Heres another question, Coalspur Mines (CPT), I already own some shares, but would like to buy in more. The mine hasnt begun production yet, and the share price has fluctuated from 1.59 to 2.01 in the last few months, currently at 1.81. Majority of my shares were purchased at 1.36, should I wait to see if it dips back down to buy in more, or just get some whenever I can?

Bought another 800+ shares of CLL @ 1.08 to round off my investment to 5k.

I see CPT is up 5% now. It's tough. If you feel there are no downsides on the horizon and your target price is much higher, might be worth jumping in.

What are you thoughts on CPT?

Went to the gym this morning and forgot to short Carnival. Down 14%

CLL: Holy what an emotional morning lol Jumped up to 1.19, then tanks to 1.04 lol.

I did pick up a "few" more shares just to round my numbers off... the swing in price is not justified by the volume but thats just my opinion, seems a lot of people have taken the position of holding this stock... the run up to this point may have been a result of WFCI picking up shares to reach their 10% share stake.

Just hanging out waiting on news for CLL, should have picked up URRE at .80, had a good morning today +17%.

Don't know if anyone caught this but CLL is trying to have the road between the refinery and mall property closed in Great Falls, likely for the sake of expansion, and to this point has received support from the city...

Panel votes to close part of road near refinery | Great Falls Tribune | greatfallstribune.com

Yeah my target price is a lot higher, but the trend seems to be rise and fall, so I'll wait for the next fall.

i'm thinking about dumping CUU to buy CLL instead... I'd be taking a loss on CUU but do you guys think CLL has a better chance of going up? Or just hold onto CUU until the PFS release?

I can't speak about CUU, but CLL has just dropped about 15% in the last two days making it very attractive. There are two possible upsides to CLL

1) Quarterly earnings March 15th is expected to be positive
2) Company is well positioned to be taken over after cleaning out the majority of it's executive team. CLL is no longer pursuing a JV and speculation is they will be bought out at a minimum of 1.50 per share.

If a hardware maker like Samsung doesn't want anything to do with the software side, the same probably goes for other players like HTC etc. Can't really think of anyone who would buy them now unless it's for their patents.

Guess some of my mutual funds will continue to suffer from this.

Son of a bitch lol Should have bought that god damn URRE .80 on the 13th... now trading at a 1.05.

On a side note.. taking some interest in Canadian Zinc Corp, CZN... trading at .63, NAV of .40 and was trading as high as 1.35 within the last year.

are u talking about uranium resources. ?

uranium companies have been doing well last few weeks, so i dont think its company specific?

I own both cameco and UUU which I picked up in december since I've been following those two for awhile. just sold UUU today, holding on to Cameco, but might consider selling tomorrow.

I'm in your boat, my co-workers have been following CUU for a long time, they think they will sell out in the $2.50 range, which I think is way too optimistic

I got in just under $1, but I'mma hold it out till the BFS.

too much hype built into CUU.

everyone and their kitchen sink is expecting a rich buyout. You think Teck will even bother? Look at Ivanhoe Mines. Rio Tinto will not be dragged into a fight for Ivanhoe to the point IVN has to drop their poison pill.

Teck has a lot of time and the longer they wait the greater a war chest they will have to deploy. I interviewed there recently, one thing came out during the session with one of the VPs - savvy.

I totally agree with this. Everyone is expecting a buyout, good news good that. If it doesn't go up to par which in most cases it doesn't unless you have some good insider news, you can never be too sure. If the news keeps getting delayed the stock will only consolidate until the news pops and if it sucks you can guess where CUU SP is headed.

Connacher Announces Future Direction

Spoiler!


Wonder how this will affect share value in the near term... consider it was Goldman Sachs who presented the initial buyout offer to Connacher.

My belief is that the current BOD is indeed interested in selling the company, and is taking the right steps to make sure they get top dollar.

...As "long" as it takes... for now lol.
