Management Everyone knows that mining companies live or die on good management. It only takes one bad decision to run everything into the ground. Is Cote Lake that bad decision? Letwin has sounded off that he expects $2500 gold, and apparently not far away or he would not have said it. If they need that price to make Cote pay, then this could be a long long wait. Letwin, like many "leaders", only sees what he wants, not what could happen - eg a lower, not higher, POG. This means he is a gambler, not a Buffet, and he should go. Maybe Conway left or was pushed because he was too smart for the stumblebums around him, such as Pugliese, in which case I don't expect to make a profit on my shares until POG finally does hit much higher levels. 2015? 2016? 2020? who knows. I had a bad feeling when I first saw Letwin's moustache - what kind of person trims it like that every day? If only I had sold then. It's clear that large traders have lost confidence in the Letwin regime. That is the only thing that can explain the huge dump that is just winding down. Letwin doesn't even talk the talk, never mind walk it. How the heck can he justify receiving 350000 options when the stock is cratering? How about turning those puppies down, if you really care about expense cutting? Show us you care Steve, be a man. Remember what you said in an interview a while back, about buying up company shares? They were $15 then. Well they are a tad cheaper now, so flash some of your own cash pal. The people who hired you should go too - if only there was a way. Meanwhile, go out and kiss some more frogs. Maybe your fairy godmother will show up.
