1. Plain boring fact: the company goes back to Dalmine Italy 1907

2. Read this. It's the Tenaris SEC 6K filing. Learn something today instead of preaching nonsense.

Whisper and Ferd have got this play right...it's simple, and it doesn't need a 50 page report to understand this stock. You buy it, you enjoy the dividends (correct whisper) it runs with copper and there's nothing else to say.

As for disappointing you with the lack of TAspeak...well darn sorry 'bout that southshore, but from what i understand terms like "head and shoulders top" are just words used to describe chart patterns. The chart pattern on PCU doesn't need a bunch of fancy terms to nail completely. It goes up. Meanwhile southshore, you should look at the % of insider holdings and then try to explain how the hedge funds could ever rule PCU. ]]>

Deremate was bought by MELI back in 2005 (i can also tell you the date, the price and who lent mercadolibre the money if you want), but then the deremate web was re-started late 2006 by the old owners under the name "dereto" and still uses all the deremate web addresses. Go to dereto.com, then click on Argentina (for example) and find out yourself. Or if you like, ask Galperin. He'll tell you the same as me.

I read the filings...that means ALL the filings, not just the ones that suit your own cause. I also read what's going on in Latin America.

You wrong. Me right. Goodnight.]]>

I mean, he's only written on the company 13 times in the last 12 months. And if you read the disclosure, not only does he own shares, he's also with a company that gets paid by NG! Nothing like being unbiased on a stock, eh Mike?

Meanwhile, the reality is that Mike's "stock of the year 2007" has been a complete disaster, and the management were shown as incompetent fools over the Galore Creek fiasco.

Keep pumping, Mike! Your back pocket demands it!

From that time until now, the US dollar has lost 92% of its value. Therefore by your argument I should have rejected the dollar for the whole of the 20th century...luckily I didn't!

Easy for an analyst from a company that finances KRY to call it a buy, isn't it? More difficult but more honest would to tell her clients that she's been wrong on this call for years and try to repair some of the damage she's caused by saying "walk away while you can".

$10 a share target with the dilution this thing has to go through to get to production? It's irresponsible at best. If KRY does reach $10 it'll be on gold price alone and you can bet other gold miners are 10 bagger in the same time period.]]>

Again, a well reasoned post.

Not sure about your reference to hyperinflation, however. Though US inflation is certainly above the official %, there is no way that the US can fall into a hyperspiral. Hyperinflation is an overused and badly understood concept in any country that has not directly experienced it.

Dear Sir/Madam,

It would seem you have not done sufficient due
diligence. Neither myself or anybody connected with
Hallgarten and Company, either directly or indirectly,
has any position either short or long in KAL Energy
Inc. Our note was a short call on your stock,
something that is perfectly valid.

This can be verified by reading our original article
available on our website, hallgartenco.com. We
will also be very happy to make a full disclosure to
any relevant authority.

We are not responsible for factual errors made by the
owners and operators of yahoo.com.

The title of your recent PR is misleading to your
shareholders, based on an error made by a third party
and should therefore be changed.

We are glad that you have finally seen fit to make a
fuller disclosure of company policy to your
shareholders regarding KALG.ob and its corporate
background.

Yours faithfully,
Mark Turner]]>
