"because I didn't understand the fundamentals of the company properly"

Hello Buddy and SJB.

Now you have hit the nail on the head. (and I suppose other's have too). It's as plain as that... understanding the fundamentals and having faith in good management.
As I have stated before, I have dropped my stop loss on EXS. I will ride the ups and downs, I will go with the flow and I will fear no evil. I am in! I am a converted one! I now understand stop-loss - they're for trader's not investors of the long-term variety..! The 'boss' and I are in.
Basic really. We understand the stop loss situation and that's that!... We're over that and moving on with EXS for the long-term.

Thanks Buddy for your comments and I do respect your point of view.

MTW.

Now, let me re-print my earlier PS from an earlier post... Please assist me if you can with the information, if you have any...

"PS

Can anyone out there in HC land tell me where I can attend a conference or training session for mining or exploration. Something which will give me a better understanding of geophysical sciences involved in exploration and mining. I have phoned various companies and TAFE college's and checked out the web but to no avail. TAFE do have some courses, but they are all aprt of a training package for employee's of mining companies. Surely there must be someplace I can attend to gain knowledge in this field.

Looking forward to your response."
