RE: RE: Hmmm. Buy or sell?This is pure speculation on my part, but here are 2 possibilities:
(1) Board has decided to ramp-up promotion of the company and RU is simply not the right guy to do it. DP has been doing many of the IR events and, while better than RU, he is not the right fit either. Company needs a President and CEO who can act as the public face of the company for potential investors. (Kind of like Telfer, Conway, McEwen, Burt, Marrone and Boyd are for their respective companies). While highly competent as an operator and manager, RU is not the right person for this new "public" role and, therefore, has been asked to leave.
(2) Board has decided to move away from the strictly organic growth model and is considering M&As. RU disagrees with this strategic shift and, therefore, must go.
