What was your motive for original purchase pixel, and how long ago? Has that original purchase criteria changed over time?

As to when and why, see the weekly chart:



Yes, I've traded some in 2010 and 2011, but accepted the cap return and dividend, which allowed me to hold my current position. While, from a "had I sold at the very top"-perspective, that position is currently 3c under water, I am taking the view that a team that delivered a multi-bagger once, can do so again.

The results are good but nowhere near exciting yet and not much to create great excitement. I expect that many rode EXS into the IVA action and then moved on to more prospective companies. Management did very well and have shown skill, but now there is no easy gold and proximal copper things have changed. Perhaps for the better, but the chart shows that most of the larger people have moved on.

Same thoughts here;
and then I saw the Board came out with a "take no action" advice. Somewhat more comforting.

A friend reckons Sol simply has to make this offer because they hold over 20% - but they don't really want any more than a seat on the board and a piece of the action. In any case, the 19c bid is ludicrous when we look at the cash the guys have in the bank, plus royalties rolling in...

To me, all of that is funnymental - the chart tells me trading went already well above those 19c, so it's unlikely it'll succeed. Let's just hope the board doesn't waste any money on a defense - there shouldn't even be the need for an "independent valuation" to find out that the offer is neither fair nor reasonable.
