RE:It appears to be only miner in red AGAIN I actually agree with you on this one. No company (in any industry) should have over 1 billion shares outstanding. At least a 1:3 consolidation should be considered. But, there are many dimwitted individuals who fashion themselves as "investors" who don't understand the simple math behind a share consolidation and once it happens they have to sell what they believe are "profits" (actually phantom profits due to the consolidation) which has the ultimate effect of driving down the share price and market capitalization. This is why you usually get pushback on the idea of a consolidation, but most of us probably realize one is needed at this juncture.
