RE: Other Canadian Tantalum explorersSometimes I come to this board and it just makes me sad.
I read that the EU has earmarked 14 critical elements and EFG has 3. I read that Commerce and Avalon won't have an easy time getting at their tantalum knowing the roads, the hydro power, and the surface minerals are all in place already.
And I just get melancholy about where this stock price should be. It is astounding, but whaddaya gonna do. It is what it is.
As far as the point about Joe and Mineralfields. There is a lot of history, but the market was never so healthy like it is now that what Joe did stood out like it does now. When he did what he does in 2009 during a crash in the first few months and even last year, the first part of the year was pretty grim, so no one really noticed.
It is really standing out this year because so many non-joe companies are doing so well, even some that really don't warrant strong moves, but have a good supply/demand dynamic.
You can find other co. easy that he is wasting away like DEC, MTB, CDO, with very similar charts. The biggest positive that I can find in the Joe world is the pattern is sell early in the year to get the cash back up, let it run in the spring to get into the ball park of the new flow through warrants, and then sell it off at the end of the year to ensure that the companies need more financing from him. This is familar ground now, but I will describe it again, even though, I noticed that I don't know what I am talking about.
