Uranium pretenders!!!

[insider]

I've noticed that some threads have a lot of ramping about stocks; "buy this one!" or "it's gonna go off"... How about a thread that actually spoke of companies that would have NO CHANCE OF BECOMING SUBSTANCIAL. I’d like to see this thread as a siphon to filter out the ‘URANIUM PRETENDERS’.

The Uranium spot price has risen 927% in the past 6 years so there’d be a lot of companies made simply to profit off investors (There are now over 400 U companies ). Which ones could they be?

IT IS IMPORTANT TO TO PROVIDE RELEVANT INFORMATION TO SUPPORT CLAIMS...

I think there's potential for this to be interpreted as downramping unless there is some significant analysis and justification of opinions here. Could get nasty.....

Oh for sure... What i'd like to see are some balanced arguments both for and against companies...

Why not? I hate to be branded as ramping or down-ramping when you try to bring in something new. It is really bad for free thinking. It will lead to no fresh investment ideas. People will be limited to think AEX, AGS, BHP, BMN, EXT, and SMM are the only uranium stocks.

Are they really good? Why not talk about it. There are a lot of bad directors and management teams around. They try to fool you, and trap you. A bit of early warning is totally necessary, could save you a lot of money.

As always, whoever read it will be responsible to verify the correctness of info provided. But free thinking is the key to the success of any forum.

What are you going on about mmmmmming? The entire point is, and you and insider have agreed, that there needs to be analysis when new stocks are presented. That's all. Doesn't even need to be much. Just a couple of comments of why it's good or not. Then it can be discussed.

sorry guys,

If anyone is buying on a hope to sell higher, then same person needs to be optimistic......promote their business to the best of their ability....practically, if you buy some shares in any company whether U or any other metal, you physically own part of that business.

Now, If you want a subjective discussion, then you CANNOT get subject discussion with owner of business, I personally never seen a holder of any stock down ramping his holding.....as if anyone will want to lose!

From experience, get ideas & general research points that will SUPPORT your OWN findings, do not think any ramping whether up or down is a subjective discussion.......logically, no one will waste their time to ramp a stock up or down if they have no interest in it going higher or lower....once personal interest is involved then no one can have a subjective discussion.

conclusion: confirm on forums what you already know or get hints to expand your research.......there are no volunteer tipers in this game that could tell us what to buy or sell & guarantee success.

Actually, I think all contribution to this thread is ramping to Uranium : , you want a proof??? Look at the list of those writing....all U stocks holders

cheers,

I agree to some degree. Even when someone is providing all the facts they are supporting their own stock, usually. It happens in the academic world as well - people write hypothesis and arrange studies to support their own theories....However, there are many people who provide positive analysis on stocks here that they do not own...

Clarrification:

Are you saying you get a more objective opinion about a stock if someone doesn't own it?

If so, say you have a few people discussing a stock on a forum and none of them own it, they are being objective right?

So, you could have an objective discussion about a stock that is overrated??

Maybe??

Unless you have a Uranium mining licence at the moment . . . you're a pretender.

There are too many variables to discard anyone.
They all need good news from Cigar Lake (delays . . and the longer the better) at the start of Feb.
They all need the change of the 3 mine rule and it would also help if they had the support of relevant State Gov.
A continuing rise in the price of U through 2007 would be nice too!
plus
anyone have all the info for the total number of reactors coming online in the next 20 years and the number currently operational. It would also help to have a forecast for global nuclear reactor fuel requirements vs uranium supply ( including mine output by country, inventories (especially Russian) and tails upgrading ) for the next 20 years.

A lot to consider before somesays XYZ wont get to mine ...just my
cheers

My point is that those who will say buy or sell now, are totally different from those who discuss issues inside the company & how good/bad it is.

Some are very smart to divert the reader opinion to buy or sell without saying it.

My attitude is always to read info, support it with evidence & if I found anyone is wrong then I get to correct them AFTER I done my research. I basically consider the forum as an ideas poll that I take from & add to for general benefit, if good ideas turned to be more than bad ones then obviously I make my OWN mind to a certain decision.

Many opinions in here are excellent, but they are as good as how will you evaluate them, if you have no idea about a certain company & you've done no research, then every idea is a good idea...because you know nothing else.

cheers,

The reason why I really like the topic of the "Uranium Pretenders" is that it gives members a chance to make a decision on which stocks might not be the right pick for long term investing... It also gives members a chance to discuss their suspicions on anything from directors to drilling results...

I've also seen how some people are grilled by other members when they say a negative comment about a Company or a member... Well in here it is welcome, and so are positive comments...

I completely agree...

Or you could have ethical problems and just not trade uranium at all...
