RE: Blockbuster news....CalifDreaming, You emphasized all the right points. Particularly the sentence which you underlined, "The results to-date of the re-evaluation have exceeded our expectations and we hope to confirm the results of the U7 test during the course of next week."
Next week! I understand that there is a degree of of risk at every stage of testing, but honestly, with all of the hinting news that has come out prior to this, what are the odds of these next test results being positive? I would give it at least a 90% chance. The only rational reasons I can think of for so many people exiting their positions at the given share price, is that A. They feel the risks from market conditions exceed the possible gains from next weeks testing results. Or B, they think that next weeks test results will come in negative. I have a hard time buying into either of these options, and unless these investors plan on buying back their shares before then, it seems absurd that anyone would jump off a stock where there is great news anticipated only one week away! In the long run, investors in any junior company assume large risk for the potential of substantial profit, and this certainly holds true for Mira. However, for shorter term investors, Mira is sitting in a rare position where the risk is minimal, yet there is potential profits sitting a week or so out. Sure the SP will likely oscillate in the .30's until news breaks, but the day news hits the SP will be in the .40's
I've been wrong before, and I will be wrong many times in the future, however this particular set of circumstances seems to tell me it would be advantageous for any investor to hold on to their shares, at least until there is a time where there is greater risk in holding. I am more than open to critique and suggestions, because if there is something I am missing, I would love to be informed!
I'm long on MRP, the greater portion of my shares will be held until production.
