But yes, one to consider for sure ... not a small outfit, ~140mCdn market cap ... have you ever seen their business translated for the occidental layman? ... [edit] - you know who probably has something of a grip on this one? - Quentin Mai ... although he may not feel free to comment on it, even off the record ... but worth asking him, maybe fgx.v - ralfph, i missed your comment on Francisco last night ... no way are they looking for a financing imho, they shouldn't need to, they've got around two loonies per share in cash [i think? ... better not quote me on that] ... i haven't held fgx for a long time, but intend to before long .... sort of hoping on catching some maybe 5.25-5.50 or so ... not much chance of getting any under 5.00 any more, but then you never know, summer trading can get real thin and stink bids you think are way too low can sometimes catch a few. aur.to - sold a few, and dumped my 3.10s from the other day at 3.15 ... i think they're going to play with the 3.00 margin level, let it close below that ... i'll be bidding around 2.65 to start, then play it by ear
