BBOB,

No kidding. More I think about the consolidation the more I like it. FN is now a prime target for institutions. I couldn't agree more with you that it should be listed on the big board though. My own feelings are the directors want to keep it solely in Canada almost as a nationalistic thing,but that's just my impression.

BTW:Check out the website,they have a neat "tour" comparing the new FN to others for institutional types to peruse.

I couldn't agree with you more. I bought FN and EN last year along with some oil drillers in order to balance my otherwise tech-laden portfolio. For most of that time the Nevadas have been a drag, but this past week they have really helped by rising while the techs fall.

This is my first post here, but I've been a lurker for over a year. I finally ponied up for the SI membership. I want to take this opportunity to thank you all for your observations last year that helped me conclude that the Nevadas were the thoroughbreds of the gold and mineral stocks. Thanks especially to Travelingman and to Bearcatbob.
