Darn, I was just looking at Can-v yesterday, comparing it to MTB-V and DEC-V.
Makes no sense that Can-v has more than double the market cap of MTB/DEC-v (Currently its at a 20/80 split, but could be 40/60 split depending on the S/H vote in Jan) when both companies have similar initial results.
Look at the past new releases and you will see some of their initial results from the Stewart lake area of BC,
i.e: Hole 5 of 39.63m of 4.7g/t of gold
Hole 6 of 55.18m of 9.64g/t of gold
including 24.7m of 20.87g/t of gold
And holes 1 and 2 were of similar results.
Not to mention, more news coming next week on the next batch of assays.
I'm invested in MTB, but if MTB/DEC would to get noticed, DEC-V would definitely be the clear winner in the short term as current o/s shares are just at 11million and they do own the majority % of the Red Cliff Project.

with a long list of earnings coming out this coming week, where does everybody think the broader market is heading? we all saw what happened when alcoa beat their EPS estimate. should we expect the same to happen especially with the financials? a lot of people are saying that jpm and bac are going to report a gain while citi will report a loss - despite that, i have a feeling we are heading up.
Would love to hear your guys' thoughts

it seems like the economy is still in the shits and our stocks are going up for reasons i dont consider justified

$500 can barely cover the commission costs on the way in & out. If you want to be serious about it get at least a couple grand or else it's better just stick with paper trading.

I think only HK and China's stocks are bought in a lot, like in a hand, you have to buy 500 shares. North America, you buy whatever you want, even 1 share.

Well, if a broker let you open a trading account with only $500, I'd trade high volume penny stocks like SIRI and ETFC...

only 50% of your cap gain is taxed and any cap loss can be carried over
