Earlier this month, one of those Fools, All-Star BuffettJunior1, tapped the stock as a questionable income opportunity:
It seems that if you just put the word "gold" in your company name the stock is automatically worth a thousand times its fair value. This is the same trick used in the 90's where all you had to do was put "dot com" in the company name and the stock price would shoot up t! o some r idiculous valuation. I was also very surprised to see that this company pays a dividend. Since this is still an exploration stage company and has obviously never been profitable, then why in the world would they pay a dividend? ... I truly cannot understand why anyone would invest in this...
