Kasier says hope for $2.50, but be patient Champion Resources Inc CHL Shares issued 13,950,440 Jul 14 close $0.21 Wed 15 Jul 98 In the News John Kaiser, writing in the July 8 issue of his Bottom-Fishing Report, says political turmoil in Guinea-Bissau has cast a cloud over Champion Resources' Farim phosphate project. Mr. Kaiser notes that Champion hopes to do a deal on Farim, preferably with a major chemicals producer. Phosphate is used in fertilizer production. Guinea-Bissau has a history of civil conflict and political instability, and Mr. Kaiser hints this may have something to do with Champion's long slide in price. CHL also has only $300,000 in working capital. As gloomy as things may be, Mr. Kaiser says the stock, 22 cents at the time of writing, could go to between $2 and $2.50 if all goes well. By that, Mr. Kaiser means if the Farim deposit is proved substantial and fetches a strong price from a chemicals company. The letter writer says in the current bear market, resource juniors may look like they are down and out, but can quickly spring back to life. Still, bottom-fish accumulation "should not be done with any short-term expectations." (c) Copyright 1998 Canjex Publishing Ltd. canada-stockwatch.com |
