Re assaysAssays are material whether good or bad. They both will affect the s/p and the more
speculative the stock is, the more effect they will have. Companies can delay public
announcements by seeking further confirmation but whether assays are good or bad,
they can't hold them up indefinately. My guess is they are looking for confirmation
before releasing. The only people who know are insiders. Because its material info,
insiders are banned from trading until they are made public so there is no advantage.
What is going on in the market is pure speculation. That is my understanding.
