I see some disappointment in posts -- on a tired CAA board. I looked back at the CAA / CNX question posted and forward thoughts on both. Makes me think -- you never marry the trade, you just date for a while.
RE: CAA or CNX

Mineshack I have had CAA shares for years and have done very well (.Toriddog) as has Bobcat, Isaya, Manxcan and a few others.
To the CAA - CNX question and a view on mining sector. CAA is a far better investment than the speculative CNX with at least 70% upside in 12 months and possible lawsuit winfall. In exploration plays like CNX you want more than 70% so it must be measured against other speculative plays. So many exceed CNX it becomes a no brainer.
Personally, I did sell off 1/3 CAA above $3.00 in 2011 and since Jan 2012 1/3 of the remainder commencing above $3.00 down to $2.67 last trade. I hold CAA and CNX. I now consider CAA as possible reinvestment verses placing capital elsewhere this summer.
I see exlporation speculation as a mix of ingredients in line to bring results. Start with (1) “the mine flavor of the day (witness all to:--Uranium, ‘Rare Earth’ , Gold-Silver, Graphite)”, next (2) look for working capital -burn rate. Then (3) determine is the company management full of energy, can they promote-finance, (4) where am I starting from – a new mine target, new IPO or new emerging player or an old tired play (5) in too late after a huge market run? Decisions and patience to find some jewells required on juniors.
Plenty to speculate on -- research verses rumors.
Conclusion – if CAA dips below $2.00 I buy some – this is a good hold despite greed on management salaries and the 6 year head shaker lawsuit-- may settle!!
Not slamming CNX, it could get lucky and should considering expenditures. Mike M has in recent years has spent millions more than other management in search of the mother-lode. It seems CNX is on a gold play AFTER the Gold Rush, the FOX is in the Den and COLES CREEK will never become a RIVER, as it will be circled by West Coast First Nations.
Better to risk capital on other plays and other flavors. Wish you all well and good trading, Manxcan
