RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Someone will let the cat out of the bag.....The internet is a vast resource that was not there 40 years ago. Back then people used to rely on advice of thier broker and the newspaper and the hard copy of the annual report. Oh and you could always go to the library lol. And you could always call investor relations but do you think they're going to give you info that's not already public? Now EVERYTHING is there on the internet if you commit the time to look. Financial reports present and going back decades, articles and interviews from hundreds of relevant people, experts..geologists, investors, economists, company executives, politicians, journalists, historical articles on any region of the world, including old mine sites, the companies that operated them and why they failed, the history of all the current players including thier successes and failures, the culture and political and economic dynamics, past and present, of any part of the world, you name it ITS ALL THERE. Read, look, and listed carefully to interviews with important (or knowledgeable) people and use your judgment to decipher if what they are saying is valid. It's an invaluable tool for the small retail investor. If you have personal connections in industry congratulations but most people don't. And even there, you can be misled if you speak to some company insider because they may have a bias or sometimes they can be clueless too. Or maybe talk to your friends? I don't think so. And by the way, I have 40 years engineering experience in heavy industry and degrees in engineering and business. So Mr likeke, if you think it's a good idea to advise people NOT to use the internet to gather information and educate themselves if they feel they need to, I can say with no doubt you are a first class ahole no matter what your status or background is.
