Maybe the date of record for the special meeting has no significance.
  Kaiser hopes Germans have Scorpion on menu                                                                                                              Scorpion Minerals Inc                                                   SCP Shares issued 27,769,327                                 Dec 13 close $1.45 Tue 14 Dec 99                                                   In the News John Kaiser, writing in a Bottom-Fish Action for the week  of  Nov.  29  to Dec.  3,  says  Scorpion  Minerals  surprised the market with its Frankfurt Stock Exchange listing. Mr. Kaiser recommended Scorpion in December,  1998, at  31  cents, and again in June, 1999, at 49 cents. In the current report, the letter writer says Scorpion has done little this year besides  ride  on the  coattails  of  Mike  Farrugia's  travelbyus.com  and  Martlet  Venture Management Internet plays. Mr. Kaiser says the Frankfurt move reveals  that Mr.  Farrugia's promotional network extends into the Germany, "a country of conservatives capable of going absolutely nuts if the investing  bug  bites them." Whether or not the Germans want to bite Scorpion remains to be seen. Scorpion's main assets are $7.9-million cash, one million travelbyus shares and  four  million  MacMillan  Gold  shares. Mr. Kaiser rates Scorpion as a technical hold, saying when a recommendation keeps going up for no apparent reason,  hang  onto  it.  For  now, there is no story that would underlie a speculation cycle, he adds. (c) Copyright 1999 Canjex Publishing Ltd. canada-stockwatch.com   |
