This is ridiculous. SWC is a screaming buy here!

If I had to guess, I'd say a combination of the market, the fact that the mine is risky and takes away their focus from palladium (which is easily the most awesome metal), and maybe that they're selling off their own stock to purchase this mine?

I don't really know anything about markets though, I just buy things that are very volatile.

Oh well - I'm long my SWC shares so I'm not going to sweat it. Platinum and Palladium will be scarce in the future so SWC will rise no doubt! If I had some extra cash around I'd buy more at these prices!

I sold at ~22 regretably around 2 weeks ago, but I bought in again just now at 18.34, so maybe I can make that back?

SWC on CC "The Peregrine transaction provides us with broader diversification into copper -- a metal with favorable long-term fundamentals driven by growing market demand -- as well as meaningful exposure to gold."
