RE:Big Picture I believe if they were in desperate need of cash they would monetize the stockpile I'm guessing that the reason they haven't is that they are expecting gold prices to go up as is the case as we speak. If they knew they had $20 mill for example but in a year it could be $30 mill, might as well wait.
In regards to your thought about timing, I agree, in 4-5 years I have a feeling that Cynthia will be well into retirement and sailing away with Roger.
Each day I remind myself "2023 will be Cynthia's swan song"-Roger
ive never had concerns about a BO happening I've only had concerns that it hasn't happened when I wanted it to happen.
in the meantime, I watch stockhouse, Cynthia's LinkedIn and hope that tomorrow is the day.
