I haven't adjusted the shares issued, based on Russett's comments, but I thought I would a look at the diamond stocks in my list after the first 14 trading days of the year. (Buy declining market cap:)

Forgive my adding CDC (China Diamond Corp) formerly PAR, and EET as they have no Canadian diamond interests (I don't follow them closely, but others on SI do.)
I don't think TAH can hold it's current SP for very long. It looks to be due for a consolidation.
I would say ACA has some room to move up, and are more likely than TAH to have a pleasant surprise for shareholders (IMHO).
SGF could also be an underdog. They are at the minibulk stage and have a huge resource, but of questionable economics. If the economics are good, DeBeers would want it.
THe only Westwind pick to drop this year is MTX. If this comes out with a good news release, this will explode. However its a gamble, with no convincing data shown.
My dog is TWG. I expected much more, but it looks like they are spread a bit thin, perhaps hedging their bets, perhaps milking us Shareholds for years. I was hoping to sell it on the next spike, but its long in coming.
DDN, SRM, GEM & DSP are all good bets (which I also own). The report picked stocks that many of us saw as the best bets, or perhaps the wheat as WIll would say.
