Ed, no cabal, it is quite normal with every stock I have followed that some people know the facts before they are put on the wire. I am not implying any leak from GPGI. Leaks as you call these occur without necessarily being due to wonton actions by companies. It could be Twifford barber spreading the news after he saw an unusually large amount of "gold dust" in Twifford hair. It could be Palmer's drinking buddies (if he drinks, or drinks in others' company) that noticed a strange smile on his face. Hey, it could be the fuel delivery boy seeing that GPGI doubled their fuel consumption recently. It could be the guys that repaired the ball mill and saw the unmitigated enthusiasm. Each one of these now tells their only very close friends (some ten of them) and before you know it you have a stampede. (VBG). Zeev

Ed, bullfeathers! This is no latent behavior, look for the news. <<you poor fellows>> BTW, don't weep for me, I bought lots of stock near 1/2.

<<that news is leaked by GPGI and you poor fellows are the last to know.>> C'mon, Ed. This company has a well-established history of having providing private individuals with news releases that were posted on this thread prior to their posting on the web site. I can't believe that all of the sudden 350,000 shares are trading on nothing new on the fundamental front. Having said that, I find this buying much more convincing that something positive is going on than all of the posts asserting the same (when the price was going down) on this thread.

Ed, It appears "investor sentiment" has turned thanks to the confidence gained by Mr. McKay's post IMO. A lot of us small guys have been sitting on the peripheral waiting to jump in at any sign of a technical breakout. I have also added, recently, to my position initially established three years ago.In addition, as a long term investor, I look for stocks that can provide exceptional returns over a period of time.There are many stocks that can net a "5 bagger of ten bagger" over a period of time. Then there are those stocks that could net "50 bagger +" plus over time. These, IMO, deserve a more carefully scrutiny due to the potential risks but the risks must be weighted against the potential stellar returns. I see a stock here whose potential returns greatly outweigh the inherent risks and I plan to continue increasing my position over time. By the way, thanks for your timely and informative posts Regards, Eric
