I agree on both counts. If AE/BOD/Managment/Insiders did not have a firm hold of a significant number of shares they would have been forced to play the 'all out news at all times' card to try and generate a n upwards stock price. CCB has to play this hand as do 99% of all juniors.

We are lucky in that regard.

My hope was that the timing a stock price surge in ZEN by any means would occur before the final gold bear move (Armstrong is saying fall of 2015 for reumption of Gold bull to around $3K) allowing me to take ZEN profits and ride the next gold wave up. I am sure many are/were thinking something similar. I think Gold may rally a bit in the next few months but it seems it has to fall and/or consolidate a bit longer.
