RE: RE: Cash and debt

RE: RE: Cash and debtOne more thing to think about (not bashing, I bought a bit of these 2 but sold off most recently, still own a little bit), but SF and WCU seem to be 2 of the worst performers out of all the Sask plays (WER, WGF, GXS, CDB, SWR, SMI, BTT, AIX, GM, and even SD is on par, yet apparently has NO cash), and the bids/asks look manipulated whenever I check in on it IMO. Just some things to watch for.

There's more active plays out there with a lot less "questions" surrounding their operations IMO, and the others at least move up and down fairly regularly on decent volume, instead of just sitting at the same price everyday, or moving a half cent up and down on thin volume for the same day trader.

Finally, at the current price of SF or WCU, you'd expect to see some substantial insider buying if there was anything to the story, but the insider activity is barely worth mentioning. I've always believed that if the insiders aren't buying at these prices, why should anyone else have any confidence in the stock.

All my opinion of course, but based on some fairly thorough homework. GLTA
