No match found using 'southwestern' on the otcbb lookup - otcbb.com But then it also couldn't find 'minefinders' which has bb ticker of mneff ... yahoo symbol lookup can't find 'southwestern' on the bb but can find mneff - ca.finance.yahoo.com ... [edit] - ah, vt's got it Claude, your conservative scholar approach continues to pay off, today with Francisco ... i feel so stupid, had a very few and wanted more but kept being just a little too cheap, then one day a few weeks ago when it came to my previous bid the order had expired and i didn't notice till it was too late ... shoulda just bought a full position last spring and tuck it away safe ... well no tragedy i guess because nickels largely went to Corner Bay instead, but still one wants to participate, it's embarrassing to miss the good ones So which are the next takeout candidates? ... bay.to, suf.to, mfl.to, maybe? ... salut

As a relative newbie, I have a question to the thread. Why are the junior miners preferred? I see two advantages to the big cap miners like NEM: 1. When POG takes off, the funds and mass-market investors will pile into the big caps 2. The big caps are marginable and optionable. David Morgan, author of the silver investor is recommending the big cap miners now, once they move then he says the second and third tier will take off later. This is sort of a devil's advocate question, as I subscribe to Claude's newsletter and already own BAY, MFL,and FGX (thanks Claude!)
