RE:One thing I noticed with this stock.Not sure I would call it "accumulation" so much as averaging down.  I have been tempted, but I find that it usually isn't a good idea unless or until there is evidence of a turnaround.

Even if there had been some PR indicating that managmeent was cutting their salaries, that might indicate to me that somebody over there is serious enough for me to average down.  I think they're just waiting for the bloodshed to end in the natural resource market before they do anything in earnest.  Financing is expensive now given the conditions.  So I tend to agree with that move (if that's what they're doing).  But if they're going to sit on their behinds and not even acknowledge shareholder inquiries, then they should receive commensurate pay for doing nothing.

Go get a temp job at one of those American pig dog food trough whopper restaurants, Andre.  Stop burning shareholder cash until you have something (that you want) to do for the company.
