Lots of good comments here lately. But, that is usually the case.

I like those who have pointed out that AE is playing the ZEN story in a contained manner due to the flak that he received after the last NRs. He is smart enough to see that ZEN is a one of a kind discovery (note the analogies to DF) and, more importantly, has a unique resource (potentially an industry-changing product). When he releases the PEA (and the accompanying NRs) it has to be done for maximim effect.

So, please allow me to speculate why the PEA will be released tommorrow.

A Friday PEA release allows the weekend for the news to digest and the buying desire (frenzy?) to build.

A release this Friday allows for a whole week of buying interest before the Christmas drop-off in the markets.

Friday is the 12th, and 12/12 has that special ring to it that this special news should engender.

JMHO
