Time to speak up about management and stock price!

If this is not the time to say something, when is? The stock price dropped from .78 to as low as .55 today. This is not only because of the weak Venture market. This is because 2,760,000 shares of flow-through private placement stock became free trading on 14 March. In case you have forgotten, here is the private placement news https://www.cfo-star.com/wp/clifton-star-resources-announces-the-closing-of-the-brokered-flow-through-private-placement/

 
CFO has dropped 25% in just 3 weeks since the placement stock became free trading on 14 March.
Flow-through investors are notoriously disloyal. They are in it for tax benefits and nothing more. Clifton Star president Michel Bouchard should have known this when he accepted almost 3 million shares worth of flow-through money. It was poor judgement to do a placement on a flow-through basis and this decision was like an act of sabotage against the stock. Sorry to say.
 
Now let's talk about Clifton Star's value compared to other companies. In the videos on the Clifton Star website, Mr. Bouchard likes to say the company is undervalued compared to its peers. Right now the market cap is just $22 million for a company with 3.9 million ounces of 43-101 gold resources in Quebec.
I figure the stock price should be north of $2.00, even in this market, based on nearly 4 million ounces in the ground and just 38 million shares outstanding. Mr. Bouchard never mentions why Clifton's valuation is so far below its peers. Could it be poor management including the horrible decision to do a flow-through placement? I tried to talk to Mr. Bouchard in recent months but he never returned my calls. Recently I called the company again and found out Mr. Bouchard is on a long vacation. The stock price is plunging like the Titanic and he takes off on an aeroplane and goes on a long vacation. I would like to start some dialogue here and suss out some answers. Does Mr. Bouchard return your calls and does he act like he cares about the shareholders at all?

Compare charts of GDXJ and CFO, and you will see.  Other gold juniors got hammered as well.

Sevushka wrote that other gold juniors got hammered, like GDXJ. I compared them and over the same period of time, GDXJ is down 6.6% while CFO is down 25%.  jolgas2

You are right, if you disregard volatility of both instruments.  Hard to be optimistic during capitulation.

Recently I wrote that part of the reason for the recent brutal drop in the stock price is the the choice by Mr. Michel Bouchard and the board of directors to do a private placement on a flow-through basis.   https://www.cfo-star.com/wp/clifton-star-resources-announces-the-closing-of-the-brokered-flow-through-private-placement/ Those 2,760,000 shares of flow-through private placement ...more

I don't know??  Those stock options were priced at double the market price.  They also proved to be very lucky raising money for the company at 1.25 rather than waiting til the price would most likely have been half of that, thus saving 50% of the dilution. I guess i'm a "glass is half full kind of guy". You may not like flow throughs but in Quebec they are the most ...more
