Yeah Fixer, I'd like to hear what Alex had to say to you in May. Let me refresh the forum with your previous post, first: ===================================================================== Reply # of 4190 Hello Donald DaGold. FYI, A year ago in May I attended the ABX GM in Toronto. I just switched my BXM for ABX. This was around the time that ANZ just ran up over $4 on the CLL/Ojali deal. At the time I was reading your hype about ABX taking the eye off the ball to go after Busang. The 12 mil oz. of Gold...yadda Dadda Da All the hype you were ranting and raving at the time. At the GM, I spoke with Alex Davidson and asked him about the CLL/Ojali project! In his words, "It was uneconomic to mine and would not be pursued any further." This is why I shorted ANZ at over $4 and lived happily ever after. ====================================================================== What I find most curious about this message is that you say you had just switched from BXM to ABX in May. Listen, friend, in May, 1997 you couldn't sell BXM paper to the recyclers. You must have really taking a shellacing. And yeah, you just shorted ANZ at over $4. Antares shares were at about C$2.60 when the bombshell dropped in March. They had already peaked at over C$4 in late February, 1997. I watched in horror as the shares dropped to about C$1.80 before bouncing. All that happened in March. Frankly, if I attribute the same credibility to your account of what Alex is alleged to have told you to your account of stock market successes in Spring, 1997, I feel you will again be selling something short all right...another story very short of the truth. Don P.S. The Jaguars just lost to the Panthers. Now if you want to get pissed about something, that is something to get pissed about.
