Apology accepted. Actually, there was a Marcos around, at one point he was pumping Black Swan, but he disappeared and anyway he capitalized his "M".

" Perhaps you SHOULD short IPM stock. You and your boss seem pretty convinced that it's scam."

Maybe so, but if I ever shorted a stock (never have...yet), it would more likely be one I follow closely, and on the TSE, since I have no US$ account lately. As for my boss, he is really an asshole, he works me too hard, doesn't listen when I complain, underpays me, and is too cheap to fire me and pay the severance. You see.... I'm self-employed.

And my boss and I are not completely convinced IPM is a scam, no, of course there is a sliver of a chance that they may have traces of precious metals and a process that affords recovery of same, but the chances of an economic recovery are imho extremely remote, and the circular logic necessary to become a true believer is just beyond my interest at this time.

As I mentioned to Zeev, I'm only over here because one of the faithful was consuming my time while I was scanning the Echarters thread last night, it's just like that time you people decided it was Dump on Bill Day. No hard feelings here and I'll go away now........... unless you want to keep it up....

............ cheers ................. marcos
