Oldfool...I don't have the luxury of time to hold indefinately as others may have on this board. No doubt KRY has fantastic potential upside. Personally...if we have no word toward the end of October (the legal deadline for response by Minamb) the downside share price risk as well as the opportunity cost of missing out on other "sure bets" puts me in the position of having to (at the very least) hedge my KRY "risky home run bet" with safer plays that will take advantage of the unfolding fundamentals. If we do not receive either the permit or "official" very positive share price news from Minamb\Mibam within four weeks, I will reluctantly re-think my KRY bet, foregoing the favorable long term tax status I presently have with this stock. I'm not trying to convert you or anyone else. If you can hold long term without spitting up blood, that could very well be a very profitable approach.
