svg.v - it traded at .02 last may, then at .115 in august ... plenty of room there to take partial gains and reload cheaper, add shares organically over time, without any need to catch bottoms or tops [except for bragging rights] ... meantime you're not worried that it will turn into some sort of Howe Street paper machine, with that bunch running the show, it's an honest toiling-geo effort, flawed of course like all human endeavour but considerably less so by comparison I love this sort of play, especially when they're prospect generators, working primarily with OPM ... bought first shares of ktn.v in early '07, paid .68 for starters then averaged down fairly large .60-63, if memory serves ... within a year [or two?], got a triple, let enough go to make the rest cheaper than house-money ... caught some back next tax-loss season, took moderate gains not long after ... didn't work every year, but most of them gqc.v - bought first shares at .35 on Vimy day '07, 09apr, thanks to heinz44's repeated mentions ... Juno Beach day 06jun it printed 1.55 on Las Animas news, bingo ... then a whole series of smallish buys when it seemed cheap [which was the case more often than not, lol], some stuck underwater for longish periods, but at least seven or eight times ended up solidly in the green ... saved my arse in 2012, along with a uranium drillbit play, eso.v, even though i sold too much of both too early tuo.v - i diddled with Teuton in smaller ways, most of those years, but was generally leery because of the GT being quite a high cost area ... 'Way the hell and gone up north', one old-timer friend used to say ... but roads and hydro lines get closer, mines start up near, the situation changes ... still expensive compared to whn.v right beside a main highway, say, but the trend is positive, and exploration is a long-term business anyway You do need to eat right, drive careful, try to not get caught for any of the more serious felonies, etc, to get full benefit of this approach ... 'I think it's gonna be a long long time' - exactly right Messrs Shatner and Taupin ... but the years pass anyway, one way or the other, whether you do anything with them or not Keep at it long enough, and random luck brings you bragging rights as well - in 2015 [or 2016?] i nailed absolute bottom on ktn.v, or maybe a half-penny from it, by seeing the Northair takeover news and buying inm.v before it had reacted ... only few shares, but then loaded up not much higher, it turned out another many-bagger with the warrants and all ... hooo-hah, the sort of thing that sustains your interest through the long dull 'buy opp' periods This little pullback in the sector is healthy, we needed it, were getting into a 'too much too soon' unsustainable situation ... betcha it doesn't last much longer, few days, few weeks at the most
