How short everyone's memory is. Not long ago almost all stocks were selling for what they could fetch. What they were worth in more normal times meant nothing. Many stocks are still under that deleveraging pressure and are not selling anywhere near what in normal times would be considered what they were worth. Lots of money is sitting on the sidelines and refuses to enter the market, and one can hardly blame them.

There will always be a discount because of Ecuador. But this discount will slowly trend towards zero as business conditions improves. You cannot deny that by moving up 300%+ since last fall, some have recognized that DMM has potential and that the situation in Ecudaor has improved. So the stock will move again if the situation improve further. OGR is an interesting speculation, I agree. But I disagree that it is a better speculation. The risk is different and probably greater. The potential reward is not better.
