I bought in high last year when it was Pacifica. I guessed wrong (failed is a better word) in predicting Zinc/Pb supply - along with the melt down in the Juniors. Ni hurt me too ala FNI.

Regarding SWN, my amateur thoughts were the obvious - Asia growing, China building cars and needing Zn for galvanizing.

I knew their property was remote and a big gamble, but thought if the Asian engine stayed strong, maybe someone would buy them out or JV due to what SWN supposedly has - one of the largest deposits of Zn worldwide.

I've sold most of my stock due to disgust, but I always like to hear what others who are not agenda driven have to say about stocks I own.

Maybe with the talk of Zn mine closings, a turnaround can occur. My confidence in predicting the economic future is pretty much shot now days.
