is down .02 cents on above average volume and looking weak; is this how VZ treats their preferred mining partner! If I had my way I would prefer NOT to be chosen as the preferred as it really means nothing from what I can see.

KRY is not the only ones with a weak SP as all VZ players are experiencing uncertainty to which the markets do not like. It is very obvious that VZ is and has been lacking in leadership and if Chavez cares (I am suggesting he does not) he better step up to the plate and show/prove to the international world they are open for business or status quo or worse will prevail. I fear the latter is the probalble outcome.
