thpw - it's treated me pretty well for the few months since buying first shares, can't complain, many a momo play did me worse ... the thing with Thorium P is they have the inside track to using up some really ugly nuke materials, of which there are too much around, turning it into power while making no weapons-grade products and very little hazardous waste ... all this in existing plants to start - safer, cleaner, cheaper ... high-test board, some grey hair but some grey matter as well, and connected ... things like this become momo plays at certain points in their progress, my approach has always tended to being in early enough to get the full benefit of momo, and a lot more besides

Pd - a guy i know has physical palladium, sizeable percentage of p.f. he says, bought probably five years ago now, soon as it came back under 200 following the 2000 spike ... said then and since that long-term he liked it better than gold, personally i think this is because he just likes to be different no matter what ... but he did call the 2000 spike before it happened and also the top, more or less, according to another fellow, and he's made other great calls in the past [says now silver to 25 soon] ... i have a very few of the pdl.wt, as we discussed privately, not based on much thought or research though, more the result of following onepath's bio last week then indulging a whim ... i recall not thinking much of the company in the 2000 momo frenzy and after, but not why exactly, maybe it was just overpriced for their grades and costs

bmc.v - nickel has been out of fashion for a while, was less than a year ago a momo play, which meant that was a good time to sell it, but now nickel stocks have come way back, i bought back some of my wife's Brilliant a while ago, better than twice the stock for the money, odd thing is that while their metal's price has been cut in half, they get twice as much for it, since their hedges are long gone now and they've executed well

lth.v - biggest thing in the Lithic release yesterday, imho, is that they'll be drilling around the old Utah mine, grades were high to silver there, upside significant ... verifying Cyprus data on Crypto probably means something, but is expected ... zinc completely out of favour, outfit seen as slow, probably can be added to in the .30s, by the next time it has momo it'll be a double from there
