Once again we whittle a bit off the edges and come up smack dap into the 620 area. Still cause building on GLD in a trading range between 60-66 after the selling climax down into the June 13 low. Stocks continue to absorb into resistance areas with some running well into old May highs.

June 13 low is marked on many stocks with August 9/23 highs marking some resistance with shallow pullbacks from the August highs.

Carry on.

NXG on fire afterhours trading up to 5 before retreating back to 3.90. What gives?? 22% normal volume after the bell. Can't find any news

[faramir]

Bearfest, saw the same interview you did on ROBTV. My numbers are a little different. GG gave up 40% of its shares to gain a 23% increase in production. So shares should fall 17% - another 7 % to go? Interesting this wasn't put to a vote. Smells of pure desperation. A rookie move by Goldcorp?

[faramir]

Not to beat a dead horse or anything, but a poster at another gold forum made the point that GG management called Glamis overvalued back when the competed for Wheaton. He has a point. It's not just how many fewer ounces Glamis produces, but the quality of that production. It's comparing apples and oranges. Goldcorp properties produce at a negative cash cost, while Glamis is well over $200 an ounce to get it out of the ground. This new guy at the helm sure knows how to give Goldcorp a hair cut.

Oh, well, from here to 390 on the HUI all the heavy lifting in my portfolio will be done by Barrick. Goldcorp could very well a non-participant. Which begs the question, do I double up to at least break even, or wait until we hit 390, pull back into the 340s and then add something?

I don't know. GG acquired a few befofe this merger. GLG tried to take GG and failed. No money is changing hands just shares both unheadged already. If GG offered to much it is mute now because the premium has been erased after today's action in GLG. I haven't really seen any pundits put forth their take on this merger. Only thing I did read of interest is that some unnamed analyst thought GG could be a takeover target now that their shares are so low.
I added a little GG around $27. As long as gold goes up I see no problem.

Here's the interview. Scroll down to 6:30 p.m. for "the Business News..."

Based on Yahoo's numbers, I agree with your 23% number. McEwan used 30%.

No vote? Goldcorp says it was to ward off hostile suitors. Glamis, by contrast, is legally obliged to put it to a vote. Big deal.

Who you should contact:
Please refer questions to NASDAQ MarketWatch at 800.211.4953


ARGGGHHHHH!!! I guess I will get smashed this morning when I thought the stock was going to take off. Scam, sham, thank you mammm....


No action in my account yet. No clue if I sell shares later if they will be taken away since I bought afterhours.
No clue why it is illegal, how a firm can do this, what will happen to my realized gains of 15% from the daytrade yesterday, why the firm was buying in the first place, if the shares will actually be reentered again, whether the stock craters or skyrockets, how this will effect margin (small fractrion) or any of this. What a pain in the ass.
-I do not deserve the inconvience because of someone elses mistake or stupid trading. I know it is a pipedream but the company buying all the shares should take the pipe. I do not see how they could have done this on accident or why they do not deserve all losses involved.

Maybe they were meaning to put in orders for the morning and pushed day +ext on accident or something. Now they may have the option to say forget it now....someone got a free test drive and was able to see everyones hands regardless....

called the 800 number but it puts you on hold forever..

Rough break.. in times past, I read about these busted trades occasionally on IDS.

... and there was you thinking it was too good to be true. Here's a 911 for you, the casino is rigged! Try to avoid trading after hours, though.

One thing I wonder about is how do you place multiple bad trades when it is limit orders only.

Faramir - do you mind explaining note 2 of GG latest quarter? Where it talks about GG's loss of $1662 an oz. "as a byproduct of copper and silver sales" or something of that nature?
I look at the Alumbrera mine in the report and wonder why on earth with a loss like that would you even bother to keep a mine open at that cost?

Other than that every mine is profitable and overall GG's earnings doubled last quarter and year over year.

How about a nice little comeback for the weekend?
