I am in Los Angeles these days and that accounts for my (temporary ) silence. The time difference drives me nuts.

My opinions are unchanged.

I still believe KNB has a brilliant future. I got in at 1 5c late last year, before KBB became a market darling. I created a thread "Why KNB?" shortly after. At the time there was zero interest in KNB. I spoke to Hedley Widdup from Lion Selection Group around September last year, he was very bullish at the time.

At one point I owned in excess of 3% of KNB. Thanks to dilution, my position has been watered down to barely 1%.

I foolishly sold 2m shares early this year for 3c and watched the share price triple in the months that followed. The recent increase in director buying helps me sleep well. I'm still on the register and plan to stay.

In defence of Datt & Gu, let's not forget how they stood up to an overly-rapacious board that awarded themselves benefits which they had not earned.

I am not sure what's going on at Datt Capital. I wrote to them last week & hope to hear back. I notice they've exited a few of their positions recently, and I don't know why.

Anyone know if Peter Proksa is still in the Top 10? At one point he was KNB's biggest shareholder.

GLTA. I'm still a true believer. As far as I'm concerned, nothing has changed & the gold is still there, buried deep underground.
