RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: Hedging

RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: HedgingIMHO .. they should leave some portion unhedged ... astute investors treat MFC as a going concern ... it is not going to close shop so to speak ... we know the stockmarket is a gyroscope ..lol ... but on a longer trend of more  than 12 months it is alway heading up ... the reasons are obvious ... more capital ... more people ... more investment ... all monies lead to the stockmarket EVENTUALLY ... we know MFC is here to stay ... therefore some unhegded will make MFC more market oriented ... at any rate look at Barrick Gold ...it was a very hedged company and its stock price was also very flat inspite of booming gold prices ... when it went ungedged 100% the stock price soared ... of course the space MFC is in is different from ABX BUT the rationale is the same .... those silly buggers that wrote MFC is reeling in pain ....MFC is heading for $20 and it will get there and beyond ... I think the management are discussing the pros and cons daily and I hope the visionaries win the argument ... Cheers
