It seems to me that the serious buyers of THPW come to the market sporadically-mop up a million or two shares at a slightly elevated price and then stand back-allowing the price to drift back towards a 33/35cent range.I feel that the recently updated prospects for the company ,allied to the the present share price movements,are massively positive.

Must be two of us left at least, i haven't sold a share since september, got maximum shares ever now, no intentions of trading short-term any more ... but it would be good to see them collect that money, promises kind of wear out after a while when they're not fulfilled ... as for recession and hard times in general markets, those things will matter only in the very short term, provided that these guys can perform ... if they can't, it's a boat no tide can float

FWIW, I've been rather disappointed in the performance of uranium stocks, even before the current tanking of the market as a whole. I reported here that I sold all my individual uranium stocks, i.e. MGA, FRG, URRE, URZ, etc. and plowed all the proceeds into the nuclear ETF, NLR. Recently sold my entire holding in NLR for a loss and plowed all those proceeds into my ETF BRIC holdings, i.e. INP, RSX, FXI and EWZ. Was very surprised to see my portfolio bottom line actually go up, despite the recent carnage. Will get back in NLR when I see the relative strength and momentum of uranium shares increasing. Am intrigued about THPW. Noted it seems to be holding well between .34-.38. JMHO and definitely not any recommendation to buy or sell anything mentioned here.

Unwound all my shorts a while back. Got to say thanks to you all for that. It's a remarkable company...selling pills of what looks like aluminum foil to sick nuclear plants. And getting some doddering old diplomat with side wiskers and a tux to push the product. Reminds me of Dr. Slocum's Heart Palpitation and Short of Breath Conditioner. ....Only that chit was fun to take as it was mostly opium and coke. ..ahh the good old days when you could at least get really fked up while you got fleaced. Uranium has been oversold for months. The boom was last year. If you got profits take em. I hear some of the big boys are carrying some derivative risk as well. The mines may be there, but who will get the product out of the hole is another story. Don't that sound familiar? Recession is a word for people who watch TV. The words I'm hearing are Great Big gd fking Disaster. Deficits don't matter and neither does the dollar. What matters is keeping the jerks on Wallstreet happy and playing games with arabized bees in the straits of Hormuz. The way it looks now is that we will be lucky if Yellowstone goes ballistic and takes our minds off of the unwinding of the world as we thought it was..... (Thorium....I know it's a crude, un funny, chop job of a comment, but then that's who I am...)
