XME.V on the move up +.07 and supposedly has more potential to go up further and Insiders own 20% with 69 million shares fully diluted.

Well, the way I read it, they don't own the properties yet so don't they need capital to buy/explore?

i read it as they are awaiting approval to begin working on the properties

"Further details on the location of the properties and modes of occurrence of the mineralization will be released upon receipt of approval from the mining authorities. "

hey gdoh, what is your target for min.v? i've done some dd and i think this has potential to have some pretty significant upside. current market cap at only ~30M with almost 5B lbs of copper, pretty damn cheap if you ask me

also, have you heard of ymi.v? copper play in bc with about 4B lbs of copper and ~60M market cap. could this be the next copper mountain or taseko? thats a 10 bagger from these levels if it were to achieve what copper mountain has become, that is to go into production.

question is, which one is most likely to go into production? I kinda like min.v more as it is close to HDI's property in arizona, and as well all know, HDI has a pretty good track record with bringing mines to production.

i would thinnk MIN would do a couple bucks

YMI is too much i only play penny stocks, but i will look at it =]

but i also think CCY is comparable to CUM and at a relatively cheap price atm


YMI meh to much got a better chance with MIN or CCY imo

i hear the SNO is ready to go here shortly and keep an eye on LG

I thought the better indicator was market cap and not the actual price of the stock. in this case, YMI is only around 60M which is still pretty small

also, i took a look at ccy...i think i like MIN better. proven resources at a lower market cap.

noob question here.
I know issuing new shares causes dilution and may decrease the PPS of a stock. What about new issuance of warrants and options though? How does that affect PPS?

New share offering isn't necessary dilutive. Technically, an offering is defined as dilutive if the end result is a decrease in EPS. If the return from the funds raised through the offering is used in an investment that is greater than the firm's subsequent WACC, it would be accretive. In addition, an equity offering may move the firm to a more optimal capital structure that results in a lower WACC; consequently, that would also be accretive.

Check out Qtrade Investor. They are local based here in Vancouver. Commission is $9.95/trade if you have more than $50,000 in assets. 150+ trades per quarter qualifies you for $7/trade. Account opening was super easy; it took me no more than 10 minutes.

I wont be putting in $50k, and wont be doing 150+ trades/quarter.

For TD waterhouse, its $9.99/trade when you make over 30 trades/quarter.

I guess $29/trade for a fairly inactive account is about right.

just bought into encanto potash corp (EPO), a junior corp with around 132mil market cap. NI 43-101 report is due in a few days and past news claims they have resources that are on par with those of Potash One or even better.
Also looking to buy into aurcana corp (AUN), a producing silver company with a 227mil market cap. They just commenced construction on their second mine and production for their currently producing mine is expected to increase substantially this year. Will wait for the dip on this one before buying in.

You can also try Questrade. Commission is from $4.95 to $9.95 depending on how many shares. An order of 500 shares is $5, anything above 1000 shares you are capped at $9.95. I have used electronic fund transfer (EFT) to move money out of Questrade account to my bank account. Usually it takes 2 business day.

I don't particular fancy their platform because I trade often. But if you just trade occasionally, it might be okay for you. By the way $29/trade to place an order is quite bit of money and overtime it eats into your return. Any time you can reduce slippage you should do it.

I'm using it right now, it's great if you need to transfer money fast but the commission is quite rape, I would've saved thousands over the years using a different company

Anyways, has anyone been looking at WMT (West mountain capital) They are fairly low in debt and very small. It's a growing market I assume and they have patents (pollution prevention, treatment of polluted soil etc)

I'm thinking about starting with low amount of shares, less then 500.

QTrade is about $19 + $4 for below $50k accounts and inactive trading so about $6 cheaper then TD.

Im just researching Questrade, they really beat around the bush when
it comes to commissions and fees.

Also, QTrade charges $50 a year in addition to commissions if your
account is less then $15,000.

Just got off the phone from Questrade and looks like it takes the cake.

1 cent per share, minimum $4.95, maximum $9.95, no minimum asset requirement,
no minimum shares requirement.

Guy on the phone was super helpful, sent me an email with his contact info and gave me all the details I needed.

Let's see how it goes with them.

Thanx again Carl Johnson

edit: fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu googled it and their reviews are shit!
