RE:What is driving this blast to higher levels?

RE:What is driving this blast to higher levels?I've been following this stock for a few years. I think it's a combination of things: (1) the most obvious, the drastic increase in metal prices, particularly their top two copper and zinc; (2) the higher metal prices are improving their chances of avoiding bankruptcy... if you haven't been following they announced liquidity issues back in October due to a bunch of operational issues; (3) the more time that passes with high metal prices and no bankruptcy announcements, the more time they have to get operations back to normal; and (4) the more time that passes without them announcing bankruptcy, the more probable they were able to make their next interest payment which I estimate was due in January. For the last reason in particular I think we'll continue to see an uptick through January. If they do survive without making any major moves, the current share price is a true bargain. I think people are just starting to see the risk-reward potential here. As risk reduces, the price increases. Pretty basic stuff.
