RE: FRPI know them well, and yes, they ARE men of integrity. So your suggestion of some wild conspiracy and scheme is, in my opinion, absolutely ridiculous.
It has been a bad week for the market OVERALL. FRP is not the only stock to take a hit. My advice: there is risk in any investment, particularly junior resource stocks. Stop the complaining, stop the whining, take a deep breath, and figure out a strategy to benefit from this drop.
