be underestimated, like Chretien did.
What do you think is the intent of these small lot trades? To provide liquidity? To prop it up? Push it down..??
