RE:Why not release this weeKIt usually comes down to market sentiment, although people are selling (Which also means someone is buying) you might see money sit on the sideline or not be as bullish when gold/markets are down. With lighter volume due to the long weekend in Canada/USA and gold being down getting results next week would be best. Keep in mind, the company can only sit on material results for a couple of days before the have to release them.
