cp82, for my money the rainfall in Australia in the last 18 months has been a far more sinister enemy to the mining spec investor than the global financial problems. At least with the financial problems there are enough fundamentals, opinions and charts out there such that the experienced investor can step around the problems to some extent and, with a little luck, can even benefit by taking advantage of the dips.....but who can predict the rain?? EXE is not the only stock that has caused me pain due to the rain. In the last 2 wet seasons we have what is described as 1 in 100 year events...and we got 2 in a row !! But I think the problems caused by rain and flooding in eastern Australia are pretty well documented and perhaps I should be grateful that this is the worst of my problems and I have not lost my home or my life in the floods as so many poors souls have in the last 2 years.
