RE: Thought of Shore Gold as I read through the foPickin, In a nutshell what you are saying is don't invest in stocks? I'm thinking you are right with that, What drives up stocks is new money, and I don't see much of that since the crash. I for one would love to recoup my losses and get out of it, I suspect there are lots of others in the same situation. We can blame management, fair enough, but there are other culprits, the ones that I bought shares from in the first place, which inevetively boils down to my stupidity.I have learned alot in 5 years of outvesting, a tad too late though. I'd say the jrs. look grim for the next while. What I think may need to happen is the blue chip stocks rise substantialy , and some investors will pull out and invest in cheaper stocks , our day will come with sgf providing there is a mine, but in the meantime we'll be on edge.
