RE: hopskipjumpI also agree that Commerce is a good stock to have these days.
From what I can figure your question about the "at arms length" is about the gold property stuff the company announced. Nothing to do with the tantalum exploration. They must have to make the public aware if a deal is done with a company where there is a common director to avoid conflict of interest. I like that they told it blatently. With a few of these deals out there I bet you never know what is going on in the background.
Speaking of that news release I found it intriguing that Commerce will have work being conducted at its tantalum project and also at the same time having work being conducted at its gold project.
