a blast from the past...

A history lesson that everyone should pay a lot of attention to IMHO. Im posting this on both HAW & LCY as I have an allotment in both:

Looking through the old Fortesque announcements from approx 2004 onwards (as above), allows you to look forward & draw direct comparisons in regards to tonnages, timeframes & widespead general interest in the stock as it happened at the time quite clearly. I chose that particular announcement as a starting point because it was around that point in time that you can see - by date on the google finance link above - the price of Fortesque started to go from around 0.06 cents in October 2004 to 0.30 cents by January 2005. It also shows the various forms of local & foreign investment that began to show their faces once the cat was out of the bag officially - so to speak - tonnage wise. It's certainly not an actual crystal ball but it's damn near as close as we'll ever get to having one & I have always considered it a very valuable tool to DMOR.

Use it or ignor it - it wont change the outcome for us on our journey but it may help settle some medium / longs from both camps who may be a tad jittery lately due to the lack of news from both companies.

Good luck to all & hold em tight!!!
