RE:RE:RE:Change of harteit seems to me that yamana trading is dominated by US action...we Canucks are small fry. Therefore because of hedge funds/ day traders etc the trend occurs regardless of fundamentals and such things as US Cad exchange rates, even though there is no mining in the US. 20 % down in a month does happen for no reason. A chapter in Divide by Matt Taibbi describes a bear raid by US hedge funds on Fairfax Financial FFH.T. Quite instructive of attitudes and techniques. Once they smell blood the attacks can be vicious. I dont know the short interest in YRI and I have not seen negative news here, so it may not be a bear raid. However yri sets itself up for shorts by running such a loose ship, so high volatility is to be expected. Buying opps may come again if it keeps going down. Buy wisely.
