Greetings folks: Have been here on another board but not posting for close to a year. Edgy of InvestorsVillage (and EdGee of Stockhouse).

Simple answer to your problem - long term no where but up, no worries.
Short term, anything can happen and as you very well see, is happening.
This is the my second most enthusiastic stock after Gold Reserve (GRZ). I mention GRZ not to pump it but to tell you that its share price is so manipulated that ECU by comparison looks benign, so am short term apprehensive but patient with both. ECU used to put out fairly regular drill results and it pumped up the share price. Now they are too busy with establishing a huge resource for the upcomming NI 43-101, hence we the impatient investors are being neglected regarding updates. Good enough excuse?
Just wait for the 43-101 and you will be glad.

(p.s. I will still post at Stockhouse but only on an absolute need basis. I prefer I.V. because ease of use and a fairly large audience. Will read here quite often though.)

Profitable investing to all here, Cheers. Edgy
