I reckon the old saying is you usually never buy at the bottom or sell at the top of the market all the time.... unless you are super Lucky.
So it is just a down time on-market. Nothing has happened especially at AVB to cause a downer, but general market sentiment affects everything and drags it down.
I am still recovering from Touro. Had huge expectations of hitting solid Ni... those beautifully coloured surveys and samples... (sigh) and ... well... then finally vague drill results that suggested .. not much!
But in perspective, it is the copper that is the main factor. Discovered and undiscovered. The Ni was just bit of spec fun on the side. NOT the main game by far.
Plus the Ni is there somewhere, just not in that spot and is not giving up its secret that easily to science. If Ni exploration is farmed out on good terms, then great stuff. It is still a big card in the AVB pack.
Plus the other wildcards like the iron... plus precious metal credits on the side.. and maybe run some cattle on the tenements while exploring to bring in some cash?
Even though all I have, AV's and BOB's, were bought at significantly higher prices I am quite relaxed.... hey what are those bits of fingernail doing on the floor?
