evening all, hi edutain and bizz

edutain,

I would have thought that at such a highly watched space such as Diggers - cb would want to tell in 30mins as much as he could to generate some smoke and dazzle.

So, he would obviously say briefly the same story as the last 12 months but the added stars would be the aquiisition (assuming we are a shoe in) and of course the mount and TI.

On or around this time - maybe even right on the day - we will probably get a spike upwards - if that spike is like many other spikes we have had in the last couple of years - it will be an easy entry (if one doesn't try to pick an absolute bottom) - and an easy exit - assuming one is after a short term turnaround. Even if one misses the top - there should be a reasonable percentage in it. - It just seems to me that the timing is immenient in the next few weeks. It is of no interest to me - unless there is a major spike on limited good news - then I might possibly trade a few in - but I doubt it - I haven't been tempted in a long time - I have only been tempted to steadily add to the position.

bizz - there has been what appears to be a slightly niggly schoolboy aggressive tone to a couple of your recent posts to me - I may be wrong, but I doubt it - have I offended you in the past? If I have, my apologies - I can't remember intentionally trying to injure - in fact my only memory of your posts is positive - I may of course had some sort of jibe - but it would not have been personal.
I have reread my post starting this thread - and I can't see a problem.

This is a forum - a place for stating facts AND opinions - if you want facts only, then I suggest a forum is not the place for that.

Of course I realise we have a rule that states that we should ann. to the market any material info. ------------- do you think there was no material info. around about the aquisition weeks and months before it was announced?

Do you think there are drill results for TI that would be price sensitive at the moment - that have not been released because they would create a false impression?

The answer to both of those should be glaringly obvious.

CB will want to say something about TI - he may be guarded, he may not be as guarded as he might be.

We may go into halt that morning and announce at or before 10 - and then he can speak right during the excitement.

Who knows? What we do know that is in with a big chance - is that he will want to say 'something' - and that some of that will be about TI - and if it follows in the line of the words that have been described to do with TI before - "exciting" etc. -- then if the words are crafted wisely - we will be in for a show.

Of course we also know that most of what is said to generate emotion (read excitement in this case) is his body language - hence, the words will not be as important as the rest of the communication.

Sorry if that is too much opinion for you and sorry if it is stargazing - but that's what we do when we invest - we try and stargaze - to live in the now but to think in the future.

Please let me know if I have offended you and I will try and make amends, othewise I have little tolerance for what appears to be pettiness and what amounts to close to baiting.

have a great evening all

Pinto
