also interesting to note is that Russia and China are buying up uranium resources all over the world
and most of them are planned to start production in 2013
even UUU.TO is 51% controlled by Russia's Rosatom

It's down to $1.63. I believe the CEO is planning to buy it for $3 a share. He holds about 3 million of its 14.8 million shares. The company has a lot of cash on hand I think $20 million? when the company mkt cap is $24 million lol.

I'm confident that this company will be bought out for $3/share. The CEO will probably able to get a loan and once he takes the company private, he can use the cash from the company to pay it back. Plus, he can always take this company and bring it to public in Hong Kong which would make him even more money.

I bought another 5000 shares today at $0.365, hard to resist at that price. Avg cost is now down to $0.388 including commissions. I don't really know if the price movement today is still as a result of the price of gold fluctuating but regardless I'm still happy to own it, hopefully I'm not eating my words when the financials come out in March and definitely not when the revised NI 43-101 is released in April.

i'm still kicking myself for a small mistake that cost me 36-40grand profit.

i shorted 4 contracts of gold before that drop.
shorted 4 contracts of euro dollar.

i lowered my stop loss to early, market came up and just touched it then dropped.
fuck.

if anyone was wondering, gold dropped because "someone" sold 3 000 000 ounces of gold, in 5 minutes.

I'm getting raped currently at TD Waterhouse but my new quarter starts in April and from there I will have unlimited trades at a flat $9.99 which will help immensely. I am currently paying $29 for most trades and above that for some larger $$$ amounts. TAG cost me over $60 to buy!

im with hsbc and they charge me a flat fee of $6.88 per trade
i opened it as a tfsa so i can skip some tax on capital gains
but they really rape me on exchange rates whenever i buy us stocks
had to open another margin account in us funds to bypass that crap
but it sucks cuz i havent figured out a way to effectively reduce taxes from any gains yet
without having to leave the funds in there for many years
the plus side is i can do swing trades without having to wait for settlement

TFSA... I am a TD customer and just wanted to use Waterhouse for ease of integration with the rest of my accounts.

In unrelated news, TAG hit another monster well and currently the SP is relatively unchanged - anybody who has some money sitting around it's a great bet, they have 3 other wells in testing right now and most are bound to flow oil! With production of 4000BOED and 5000 expected before March is over, TAG is very cheap compared to NZ. Regardless I own both.

Spoiler!

I have TD waterhouse too and paid my fair share of >29 bucks per trade. One day I called in and asked nicely if I can get cheaper trades and they set mine to 9.99 forever. I was only a couple thousand short of the 50k threshold though. YMMV?

Added 5550 shares of YNG @ .36 as well. I'm hoping a floor will be estabilished and buyers will come back.
