About MAT's trading halt The company has done this in the past and has always been on the upcoming news in a positive tone.
This halt is particularly interesting since the company hasn't presented news in over six months. I'm referring to direct news from Matamec not their joint partnership news from Canada Strategic Metals Inc
In my opinion, I believe this halt is based on possibility of 2 events. The first one being the finally the satisfaction with First Nation and the environmental issue. I still believe this will turn out in the company's favor since millions have been spent and I'm sure Toyota having an interest would've foreseen any hurdles long ago.
So this comes to my second reason and a very probable why the halt and it may be the news that we have been waiting for, for months.
The company has noted in the past that operational timeline is 2016 and the company would have to secure a financial arrangement of various sorts to move into this final stage.
Folks! I believe we may finally get this long awaited news on a financial package.
Now, I'm just ending the week with a hypothesis, so take it all in good stride and lets hope for the best.
Have a good day
