we would be back at these levels. The ROF looks very good in spite of the usual bickering to be expected amongst interested parties. I think that NOT is doing it's low profile game until coming out of the woodwork will make a difference. In the meantime I think that NOT as well as most of the stocks will sucumb to market forces. Most of the numbers are inclined toward poorer market conditions and economies in general, thus most will respond to this. Those that fall in love with a stock and wait it out will see their capital taking the same curves as the index charts. Hopefully when things clear the account balances will recover. Interesting that EAG took a big jump above 20% from a reported hole with good results while actual producers dropped like rocks. Not much sense there. EAG then began to drop but is holding it's own today which isn't unexpected given that nothing goes straight down or up. Volumes are very shallow so stocks will be susceptible to further drops with market infirmity particularly over this summer which is just beginning along with the continued eco-political instability. But then there's always the wild card.
